Lattice Die cross Card

OMG I saw this on Dawn Olefscheske's blog and some others so this is not my idea but a friend of mine wanted me to stamp her a card for a baptism so this is what I came up with! I just love it when a Die can be used for some other way than it was made to be. The stamp set is an old discontinued set for 1999 so forget about that but you could use any congrats or use it as an Easter card also.
I used Marina Mist, Early Espresso,and Bashful Blue card stock.
The Ink is Early Espresso.
The accessories are Big Shot 113439 $99.95, Bigz Lattice Die 115958 $21.95, 1-3/4" Circle Extra Large Punch 119850 $16.95, Marina Mist 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon 119965 $6.95, Jewels Pearls 119247 $4.95

 Okay here is the scoop on how to do this. You run your CS through the big shot and you come up with the full lattice. Hold it up so you can see the cross in it. You then snip through all but what makes your cross for the first rough cut. Then go back and cut off each end to round it off to make it finished. Isn't it just brilliant!?! I just love it and you can make it any color and I have even seen it with the Fun Flower die in pink behind the cross. If you don't understand my instructions please email me at bjupn218@gvtel.com and I will  send you pictures of it by stages.  The 3 pearls stand for the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit! Happy Easter to all of you and isn't God's grace such a blessing!    Happy Stamping and email me to order or join my team. Hugs, Bev
