In Faith – Foiling and Diecutting

Hello crafty friends! I’m Jean, a papercrafter blogging at Right as Rain. I am delighted to be on the Spellbinders blog today sharing CAS cards created with the Faith Collection. With this collection, you can craft beautiful cards for a variety of faith-based occasions – baptisms, confirmations, first communions, and bereavement – to name a few. Let’s take a look!

On the first card, I combined a die-cut Kaleidoscope Cross with a glimmer-foiled sentiment.

• With the Kaleidoscope Cross set, die-cut top pieces of cross from Whip Cream cardstock. Die-cut bottom pieces from Brush Gold cardstock.
• Glue layers together and assemble cross.
• With the Faith Glimmer Sentiments set, foil sentiment in Gold on Pool Play cardstock panel. Trim panel to 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″.
• Adhere cross to sentiment panel; attach assembly to a Brush Gold card base.

On the second card, I combined the Gleaming Cross with a glimmer-foiled sentiment.

• Foil Gleaming Cross pieces in Matte Gold on Whip Cream cardstock. The smaller piece of the cross is foiled a total of three times. Cut foiled pieces with coordinating dies.
• Assemble cross by taping pieces together at center from the back; adhere center piece at the junction.
• With the Faith Glimmer Sentiments set, foil sentiment in Matte Gold on Whip Cream cardstock. Cut with coordinating die.
• Using largest rectangle in the Nestabilities Essential Rectangles set, cut two panels from Brush Gold cardstock.

• Dry-emboss one panel with Inspire folder. Add dry-embossed panel to front of card base. Adhere assembled cross to front with foam adhesive.
• Add other gold panel to inside of card. Adhere sentiment.

On the final card, a slight variation of the second card, I combined the Gleaming Cross with a glimmer-foiled sentiment.

• Foil Gleaming Cross pieces in Gold on Pool Play cardstock. The smaller piece of the cross is foiled a total of three times. Cut foiled pieces with coordinating dies.
• Assemble cross by taping pieces together at center from the back; adhere center piece at the junction.
• With the Faith Glimmer Sentiments set, foil sentiment in Gold on Whip Cream cardstock. Cut with coordinating die.
• Using largest rectangle and dotted border dies in the Nestabilities Essential Rectangles set, cut panel from Whip Cream cardstock.
