A Clever DIY Card That ‘Loads’ Its Message As You Pull It Out Of Its Cover





Forget about the usual run-of-the-mill greeting cards this festive season.



Why not make your own awesome card that ‘loads’ its message like a digital one?



An Instructables member, only identified as ‘Calvin’, has recently been causing waves online with his brilliant idea of a simple DIY ‘Loading Message’ card.



He wrote: “This is an awesome hand-made ‘Loading Message’ card and it is super easy to make! Watch as you pull the card out from the envelope the bars will actually ‘load’! This card isn’t just great for techies, it’s great for everyone!”



Using a printer, a pair of scissors, sticky tape and utility knife, you can create the fun greeting card that looks like an old-school loading window, complete with its complementary font.



Engage in some weekend craft by creating your own ‘Loading Message’ card, with full instructions provided here.
