Hey Quietfire Fans! For today's project I'm getting into the Christmas Spirit and sharing with you my Rejoice Card. I combined a variety of A Way With Words Dies and Modern Gilding Powders which were all perfect for creating this card. You'll want to grab a cup of your favourite beverage and learn how to recreate my Rejoice Card at home.
To start, choose two pieces of Christmas patterned paper. Die cut a 4" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of one of the patterned papers. Die cut a 3 3/4" Fitted Indented Rectangle out of the other patterned paper. Distress the edges of both pieces. Ink the edges of both pieces using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
Die cut a 3 1/2" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of a piece of black cardstock. Distress the edges of the rectangle.
From the Flourished Christmas Tree die, you'll need both tree pieces. Die cut the outline Christmas tree out of a piece of green Christmas patterned paper. Die cut the outline and flourished Christmas tree out of a piece of dark green cardstock paper.
Apply Emboss It Dabber to a piece of white cardstock. Sprinkle Copper Scroll Modern Gilding Powders over the inked cardstock piece. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Die cut the Peace on Earth word out of the embossed paper.
Die cut the Rejoice word out of a piece of dark red cardstock.
Apply Emboss It Dabber to a piece of white cardstock. Sprinkle Kells Gold Modern Gilding Powders over the inked cardstock piece. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Die cut the star and baubles out of the embossed paper.
Adhere the 3 3/4" rectangle to the 4" rectangle. Adhere the 3 1/2" rectangle to the 3 3/4" rectangle.
Foam square the Peace on Earth die cut to the middle of the 3 1/2" rectangle. Adhere the flourished Christmas Tree to the plain Christmas Tree. Use adhesive and foam square to adhere the flourished Christmas Tree to the middle of the Peace on Earth die cut.
Adhere the Rejoice word to the bottom portion of the Christmas Tree.
Adhere the star and baubles to the tree as desired.
To finish the card, cut a cardbase out of white cardstock that measures 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", score at 4 1/4". Adhere the cardfront to the cardbase.
