We love unique and fun Haloween cards, and this pop up card certainly is one.
There are quite a few fun elements for you to color and use on your card, but the main thing you need is the pop up mechanism – once you understand this one, you will be able to make a ton of your very own haunted mansion.

How to Pop Up Card using Our Halloween Pop Up Card Template
What you need:
- our printable craft template (you can grab it at the end of this tutorial).
- coloring supplies
- heavier print paper
- sheet of heavier paper for the card
- scissors
- glue
Follow these Step by Step Instructions
Print out our template. We recommend using heavier print paper but regular print paper will be OK too.
First cut out the pop up card base (the rectangle with the dashed lines).
Fold in half along the line at the middle of the rectangle. Crease well.
Now cut along the two dashed lines on the folded rectangle.
Unfold a little and push the middle part (between two cuts) forward. “Close” the rectangle again and press it down, so the new folds form.
Unfold a little bit again, find the smaller two dashed lines and cut into them. Again push the middle part forward and crease new folds.
Your base is finished.
Time to decorate. Color the base as you see fit, we colored one of ours with markers and the other with inks and have drawn details with a black marker.
Next pick out the elements you want to use from the second page of our template.
Color them in.
Cut them out.
Glue them on the card.
When you are happy with how your card is looking, take a sheet of construction paper in any color you like and fold it in half.
Glue your Halloween pop up card inside the folded construction paper.
All done!
Happy Halloween!

Thank you so much for this tutorial. In little time my son could build his Halloween assignment. There wasn’t much time for creativity, so the card became similar to yours. However, it was fun and he could do most of it by himself.
