Criss-Cross Card

Sweet Stamps Challenge:

Criss-Cross Card

Here's a link to watch a video on how to create this card.

Here's the card I created:
What a fun card to make, this was my first time creating this type of card layout.


For this card I used "Watercan Florals", which is the main image on the front and on the inside portion I used the corner stamp from the set "Mum Bouquet and Corner Duo".  Such pretty stamps for a fall card!  I decided to use the stamp "Happy Birthday Script" for the inside of the card, as I have a ton of fall birthdays coming up!


 A close-up of the watering can, that I used Creative Inspirations Paint "Silver Frost" to add shimmer to the can.

And lastly a close-up of the flowers.  I added glossy accents on the berries to give them a little shine.

Make sure to join us on the Sweet Stamps blog, we'd love to see what you create.  You have a chance at winning $20 to purchase some "sweet" things of your own!!  There's plenty of wonderful things to choose from!

Have a wonderful day!
