DIY Pop-up flower garden cards

These pop-up flower garden cards or so super easy to make! You just need some thin cardboard (or thick paper), coloured paper, glue and scissors. The photos above pretty much say it all. One thing to notice — don’t make the flowers too long, or they will stick out of the card once folded! Sara (6) made the coloured flowers, and Pim (4), who’s still quite clumsy at using his scissors, created the abstract tulip garden for his sick grandpa. Cute!

Courtney got me those stamps for my birthday a few years ago. I think they’re from here: http://www.impressrubberstamps.com/index.html

Awesome. I was looking for a card my 6 year old students can give give to their mums in graduation day. I made a valentines card using the same technique but hadn’t considered flowers. Thank you – Tim
