This criss cross card is an easy fun fold and the Floral in Bloom Suite is the perfect set of products for this fun canvas.

Measurements:
BASE: Strawberry Slush CS: (2) 4 1/4″ x 11″
scraps for dies
DSP: (2) 4″ x 5 1/4″
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″
scraps for dies

Score the Strawberry Slush CS at 5 1/2″ and cut from the middle score line top edge to the bottom corner on both pieces.
Cut a 1/4″ off of only one of the stright sides opposite the diagonal cut.

Adhere the two pieces of cardstock together with the piece that is 1/4″ shorter on the inside with the top and bottom and score lines all lined up!

Cut the 2 DSP layers in half diagonally and then paying attention to the direction of the pattern
cut the layers that will match up with the triangles on the outside of the card 1/4″ off both straight sides.

I stamped the inside sentiment in Strawberry Slush ink onto the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White layer make sure it is lower than the criss cross so it is hidden when the card is closed.
I adhered one of the 1/4″ DSP discards below the sentiment.

Adhere the diagional DSP pieces. to the outside of the diagonal criss cross panels of the card.

I die cut the Large Flower from the Pretty Florals dies and the Bloom word die from the Sweet Blooms die set in Strawberry Slush cardstock and die cut the word matte from the Sweet Blooms dies and the inside detail of the flower from the Pretty Florals dies in Basic White.
I adhered the white inside flower detail to the large flower in strawberry slush and adhered it to the outside diagonal card panel so it lined up where the criss cross intersects.
I adhered the white word matte below the flower.

I adhered the Strawberry Slush cardstock word die onto the Basic White matte.

I adhered the 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls to the outside of the card to finish it off!
