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,
