Make a bobble head card and send laughs through the mail!
Ready for a chuckle? I’ve made some amusing cards before, but today I’ll show you how to make something extra fun: a bobble head card! These greeting cards are cute — especially the custom versions using a photo of someone’s face! We’ll use nothing but photo paper, cardstock, glue, and a special element to make your bobble wobble. Without resizing, they fit in an A7 sized envelope you can make yourself! But how do we get the photo cut perfectly for the card? Let’s find out!
