How to Make a Simple Pop Up Card

Was playing about with some watercolours, paper and a ready-made card.

Decided to do it in a graphics program. Here are the instructions:

Cut out the pop up piece.

Fold in half

Fold along the other blue lines

Cut along the black lines up to the fold

Apply glue to the outside edges on the WRONG SIDE of the pop up piece

Attach pop up piece to the inside of the ready-made card, placing the middle folds of the piece and the card together. Arrange the middle struts to look like this.

Well done. See the download post.

Self Avenue

A little over three weeks ago I started a hub called 'Self Avenue' a self development/improvement site. Writing about personal development is a good way to explore your own thoughts/ideas/attitudes/behaviour - and at the same time you might help others who are in similar situations. I am not in the industry, do not know the jargon but thought I had something to share. I write from layman perpective - a-la experience, saying what worked for me and what didn't. My Editor Justine Crowley has (among other things) published four books on the subject and provides an industry-credible voice. I did not imagine it would take off so. Counsellors, Doctors, Life Coaches have applied as writers as have Mums and Bloggers - so there'll be a good mix of stuff coming up. If you think you might like to write for Self Avenue , from whatever walk of life you're from - take a gander here . Yes, you get paid :)
