Stamp it, cut it, bake it, make it,
paint it, stick it, sew and wear it. Snap it, sketch it, pin it, write it,
play it, ply it, stop: re-write it. Try it, test it, learn it, link it, plan it, think it, pen and ink it.
Share it, give it, show it, grow it,
keep it, wrap it, pack and send it.
I found an origami-style shape for a card on my travels recently. I went home and I tinkered about a bit with angles and folds and eventually got the desired result. Take a look at these simple yet effective stand-up cards.
I really like those, they are so much nicer than the usual ones, also I like that the picture on the front is horizontal and the text is flat, not everyone will read the card straightaway, if you don’t want to! And yet everyone can see it and enjoy it!
they look really good, how hard are they to make?
