Materials
• 1 sheet of +/- 80lb cardstock
• 1 sheet of (colored) paper for the card/cover
• Glue or double-sided tape
• Self healing cutting mat (optional)
Tools needed:
• A laser or inkjet printer
• Scissors or a knife
• Ruler for cutting and scoring
• Paperclip or empty pen
I recommend using 80lb (216 gms) cardstock. It’s strong enough for the pop-up mechanism but also easy to cut and fold. It’s no problem when you can’t find paper with this exact weight, instead, try to find something close to it.
Step 1:
Print out page 2 of this template, score the dotted lines and cut out all the pieces: the envelope, the pull tab and the double layer for the envelope’s seal flap.
Step 2:
Fold over and glue or tape the double layer for the pull tab (B)
Step 3:
Fold in the two tiny “C” tabs and slide the piece trough the right slot I.
Step 4:
Fold out the “C” tabs on the backside and pull the tab trough the left slot I.
Step 5:
Fold over the main flap and position it (folded in) in the slot on the right side I. Push it all the way into the outer ecorners. Tip: use my video as a reference for positioning)
Step 6:
add the double layer for the seal flap.
Step 7:
Glue or tape tab (A) on glue point A.
Step 8:
Gently open and close the card and help the mechanism so it finds it’s way.
