I started out with the Theme Thursday challenge prompt of "Flourishes" and then saw the theme at Sunday Postcard Art of "Double Take" and with some experimenting, I found that I could use my flourish stamp in 2 different ways. Of course, there's the basic stamping of it directly, but if you look at my background, it was created by inking a shadow stamp and kissing it with the flourish stamp to remove the ink creating a mirror image of the flourish. I liked the effect, and it was fun to do! Flourish stamp and shadow stamp are both from Hero Arts, quote is from Donna Downey from Unity Stamps.
