I love the ‘tent’ style cards… especially if you don’t have much to say! Okay, just KIDDING!
The ‘base’ of the card is 4 1/4 x 7 1/2 folded and a 3×4 inch piece of designer series paper covers the front of it. I used my favorite ‘finial press’ embossing folder as usual and that combined with the wide satin ribbon makes this very elegant.
You can’t see the fine lines of glitter along the vertical stripes of the tree, but take my word for it, looks FABULOUS!
