3D Halloween Cards

When I was a kid, I used to love pop-up books. Now that I'm grown, I love pop-up cards. And as it happens, the company "Up With Paper", makes the most incredibly creative 3D Pop-Up Art Cards available. My favorite ones are of course the Halloween editions. These cards can be mailed and then serve as stand up art for the recipient. If you look closely you can see how these are actually layers that pop up when the card is opened. Photos do not do justice to the cool 3D effects of these crafty cards. And a few new ones are available each year at select card stores and gift shoppes.

The close up ones are mine. I just love these things. I keep a Hula/Tiki one on my desk year round.

p.s. I like the one with Love Potion No. 9...I need to do something related to that song and idea for Gio one of these days.

Guess what?
I bought you the Love Potion #9 card last year, but totally forgot to send it to you!!! What the heck?! I set it aside and plan on sending it out to you this October! I can't even remember where I purchased it! I don't think it was in Salem, but it could've been!
