Theme Day Thursday - Religious Cards

Welcome To

Today's Theme

at My Cricut Craft Room

is 

Religious Cards

I struggled a bit after I signed up for this week's

Theme Day Thursday.

I had planned on using some of the

religious script stickers

in my stash,

but I didn't think about 

which Cricut Cartridge I would use.

Oy Vey!!!

So I scoured my collection, which only

took a brief moment...LOL,

and the light bulb

began to shine above my head!

Over The Hill Cricut Cartridge

<insert bright light>     

This cartridge has some fun cuts.

I was particularly drawn

to the Gate Fold card, that 

literally has a Gate Layer.

I cut the base layer (card) using a cloud/sky design card stock.

For the top layer (gate), I used a shimmery silver card stock.

Both were cut at Fit To Page (7 inches)

There were some extra
swirls near the lower valleys of the top edge
of the card.  
I trimmed them to make this look a little less, spooky.
 
To decorate the inside of the card,

I used a vellum Scripture sticker by Creative Imaginations,

a fun Cherub resin I got from a very sweet

friend, Heather Flaherty of I Heart {ippity},

and a fancy Bling Swirl from 

Want2Scrap.

 

When I cut the Belly Band that 

accompanies the card,

I also did Fit To Page (7 inches).

When  scoring it to fit around the card,

the two ends didn't match up on the back.

I guess that is  the reason 

there was a little red 3" marked in the booklet.

(that'll teach me)

I looked at the bright side

and figured this gave me an opportunity

to play with some of my ribbons and fibers

that get neglected sometimes.

I found a fabulous feathery white fiber

in my stash to bring the two ends together.

I used my hole punch

to create small holes to feed the fiber through.

I chose to tie the ends in the front,

 rather than the back like instructed

(Rebel, I know...ha ha ha)
