Making the Pop Up Card

Pop Up Christmas cards are relatively easy to make. All you need is a sheet of card stock, a paper cutter, a glue stick, and some Christmas-themed scrapbook paper. Start by cutting a sheet of card stock into thirds lengthwise. Next, use the paper cutter to cut each strip into three even-sized rectangles.

Now it’s time to start decorating! Using the glue stick, attach a piece of scrapbook paper to the bottom third of one rectangle. Then fold the top third of the rectangle down so that it covers the scrapbook paper. Repeat this process with the remaining two rectangles.

Once all three rectangles are decorated, it’s time to assemble the pop up card. Simply fold each rectangle in half so that the fold is at the top. Then take the two outside rectangles and slide them inside the middle rectangle. The pop up card is now complete!

To add a special touch, consider attaching a small music box or other holiday decoration to the front of your card.

Adding the Music

Now that you have your card assembled, it’s time to add the music. In order to do this, you will need a small battery-operated music box. You can purchase these at most craft stores or online.

To add the music box, first create a small hole in the center of the card front. Next, take the music box and thread the neck through the hole from the front of the card. Once the neck is through, twist the base of the music box so that it is tight against the back of the card.

Now, flip over your card and insert batteries into the music box. Be sure to test your music box before sealing up your card! Finally, flip your card back over and seal up the envelope. Your recipient will now be able to open their Christmas card and enjoy a festive tune!

Finishing Touches

The last step is to add your finishing touches! You can do this by glueing on festive decorations like sequins, pom poms, or glitter. You can also add a personal touch by writing a message on the inside of the card. Once you’re finished, your card is ready to be popped up and enjoyed!
