The card of illustrator Christopher Soprano isn’t so much a card, but a sort of paper puppet/miniature POP display. It’s pretty cool.

At first, it looks like a regular card. The typography is whimsical but with a sense of sophistication. There are elements of hand-crafted goodness, and a bit of stampy action.

And then they stand up and become something else entirely.

Here’s a close-up of the mechanism, so to speak.

This isn’t the first pop-up card featured on the site. Older ones are here and here, to start.

What do we think, are pop-up cards a pleasant surprise in the day-to-day of card design, or an eye-rolling act of creative half-rebellion?

Also, what do you think about a server hosting company that made it possible to store electronic business cards?
