Tent Cards and a Challenge

I followed the SCS tutorial this week and made two tent cards. The first one I am entering into the 7 Kids College Fund Challenge which is "Strip it Down", meaning no more than 2 layers of DP. I used my Max and Whiskers papers from Basic Grey and this adorable High Hopes image called Groundhog Gordon which can be found here.










My second one is also a High Hopes image although I don't see that 7 Kids has it right now, but it also has only 2 layers of DP and I love that image, so I'm at least sharing it as an SCS entry. Here is another view so that you can glimpse the tent form. I used a Just-Rite 3-1/4" border on the second one. I loved doing these tent cards and love the fact that the cards can be displayed since they stand up on their own. I'm thinking of making the second one for a parting gift to my Sunday School kids to give them on Promotion Sunday. I am soooo wanting to use images I've never had a chance to use yet, and these are two of them so hey, I've at least started. I hope you've had a wonderful week. Thanks for stopping by.
