Criss Cross Bliss

I came across an awesome tutorial for this Criss Cross card.

You can find the link HERE.

I do have to warn you, I don't think the directions are very accurate.

After a few revisions, I came up with this lovely card to share today.

This card is one of those things that after I am done, I could kick myself for not writing down the dies I used as I was going along.

I will try my best to let you know all of the dies I used.  On the card base I used: 

ZIG ZAG RIC RAC, SWEDISH SPRING OVAL AND QUEEN ANNE'S LACE.

For the band around the card I used FRANCESCA BORDER, TIFFANY BORDER AND BORDER CARNIVALE.

The sentiment focal point attached to the band, I used the following dies:

SCALLOPED OVAL, MINI FLOURISH ONE, BUTTONS 1, BLACK EYED SUSANS EMBOSSING PLATE, MEDIUM ROSE AND MINIATURE ROSE.

Here is the card with the band removed, you can see the Criss Cross Base in back/

All the paper is the brand new line from Authentique Paper called: 

CAREFREE

I love the way this turned out and I think it would make a perfect Mother's Day card.

I hope you have enjoyed my project today.
