Some of you may remember the series of business card holders (butler, scientist, sheriff, beaver) I did some time ago. Here is a quick tutorial on how to make them:

Start by cutting out along the contours of the template:

Fold along the edge of the base, so that the front is at a 90° angle, then fold the flaps at the sides of the front backwards:

Fold the sides up and glue them to the flaps:

The extension of the base has three sections. Fold them inwards, like this:

Then glue the flap at the end back onto the base, so that it creates a little wedge. this wedge will keep the business cards a bit above the edge of the base, so that they are easier to grab. If you want, you can glue a little weight into the inside of the base.

The last step is folding the hands of the butler inwards, so that they can hold one ‘sample’ card at the front:
