Nestle cards into the boughs of a bare branch for a potpourri of glad tidings. Make your own tabletop greeting tree using foraged branches and a little spray paint.

Jazz up an empty wall with a tree-shaped card display. Tape up a few of your favorite cards in rows to form a triangle “tree”. A basket placed underneath becomes a trunk.

Make a Five-Minute Mantle. Creating a winter wonderland card display is a snap when you add fairy lights and bottle brush trees to a “snow-covered” mantle or shelf. Our new Vista View Cards make quite a merry scene!

Prime and paint the board and allow to dry overnight.
Use Mod Podge to affix your Vista View card to board. Add two additional protective coats to top of card and board. Allow to dry completely.

Measure and mark for evenly spaced placement of four ribbons on back of board.

Cut four equal lengths of ribbon. Use sharp scissors and cut ribbon on the diagonal to help prevent fraying. Apply a small amount of clear nail polish or craft glue on ends for more anti-fray protection if desired.

Attach ribbons to back of board with upholstery tacks.
