Stamping with reflections techniques

So here is the third technique Tim Holtz taught tonight. The only one I could do tonight because I can finds glossy card stock !?!? This involved stamping on embossing folders and getting reverse images and then framing another stamp within the embossing folder! I cut a slit in the top of the folder for the tag. I am very happy with the end result. I'd love some feedback. Thanks

      This is the Fancy Floral Frames, A Texture Fade Tim Holtz Alterations Sizzix Embossing Folder. I am really enjoying the class, it has been very eye opening and I have had at least two ahaa moments and it only day three. I would highly recommend it for 35 dollars you can't beat it!!!!

    Great job on the tag. I have just ordered the reflection stamps, will probably take about 2 wks to get to me so I'll have to improvise too.

      I wish I had Tim's Stash so I didn't have to improvise but we all can't be Craft God's.
