Tent card with Fumi & AJ with Dragonfly

Hello!
 
Yesterday and the day before I shared these two fun and easy to make cards on my blog.  This particular card is called a "tent card" and if you want to learn how to make it click on this LINK and the fabulous Beate Johns on Split Coast Stampers will show you.  Love going to SCS to look up new ideas and there are a ton of awesome multiple fold cards there with tutorials. (Pretty awesome idea for our current challenge if you're stuck on what to make).
 
This first tent card features AJ with Dragonfly from the Peek-a-Boo series.  This card measures 4 x 3.5.  I used Spellbinders to cut a circular window and then created this outdoor scene using some fun Doodlebug papers and punches.
 

 And here is a side view...
 
I know there isn't really any space to write anything... but wait!  There is!  The back side of the card...
  
 
 I did the same thing with another tent card featuring Fumi but for this card I made it bigger and created a rectangular window.  Used punches to decorate the inside and outside... 
 
 
Here is a side view...
 
And now the backside which already has a sentiment courtesy of AmyR...
 
The cool thing about these cards is that they fold flat to stick and mail in an envelope and when they are opened they stand up like a "tent".  :D
