These criss-cross cards are a ball to make. There are 101 other things I should be doing this afternoon but I just couldn't resist making one more today.
For this card I've used stamps by CTMH. I added a little embossing and punching with my new Martha Stewart border/embossing punch on the green panel across the front. The rest is fairly straight forward with machine stitching, ric-rac and little scraps of ribbon I'd saved. YES! It is true. I actually saved these two 3-inch pieces of ribbon in my ribbon box just in case I'd ever need them. Today I did!
You've got to try these fun criss cross cards. The possibilities are endless.
Guess I had better start supper for my husband now. I know he's going to wonder what I've been up to today if he doesn't smell something cooking when he comes in the door.
Until later.......
Thanks for the link with instructions. I also love the stitched stamp set, too cute!
ReplyDeleteCute country style with the metal button, lacey punch, stitching and ric rac. You Rock Jennifer!!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your criss-cross cards! I have something similar 'in mind' for the sketch-challenge on the Shack. Great minds think alike! (wink!)
ReplyDeleteHow cute are these cards?! I need to make some. This one is really cute - it's got that down-home feeling. Nice job.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the link to the tutorial. I love your cards.
ReplyDeleteI think I have that Martha Stewart punch/embosser, so you gave me ANOTHER great idea. Really darling card, especially since I may have that patterned paper, too. Don't have that set, but my cousin Kim is a demo. Can you hear the ideas churning?
ReplyDeleteSo, so pretty! Love your use of the MS punch, and your stitching is awesome!
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card. Ok, why did you have to show that punch that also embosses...huge enabling. It all comes together in such a happy way.
ReplyDeleteyour criss cross cards are so pretty! I love how romantic they are!
ReplyDeleteJust the CUTEST!
