hi I'm Brian Mackenzie and today I'm going to show you how to use film on card making cards alright and today I'm going to use a stamp set called embrace light from step embrace life sorry from Stampin Up and what we need are these two images and I'm going to use my basic black ink pad and I wanted to show you that there are two different kinds of vellum there's a card stock vellum and there is a paper bill the paper vellum as you can see is quite a bit more flimsy than the card stock film and they both have their uses you just use whatever one you feel like using alright what I'm going to do is ink up my leafed image and my basic black now what I'm trying to do is create spaces where I can put the flowers in alright and I'm ready for my flowered image paint that up in black as well and just put that in amongst these leaves right here and I'm going to do another one up above this top leaf you can either use blender pen with ink pads or you can use markers but what I'm going to do is I'm going to turn the image over and today I'm going to use my markers and using the markers it's pretty quick on this if you use the blender pen in the the inks ink pads it does take a little bit longer and your image tends to be a bit lighter but it still is very beautiful so if you don't have markers that is a great way to do that now that I finished coloring that in I'm gonna as you can see the right side how it's not quite as bright as the colored inside and that's the side we're going to use but before we do that I will show you really quickly how you can use the ink pads to color in an image you'll find my cameo coral really quick in here oh and what you do is you just kind of loosen up your ink pad squish it really well and so you have some ink on the lid and you'll just take your blender pin pick up your ink and you can just start coloring away with it all right but now we're going to finish our project and what I'm going to do is I'm going to actually cut along this lot around not exactly but just give it a general outline along there just to give it a little bit of shape on the outside and I don't look really neat on our card I've just got some very vanilla card stock and I like to do my cards this way just so they stand up really nice and pretty we're gonna put it up here like that about there and then I'm going to use some taffeta ribbon and if you want to know how to make a bow watch closely I do mine a left over right and I pull it so they're up and down the one that's still attached I fold over my finger and take the other end and bring it through my basic black and all it says is embrace life and we're just gonna stamp it right up here and there is a finished card on how to use vellum on making cards
