Today’s project is an interactive Christmas card. I’m calling it a swinging tent card. Watch this 7 second video to view the fun swinging motion of the card.
Isn’t that fun?! I recently obtained he Cherish the Season Bundle from Stampin’ Up! and knew the bells would work great for my interactive Christmas card.
This card would be fun to send and awesome to receive. There is a small mechanism made with card stock that enables the swinging motion. Watch the video below for a step-by-step tutorial.
