Guide to Decorative Stamping by Co-Motion. A clip from this video shows how to make pop-up cards.The following directions were included:
  1. Make sure you use thick card stock so the card will be able to stand without support.
  2. Mark the middle point of the card and fold it along this line.
  3. Unfold the card and stamp, making sure exactly half the stamp is above the folded line and half is below it.
  4. Stamp again below the first stamp, so this entire stamp is below the line.
  5. Lay the card on a piece of cardboard and cut out the upper part of the design that is divided by the fold using an X-Acto knife. Now when you fold the card, the top part of the design will pop up.
