Movie Night Card and Box by Ellen Haxelmans

How About a Movie Night?!

Do you love movies? Today Ellen had created a set of projects that is perfect for a movie night! She started out with a card featuring the trio of kitties in a movie theater from our Newton's Movie Night Stamp Set.

Isn't the coloring on those kitties amazing? She also colored a pair of 3D glasses and some popcorn kernels and cut the images out using the coordinating Newton's Movie Night Die Set. For the background she used our Popcorn Stencil with light colored ink to create a popcorn pattern on scalloped square that was cut out using our Frames Squared Die Set. She also cut out a red square with rounded corners using the same die set to frame it.

Inside the card, is the fun "movie night" sentiment, added onto a tag shape (cut out using our Framework Die Set). She also added more popcorn, cut out using the bonus shape on the coordinating Newton's Movie Night Die Set.

To make it even more fun, she created a decoration for a popcorn box! For this she cut out shapes using our  Circle Frame Die Set and Heart Frame Die Set. Then she used the same Popcorn Stencil for the background and added the sentiment, 3D glasses, popcorn and stars using our Newton's Movie Night Stamp Set. 

Instructions from Ellen:

Below we have some details from Ellen on how she colored and created the images for this set:

1. (left photo) The images from the Newton's Movie Night Stamp Set are colored with Zig Clear Color Brush Markers, listed below:
   1. Orange Cat: No.052 Bright Yellow, No.070 Orange, No. 72 Beige and No.222 Pink Flamingo

2. (center photo) Cut out a square and heart shape. Use the Popcorn Stencil with Antique Linen Distress Ink. Afterwards you ink the sides with Vintage Photo Distress ink; this gives it a light burned look (yummy). As last step I sprinkled some drops on top. The same inks where used on the popcorn shapes.
   
   
3. (right photo) As last step I die cut out some colored paper. The colors I used were picked to match with the image and popcorn box: red, white and yellow.
