Very Special Stand-up Tree Card



I love this card.  It took a lot of time to get it figured out as the directions were in metrics and Russian.  that didn't work on my paper.  This card is 11 5/8" across and folds up into a 5 1/2" tall and 4 1/4" wide.
1- Cut the tree shape on both ends of the base
2- then slightly smaller tree sections of contrasting paper.  Each tree half being 1 1/2 " wide and 5 1/2 " tall.  this card has 4 green halves and two red halves. 
3"score the folds with the center piece being 4 1/4" wide
when you fold the card where the green  trees are glued on they should meet, each being 1 1/8 inches wide. Before you glue the Green trees on you need to insert a piece of ribbon to tie the two trees together.
3-the red trees are slightly larger and measure 1 7/8" at the bottom (1/2 trees)
4-the points of the green trees have green rhinestones on them to add some glitz. 
5-Center has a little ornament embellishment, stamped greeting and a strip of green paper that is adorned with three rhinestones at the bottom.
