Making a Reflected Lake Scene + Video
Happy Saturday, friends! Thank you for joining me for another crafty share. I’m creating a reflection scene today using the No Better Words Unity Stamp Company sentiment kit. I loved the idea of those trees causing a reflection in a lake. It is a lovely backdrop for a birthday card or really any occasion.

The Card
The Details
I created a similar card with a blended sunset scene. I love how this stamp set can be used to create so many different feels. This time I decided to lighten it up with a lovely sunrise. I walked out into our backyard one morning and noticed all the beautiful pinks and purples that appeared as the sun rose. I took that as my inspiration for the blended colors. Check out the video for the entire process of blending and stamping to see how this card came together.
Distress ink colors: fossilized amber, festive berries, dusty concord, tumbled glass, faded jeans, hickory smoke, and black soot
Technique tip: Use an acetate sheet to help line up your reflected image. That way you can see the alignment before you commit to stamping.
