Directions: 1. Prepare your Easter Cross Box using one of the methods suggested on the handout “Using Your Exclusive PCL
Templates”. Please note that the video demonstrates the assembly of the Easter Cross Box that was cut out on an electronic die cutter using the template sized for 12” x 12” cardstock. If you are cutting out your template from 8 ½” x 11” cardstock you will notice that it is slightly different -‐ the horizontal box sides come as separate pieces. I have put together a PDF handout that details assembly instructions that you can refer to for clarification on how to assemble the cross box.
2. Place Red Liner Tape on the box pieces as directed in the handout “Assembly Instructions for Easter Cross Box Top and Bottom”, and appropriate to the template you are using (8 ½’ x 11” or 12” x 12”)
3. Center and stick your patterned paper cross piece to the top of the cross box. 4. Assemble the box top as per the instructions and video. 5. Repeat with the box base. If desired line the inside of the box base with a cross-‐shaped piece of patterned paper
sized to fit the inside box bottom. 6. Place the box lid on the box base. It is important to do this step slowly and gently as it will be a tight fit and may
even look like it doesn’t fit. Gently wiggle the pieces in. Trust me – it will fit! 7. Die cut a circle out of a scrap of Whisper White cardstock using the 4th from the smallest Circles Framelits dies and
your Big Shot (diameter is ~ 2”). Stamp your sentiment in the center of your die cut circle using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and a stamp-‐a-‐ma-‐jig if necessary.
8. Cut a fishtail from the ends of the 1 ¼” x 4 ¼” piece of Coastal Cabana cardstock using scissors. 9. Center and stick the banner to the center of the Easter Cross Box. 10. Center and stick the sentiment circle over top of the banner using dimensional foam. 11. Add a large rhinestone onto the banner piece to the left and right of the sentiment circle.
