Pop-up Christmas Greeting Card

Step 7 Step Six : Placing the Pop-up

6. Place the Pop-Up between the two strips with the lever on the right pointing up, line it up and stimulate pushing the lever down and Pop-Up popping up. Cut the second cardboard strip at a length that will allow it to move freely. Find the right leverage ,it most likely between the center to the right end. Put a hole in the level (popsicle stick) and put a pin through the bottom layer of cardboard and through the lever . Test your Pop-Up. It may take a couple tries. Don't Stick Yourself. When everything is working correctly, Bend the pointed end pin with pliers. Be careful not to damage the card. Then snip the pin to about 1/8" Be Careful When snipping the pin may fly. Best to hold with pliers or stick in cork then snip.
