Pop-Out Ghost Card
originally published 10-22-11
I wanted to make some cards to send to Grandmas & Grandpas and came up with a fun idea to do an accordion-folded-pop-out-ghost-card. (Say THAT 10 times fast. haha)
Here's how we did it (as shown above):
Cut out a wide ghost shape. Draw on eyes and smile.
Fold it accordion style. Then glue one side down on the inside of the card. Put glue on the other
