Criss-Cross Card Tutorial



As you can see, the front folds are cut at an angle and open to reveal the cute image and sentiments.

So lets get started...
  • start with a 12x12 double side card stock
  • cut in half, giving you 2 pieces of 6x12 card bases


  •  score at 4" and 8" horizontally


  • now the card magic... measure down 4" and lightly pencil mark along the outside edge
  • flip and do the other side, measuring down 4"
  • using your paper trimmer, place your paper diagonal on the trimmer lining up the 4" score line at the top with the now 4" pencil mark on the side and cut
  • that's all there is to it, a very easy card to make


  •  For this card, I did it a little different than the first one
  • I place adhesive along on side and bottom of card and folded making it a criss-cross envelop
  • using a border punch, paper flowers and the scrap triangles, added a little embellishment to the front


  •  the mat sizes are... 3.75"x 5" (white), 3.5"x 4.5" (pink), circle with digi stamp is 3.5" big



Hope you have a blessed day and thanks for stopping by,

Building Block Graduation Card

Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
