Sunset & sailboats using the silicone craft sheet reflection technique!

For a FREE PDF of the instructions, click on Print Recipe below.

Start with a 5" x 3-3/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock. Position it on the Stamparatus and place your sailboat stamp where you want your sailboat reflections to be. They should be closer to the left since you will want the finished reflections closer to the right. Remove the cardstock and put a Silicone Craft Sheet in the Stamparatus. Ink up the stamp with Memento Tuxedo Black and stamp onto the silicone sheet. Then carefully put your cardstock face down over top and close the plate. Stamp the sailboats again on a scrap of Whisper White, not using the silicone sheet this time.

Using sponge brayers, brayer Mango Melody ink on the top of the cardstock, moving downward and on the bottom, moving upward. Brayer some Poppy Parade ink lightly in the middle. Place a Post-It Note over the sailboat reflections, about 1/4" above them. Brayer some more Poppy Parade ink more strongly along the edge of the Post-It Note to create the horizon. Move the Post-It Note to cover the deep red section and stamp the waves from High Tide in Balmy Blue.

Die cut the sailboats from the scrap and colour them in with Blends. Colour the reflections to match. Stamp the sentiment in the bottom left corner. Die cut the sun from Mango Melody cardstock. Adhere the sailboats above the reflection and the sun in the top left using Stampin' Dimensionals. Add 3 Basic Rhinestone Jewels. Adhere to a Basic Black mat and Poppy Parade card base.
