I was inspired to create this card by the many I found online when searching for fun fold cards.  I found this great YouTube video HERE but I modified measurements to better fit into a A2 envelope. I also added DSP to one side and the bottom of the teepee. The best way to figure this out is to do a template.  The bottom small pieces must be added before the squares are connected.

* Magnets were purchased HERE.
** Add your embleshments after you finish the card.  Keep in mind that you should make this adjustment AND how the card fits in the envelope.
