Hello Everyone this Mixed Media Monday we are making a Thank You card using Darkroom Door from Topflight Stamps! I created a card that makes a nice impact using only 3 steps. It is fast & fun to make multiples of these.
Best part of this card is, it would be easy to change them up just by changing the color palette & filmstrip theme. Darkroom Door has some fabulous new Filmstrip stamps, so there are lots of options. All the supplies will be listed below.
Start By Stamping
To get the background going simply use different inks on your stamp pad, mist with water & stamp. I did this a few times with the same inked stamp & choose one that was more faded. This technique is called "stamping off'. Darkroom Door has many Word Block stamps so it is easy to make cards for all sorts of occasions.
Yes Embossing!
Using some embossing to make the frame stand out works really well. It is a quick way to add some texture too. Love this Spiral Notebook frame.
Focal Image
Lastly the Paris Filmstrip was stamped on some parchment looking paper. 2 of the images from the strip were cut out & adhered to give my card that pop of interest. I love how detailed these stamps are. I chose not to use emboss so as not lose that look.
I may have to get this one, called Butterflies. It has so many possibilities!
You could pair it with the butterfly background stamp. They would be great using the same technique as my Thank You card. Here is used in this brick making project.
