Christmas Tree Place Cards

The women in my husband's family have a wonderful tradition at Christmas time... a girl's only Tea Party!  It is an event they have been doing for many years.  This year all of us "young women" (aka the daughters and daughters-in-law) were in charge of the Tea Party.  We all took the responsibility for different aspects of the party, and one of my tasks was to make the place cards.  I wanted to make something fun that everyone could take home with them. I got the idea for these Christmas Tree Place Cards from http://accucut.typepad.com/craft/2010/10/oh-my-you-need-this-die.html.

 I was not able to find any SVG files for the pyramid so I found an image of a pyramid template online and used the trace tool in SCAL to create my own SVG.  Here is the image cut out by the Cricut. 

I scored my fold lines. 

And then I folded it and glued it together.

Then I cut stars from the basic shapes in SCAL and sprayed them with some water mixed with Perfect Pearls.  I glued stars to toothpicks and stuck them into the top of the trees.  The name tags I simply printed out on my regular printer and then cut out with the Cricut.  I stamped the name cards with snowflake stamps in Versamark Ink with Perfect Pearls on top to add some shimmer.
