Christmas is all about festive cheer and spending time with friends and family. Sending Christmas cards is a massive part of sending some love this year. These reindeer pop up card instructions will help kids young and old send Christmas greetings to friends near and far.
Reindeers are everywhere come November and my kids just love making them; the more the better. I have some easy reindeer crafts such as my candy cane reindeer and some more difficult crafts such as my clay pot reindeer.
My children love to be actively involved in picking Christmas cards for friends and family. Card shops are so busy at this time of the year so I prefer to craft some cards with my kids.
We have made various pop up cards for Christmas so far. I do plan on doing a poll to see which one you all prefer.
My latest creation was great fun to put together with the kids. We used my free reindeer paper template to help us create the pop up reindeer card.
You can follow my step by step reindeer pop up card instructions with images below to help you make something similar.
