Open the card and a spread of beautiful cherry blossoms appears! Here are some ideas for a pop-up message card.

When it comes to graduation ceremonies, many people probably think of cherry blossom motifs.

This time, let’s make a pop-up message card featuring beautiful cherry blossoms.

Create stamps using packing material and a toilet paper roll, then dab paint onto construction paper to stamp the design.

Cut it into the shape of cherry blossoms, and it’s done.

For the cover, cut it into a round shape and decorate it with origami petals to give it a gorgeous finish!

Let’s create with wishes for the children’s happy future! Here are ideas for a clover-themed message card.

The clover motif is beloved as a symbol that brings good luck and makes wishes come true.

To mark the milestone of graduation from kindergarten, let’s send the children a clover message card! Fold green construction paper into a triangle three times and cut with scissors to make a clover.

Drawing a portrait or a message inside the clover makes it extra cute! It’s the kind of card they’ll want to open again and again.

♬ Really Like You – Gyubin

Letters that look like illustrations! Here are some ideas for cards drawn using only a dot pen.

A dot pen has a springy tip that lets you create dots in various sizes.

Let’s make cards that children will love.

If you arrange the characters for “graduation from kindergarten” (sotsuen) to look like they’re holding hands, it creates a cute illustration.

Decorating around the letters with motifs like hearts and stars will finish it off as a festive message card.

Try drawing while experimenting with different touches.

Peel-off Message Card

Peel-off Message Card

This card has a tab you grab and peel back, revealing a message underneath.

It’s the same type of card you often see in raffles, but the idea here is to make it as a message card.

The satisfying peel is addictive, and making it is much easier than you might think.

If you have a perforation cutter, just use origami paper, memo pads, or colored cardstock; add perforated lines where you want it to open; and then adhere a cover over the message with double-sided tape or a tape runner.

Masking tape card

Here’s a handmade washi tape card idea that will leave a lasting impression on children.

The more patterns and designs of washi tape you use, the nicer the card will turn out.

These days, you can find a variety of washi tapes even at 100-yen shops, so try making use of them.

Stick packing tape onto printer paper, then apply several kinds of washi tape on top.

Cut the taped section to fit the card you’re making.

Create the card by arranging the washi tape like a collage.

How about adding a message or an illustration for the kids to the finished card?

Let’s celebrate with pandas, known for their gentle and cute image! Here are ideas for a pop-up card featuring a panda.

Pandas, who also appear in the “Panda, Rabbit, Koala” fingerplay, are surely familiar animals to children.

Let’s make a pop-up card with a panda, characterized by its round face and big, bright eyes.

When you open this card, a panda peeks out from a bouquet, and when you close it, the panda hides back inside the flowers.

Kids will definitely be amazed by this clever mechanism! It would also be lovely to arrange it as a heart-shaped bouquet.

[Easy Craft] A Gift for Preschool Graduates! A Photo Frame Made from Cardboard [Age 3] (ASMR-style Video)
Making gifts for kindergarten graduatesNEW!

At graduation ceremonies, many people will likely take lots of memorable photos.

How about making a photo frame that’s as simple as cutting and gluing cardboard? Just cut cardboard to the size of the frame, layer another piece with the inside cut out so the photo shows, and glue them together—done! Painting the cardboard or adding decorative parts like beads and stickers will make it even cuter.

Rather than giving just the frame, it will be appreciated even more if you include a memorable photo in it when you present it.
