AND THEY FOLD FLAT FOR MAILING!
The base card is pretty simple to cut and score. You can use
any shape to cut out the front opening. Then you just
decorate as you like and adhere the two end pieces
together when done decorating.
I suggest you watch the second video by Dawn Griffith
link above to see how it goes together.
