Why don't you have a bash at making this pop up card? You'll need a black piece of card, an A4 sheet of white paper, a small piece of aluminium foil cut into a semi-circle, some stick-on stars and a glue stick.

See if you can beat Fearne's studio time of 51 seconds!
Start off by folding the black piece of card in half.
Open the card out.

Stick the semi-circle of foil in the middle of the card, across the fold.
Now stick a few of the stars around the semi-circle.
Now take your A4 sheet of paper and fold it up into a concertina shape.
Fold the concertina in half and stick it together in the middle.

Then stick it to the inside of the card, with one side stuck to the front and one side stuck to the back.
That completes your pop up card. Not bad, eh?
If you take more than a minute you could take longer and try some other ideas based on the same principle - like this hot air balloon!
