Not quite sure what to call this style of card so I have referred to it as a crossover. My eldest granddaughter will be 20 next month and I wanted to do something a bit different for her - I spent a long time tatting about with this one, to get the slots in the right place, but I am quite pleased with the overall effect now. I used conqueror concept 250 gsm for the main card and I used my replacement cameo blade for the first time. I tried several test cuts and had to use setting 3, speed 3 thickness 33 and even then the cut I got was a little bit woolly and I had to take my craft knife to it in places. A bit disappointing really.
This is what I was attempting to cut when my cameo blade let me down. Fortunately I was able to finish it with my trusty old robo blade. The design is created by using the letter A from the font Victorian Designs and applying an external offset. The text font is Georgia. Hope it may be of some use.
I have put in just the outlines to make it easier for you to cut the "backing". It will save messing about with the cutlines!

Reason: further info
The card template and the pieces to cut for the fronts and inside are included but not the flower, sorry but that's a die I've had for ages and can't share. Instructions on the file. You could also use glue or double sided tape along the bottom edges to make it into a pocket for a gift card holder
