3 D Card with Filmstrip Ribbon

Create a beautiful card with Ranger inks and 3-D elements including filmstrip ribbon, hinge clip and a bottle cap. Use this dimensional card designed by Lisa Fulmer as a decorating accent for a mantel or shelf.

Materials:

• Dark colored cardstock
• Watermark resist inkpad and a circular stamp
• Clear UTEE and a heat gun
• Plain grungeboard, a square stamp and an inkpad (I used purple ink)
• Spray wash paint (I used Day-Glo Red by Stencil 1)
• Distress Crackle paint - Clear rock candy
• Selection of alcohol inks (I used the Brights line)
• Bottle cap with a circle die-cut image
• Filmstrip ribbon and a strip of white paper
• Hinge clip, 3 washers, 2 hitch fasteners
• Hole punch, large glue dots, paint marker

Instructions:

1. Trim and fold cardstock to desired size.
    
2. Use circular stamp with watermark resist ink pad to stamp a pattern on the front.
    
3. After pattern is completely dry, stamp one last circle, and sprinkle UTEE over it while wet.
    
4. Shake off excess UTEE and apply the heat gun to image until UTEE is melted (it will be glossy and pock-marked); set aside.
    
5. Drip alcohol ink around the edges of bottle cap to tint (I used Sunshine Yellow); allow to dry.
    
6. Adhere circle die-cut image inside bottle cap and seal inside edge to the cap with a line of Glossy Accents.
    
7. Apply Crackle Accents over the top of image; set aside to dry.
    
8. Trim grungeboard to desired size and shape, spritz with spray wash paint; allow to dry.
    
9. Stamp square image in the center of grungeboard, then apply Distress Crackle paint to the edges; set aside to dry.
    
10. Drip and dab various colors of alcohol inks on top of a length of filmstrip ribbon; allow to dry.
     
11. Tint the washers with a drop or two of desired alcohol ink colors; allow to dry.
     
12. Trim a strip of white paper to fit behind filmstrip and punch small hole at each end of both.
     
13. Attach the white paper to filmstrip by screwing in a hitch fastener through the holes at each end.
     
14. Use glue dots to adhere the washers to the center of the UTEE-embossed image.
     
15. Glue the bottle cap to the grungeboard, attach a hinge clip, and adhere to card with glue dots.
     
16. Use glue dots to adhere the filmstrip to the card.
     
17. Use the paint marker to rim the edge of the card with a bright color.
