Easy Recycled Cardboard Pop Up Cards

These days, we’re finding ways to celebrate our loved ones from afar, so it’s a great time to make and send a handmade card! And it’s always a good time to use recycled materials. With that in mind, I made some easy pop-up cards for The Week Junior magazine using recycled cardboard! I love the typography and colors of coated cardboard from the recycle bin, and it makes a sturdy pop-up!

By the way, have you seen The Week Junior? It is a fantastic news and activity magazine for children aged 8-14. I am thrilled to be contributing to their How-To column!

You can, of course, use any kind of paper or photo to customize your card, like a picture of your pup!

Here is a how-to shot from a similar project I did in our book, Paper Goods Projects!
I hope you’ll give this project a try! If you do, please tag me at @supermakeit so I can see!
