Pop Up Cross card- using Impressions Abloom Bundle SNEAK PEEK!

 

Check out this gorgeous cross card!

This is a totally Susie card.

Look at the daisy flower & words.....as they are a sneak peek of 

an upcoming Online Bundle that I bought when

I attended the After hours Onstage Class earlier this month.

 

Impressions Abloom Bundle= $48.50

It will be available to purchase on 5/6/25!

You will want to add this bundle to your wish list.

Look how the cross pops up on my card.

WOW HUH!

 

I did fussy cut out around the words using Paper Snips Scissors.

These are all included in this bundle-

the words, oval, flower & leaves.

Here is the pattern that I made up so that the cross pattern would

fit all the way across the front of a normal folded card that is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2".

With my pattern, the cross will also lay flat & fit perfectly into an envelope.

And  I won't tell you how many different measurements I made until 

I came up with this perfect one! 

All other patterns that I found ended up with a 3 1/2 x 5 1/2" card base

& I didn't want mine to be that narrow.

So here is the pattern/measurements I made up-

Basic White card stock-

5 x 5 1/4"- score at 1 3/8", 1 7/8", 3 1/8" & 3 5/8"

Wow- see how my cross card lays perfectly flat for fitting into an envelope!

I hope you love my fun fold cross card as much as I do & 

you have fun making one too!
