CRISS CROSS CARD

Good evening!!! hope everyone is well. So sorry I have not been around in a few days but have been busy in the craft room. I have a lot of cards to do at the moment as June is a very heavy Birthday month and in typical Clare style have left them to the last minute lol!. I have even made cards without getting a chance to photograph but I have a few to put up on my blog over the next few days. 

In fairness this is a card Dad sprang on me to make for my Sister's Birthday. I wanted to try something different .




I thought I would try a criss cross card and i'm pretty happy with how it's turned out.
