Project One: Trio
Night and Day, Kindred Stamps
When you have a friend with you both Night and Day, you are always with someone how trusts you. This simple cards features all three of the images from the Night and Day stamp set with pattern paper to signify both worlds they each live in.
The three images were colored with Olo Markers (See Color Guide) and fussy cut out on the line. With a black fine liner, the images were edged to hide any cutting mishaps. The images were backed with thin foam tape and set aside.
The sentiment was stamped in black ink and trimmed to a thin strip. A piece of scrap black cardstock was trimmed to be the mat to the sentiment. The sentiment was adhered to the mat and then a thin foam tape strip was applied.
The Galactic Pattern Paper makes this card come together in a breeze. The sunrise scene pattern paper and the galaxy pattern paper were trimmed down to 2 1/8 inches by 5.5 inches. A piece of gold cardstock was trimmed to 0.5 inch by 5.5 inch strip.
To assemble, an A2 card base (4.25 inches by 5.5 inches) was prepped. The sunrise scene was glued to the left side of the card base and the galaxy on the right. To hide any cutting variants and to signify the transition of night and day, the gold cardstock strip was adhered in the center. The Thief was centered first on the card panel. Then the Knight and the Woman respectively. Finally, the sentiment was centered and adhered.
This simple card showcases the worlds that they live in and was a breeze to make.
Card Size: 5.5 inches by 4.25 inches (A2)
Project Two: Total Eclipse
Night and Day, Kindred Stamps
A total eclipse is not only a sight to see but also the way to break the curse! So this card had to be made for the love that couldn’t be separated even if they are in different familial classes.
A 5 inch by 7 inches piece of smooth white cardstock will be the base for the scene. With a pencil, the sword and floor were sketched. The negative moon/ sun from the Desert Scene Stencil was traced at the top of the card. The lines were traced with a black fine liner pen and pencil markings erased.
A piece of masking paper was trimmed to 2 inches by 8 inches. The sword and sun were also traced onto a piece of masking paper and then cut out. The masks were applied to the card to allow for ink blending. The area just outside the sun was inked with Sweet Corn (Gina K Designs) whereas the remainder of the background was inked from outer edge to center with In the Navy (Gina K Designs). Before the mask were removed, the inked panel was spattered with Perfect Pearls, in the color Perfect Pearl. The masks were removed and the card panel was allowed to dry.
The Knight and Woman from the Night and Day set were stamped with alcohol safe ink and colored with Olo Markers (See Color Guide). The images were fussy cut our leaving a thin white boarder so the images had contrast on the dark panel. The sentiment was stamped in black ink and trimmed into a thin strip. A piece of black cardstock was adhered as a mat. Thin foam tape was applied to the images and the sentiment.
The remainder of the image was colored with Olo Markers. The church floor was colored with NG3/ NG1/ and NG0. The sun was colored with WG9/ WG7/ WG5 with darkest in the center. Finally, the sword was colored with CG3/ CG1 on the blade and CG7/ CG5/ CG3 on the handle.
The card panel was adhered to an A7 card base. The Knight and the Woman were adhered on each side of the sword. The sentiment was placed across the blade. The total eclipse turned our so much better than my brain thought it would. I was different coloring a sun with dark grey but it was worth it!
Card Size: 5 inches by 7 inches (A7)
Project Three: Spinning Love
Night or Day they are never alone. This reveal card shows how day becomes night and night becomes day. Lets break down this card.
Night and Day, Kindred Stamps
A card base was prepped to 5.5 inches by 5.5 inches. This was set aside for assembly later. A piece of smooth cardstock was cut to 5.25 inches by 5.25 inches. Using circle dies, the 4 inch diameter circle was die cut out of masking paper. A second circle, 3.5 inch diameter, was die cut out of smooth white cardstock.
Night and Day, Kindred Stamps
The larger circle mask was centered on the square 5.25inch by 5.25 inch piece of cardstock. Using a black fine liner pen the circle was traced. The masked panel was then ink blended with Jelly Bean Green and Fresh Asparagus ink (Gina K Designs). Gold spatter was applied. The mask was removed and the panel was set to dry.
Night and Day, Kindred Stamps
The 3.5 inch circle scene was designed first. The Woman and Wolf were stamped with alcohol safe ink. With the Desert Scene Stencil, the mountains were traced onto the circle. A horizon line was also sketched. Finally, using a small circle, the moon was sketched. All lines were then traced with an alcohol safe marker. The Woman and Wolf were colored with Olo Markers (See Color Guide). The remainder of the scene was colored with Olo Markers (Moon: Y2.0/ Sky: BG0.8/ Grass: 1.8/ Mountain: WG7/ WG5).
Night and Day, Kindred Stamps
This colored scene was centered on the inked blended panel leaving an equal boarder exposed. The colored scene circle was traced with pencil, including the location of the horizon line. The circle was traced with a black fine liner pen. The colored scene was removed for the design of the daylight scene. The Knight was stamped in alcohol safe ink, and the exact same scene was drawn. The Knight was colored with Olo Markers (See Color Guide). The remainder of the scene was colored with Olo Markers (Sun: Y2.3/ Sky BG0.2/ Grass: G1.2/ Mountain: WG5/ WG3). Some birds were were drawn in with a fine liner pen. Finally, the frame around the small circled scene was colored with the K Olo Marker.
Night and Day, Kindred Stamps
The colored scene panels were ready to become an interactive element. With a pencil the center point of both small circle scenes marked. Using a ruler and a craft knife, the scenes were cut on the same side in the same spot. When cutting the panel with the knight, caution was taken to not cut into the black frame. The stand-alone circle was thread through the large panel. A small piece of card stock was glued to the back (not to the large panel) to act as a stopper. This will prevent the circle from being twisted completely out. A second thin strip of cardstock was applied to the back of the small circle on large panel to act as the handle.
Test run of the interactive element
The sentiment was stamped and matted on a piece of black cardstock and adhered to the thin cardstock handle. This was allowed to dry before playing with the mechanism. A little arrow was penned onto the handle and the handle was trimmed to fit the card front.
A piece of black cardstock was trimmed to 5.5 inches by 5.5 inches and adhered to the white card base. The completed interactive card panel was popped up with thin foam tape only around the edges and corners to allow the circle mechanism to rotate.
This two lovers transition at evening and morning and in this card you can watch them transform!
