Merry Christmas Tent Card

I can't believe Christmas is almost here!  It doesn't help that we have NO snow here..at least in Southern Maine.  The forecast is for warmer weather!  Ah well, it will still be fun to get together with the family and celebrate the holiday!  I am really looking forward to seeing everyone!

I saw this card on Pinterest- where else ?   I love this easy basic Tent Card.  I am a little nervous about how my friends and family will like it since I gave this card to a couple of friends and was with them when they opened it.  It took them a minute to realize you don't open the card you stand it up.

The sentiment is on the back of the card-

 

It folds perfectly flat for mailing-

 

 

 

 

I made not quite 30 cards to mail.  I got a little bored with making the same card so I used different paper- even changed out the piece that hangs.  I made an Angel and also used my new Stampin Up Wonderous Wreath stamp and die set!  The snowflake above is also from Stampin Up.

 

 

 

Here is a great tutorial from Beate from Splitcoast Stampers.  I changed the dimensions on mine to make more room for my snowflake to hang but the instructions are the same-

I am going to be busy wrapping gifts and cooking for the next few days as I am sure you are too!   I wanted to make sure I wished everyone a very Merry Christmas!
