I've always had an infatuation with pop-up books but I especially love those that are simple, quirky, and unexpected. Plus, when you add in great typography, it's a graphic designer's daydream. Check out the amazing video of this book by Marion Batille and Roaring Book Press due out in October. The video itself it a piece of work and the music...love it. Have a great weekend everyone!

Pop-up cards are also a fun project to do with kids. I held a workshop locally for my kids and a few of their friends. Find ideas and simple templates here:
