Adorable Filmstrip Valentine’s Card

By Ceal Pritchett

Hello everyone!
Today I am sharing how I made this filmstrip valentines card using some Memento inks.

Skill: Intermediate
Time: 1 hour

Directions:

Gather your supplies. To make this card, you will need a valentines set (preferably with small images to fit in the film strip), a film/postage strip die, and sereral colors of ink.

I started with a white top folding A2 card base and a white panel for the images. I used a set from Lawn Fawn that has coordinating stamp, coloring stencils and dies.  I used Memento inks in several colors to color the images and a stamp/film strip die.

Step 1:
Stamp the images in VersaFine Nocturne ink on a panel of white cardstock.

Step 2:
Using stencil No. 1, color the images in the desired colors. I used Morocco for the fox and Desert Sand for the deer.

Step 3:
Using stencil No. 2, color the remaining images in the desired color. I used Desert Sand for the bear and Gray Flannel for the seal and Bunny just heavier handed on the seal.  I used Angel Pink for the ears.

Step 4:
Using the coordinating dies and a die cutting machine, cut out the images.

Step 5:
Cut out the postage/film strip and then color with coordinating stencil. I used Summer Sky.

Step 6:
Cut out a background using a heart cover plate.

Step 7:
Stamp the greeting and then cut down at an angle. Put all the elements together on the card base.

The postage/film strip will hang over a little and will need to be trimmed. You can prevent this by madding a horizontal card rather than a vertical one.
