A thin flexible material ( 30 ) is die-cut into a shape. Inset cuts are made in the sheet material to form large tabs ( 32 and 32 ') and small tabs ( 34 and 34 '). Another set of inset cuts and a vertical cut are made to form split tabs ( 40 a and 40 b and 40' a and 40' b). The large tabs are bent forward and the small tabs are bent backward so that a photo or flexible sheet material ( 46 ) may be placed under tabs in a flexed position on both sides of the device in either a horizontal or vertical orientation. The curved position of the displayed material creates a unique effect without damaging the displayed material with tacks or tape. When assembled the display device and displayed materials form a stand-alone three-dimensional structure. When placed on a horizontal surface, the displayed material can be displayed on both sides of the device. With displayed material on only one side of the device, it can be attached to a vertical surface. When not assembled, the structure, consisting of the display device and the displayed material, can store flat or fit in an envelope.
