You are going to love this Criss Cross Card Layout!

Welcome to Make It With Mary Monday #6. I’m excited to share with your another quick and easy card layout. I like to call this one the Criss Cross Card Layout, and I know you are going to love it! I feature the Brushed with Beauty Designer Series Paper for the card I make in this video and will show you some additional cards made with the same Criss Cross Card Layout with other papers and stamp sets. Feel free to use any supplies you have.

To craft along with me for Make It With Mary Monday #6, you can use any supplies you have at home. Simply, cut your card stock and paper using the dimensions shown in the photo below.

A couple more card made with the Criss Cross Card Layout:

I used the Love Notes 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper for the card below. That includes the sentiment – no stamping as the sentiment is printed on the Love Notes DSP as are many other sentiments.

The cards below use Kintsugi Inspirations Designer Series Paper with a sentiment from Greenery Lane Stamp Set. Notice also the unique placement of the Gold Flowers embellishments on each of the cards.
