Abstract: A pivoting pop up article and method of making has a hinge fold positioned between a front cover and a rear cover. A displacement leaf includes a base, a leg and a tab. A base leaf couple secures the base of the displacement leaf to the front cover. The base is offset relative to the hinge fold for defining a base offset dimension between the hinge fold and the base. A first interior couple secures an interior leaf to the rear cover. A second interior couple secures the interior leaf to the rear cover. The first interior couple and the second interior couple define a channel between the rear cover and the interior leaf. The base offset dimension causes the displacement leaf to be pivoted within the channel during pivoting the front cover between a closed position and an open position for extending the tab above the rear cover.

Abstract: An improved moving step article construction and method of making is disclosed. The moving step article comprises an exterior cover having a hinge fold positioned between a front cover and a rear cover. The front cover has an obverse side and a reverse side. The rear cover has an obverse side and a reverse side. An interior leaf has an obverse side, a reverse side, an inner edge and an outer edge. The interior leaf defines a leaf width. A binder couples the inner edge of the interior leaf with the reverse side of the front cover for defining a leaf offset dimension between the hinge fold and the inner edge of the interior leaf. The leaf offset causes the interior leaf to be displaced relative to the rear cover during pivoting the front cover between a closed position and an open position.
