Tent Card

I am sorry I did not write down the specific products used in this card. It is a 5 1/2 X 5 1/2" square card. There is an accordion folded piece at the bottom 3 X 5 1/2". The center bunny swings from a silver string suspended from between the layers. Since the top is attached, you can put your message on the back of the card. You can see from the side view the accordion fold that the card sits on.
