DIY Handmade Cell Phone Message Pull Out Card Tutorial
CELL PHONE PULL "WOW" CARD 
I'm thrilled to share with you a craft project that's bound to leave a lasting impression – this interactive Cell Phone Message Pull Out card. Whether you're a tech aficionado or not, this interactive card is sure to captivate your friends and loved ones. 
This isn’t just any ordinary card with a simple pull, a string of personalized text messages emerges, mimicking the experience of checking your phone for notifications. It’s so lifelike, you might just forget it’s made of paper!
Timing and Occasions: I chose to set the "phone time" to 11:11 for its significance as a moment of synchronicity and positivity. However, feel free to customize it to match special dates like birthdays, anniversaries, or any occasion close to your heart. This card is versatile and perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, or any celebration that deserves a touch of handmade magic.
Envelope: While this card fits perfectly in a standard envelope, if you’re sending it through the mail, I recommend adding extra protection with a bubble wrap and opting for hand-canceling to ensure it arrives in pristine condition.
Instructions: Ready to dive into the crafting process? I’ve got you covered with step-by-step instructions accompanied by clear photos to guide you through each stage. Additionally, I've prepared graphics for the messages, perfectly sized for printing on cardstock. For those familiar with Canva, I’ve even included a link to a customizable template, allowing you to effortlessly drag and drop your own photos into the template. Simply switch out my images for yours, print on white or balmy blue cardstock, and let your creativity shine!
Video Tutorial: Prefer visual guidance? Look no further! Below, you'll find a video reel demonstrating each step of the crafting process, making it even easier to bring this unique card to life.
Inspiration: My inspiration for this project came from the talented Quintal Malara - Quinsarte from India.

Whether you’re a seasoned crafter or a novice, I hope this tutorial sparks joy and inspires you to spread happiness one handmade creation at a time.

Simply pull of the "swipe" a string of personalized text messages.

I chose to set the "phone time" to 11:11 for its significance as a moment of synchronicity and positivity. But you could change that to a birthday or anniversary.

Write your personalized messages that unfold as you pull

You can even add mini photos to the "text" message panel.

I've created these "messages" graphics for you on the pdfs above.

Kind of cool the phone card actually stands on it's own as when the messages are folded up they act as a kickstand.
