Flower interactive birthday card

Hi
Today i'll be sharing an interactive card i created for my bestie's bday..

The colored tabs can be pulled open this way..

it took too much time for me to figure out all the calculations & finally ended up with way lot of imperfections.. I was very much caught up with it that i forgot to take pics in between..
I'll try to explain the process here as best as possible with digital sketches..

Basically i constructed a hexagon with side 2" out of watercolor paper & using it as template cut 2 more out of cardstock..

The hexagon panels are arranged one on top of the other.. The pockets for the tabs are made by sticking hinges on the central panel..

The tabs are 2"×1.2", the semicircles are 2" wide & stuck separately.

I hope this gives some idea about the construction..!
I applied glue on top of the hinges & stuck the panels..

The image is hand drawn & watercolored with distress inks.. Applied wink of stella clear glitter and glossy accents over the topping & the little heart..
I refered the cliparts from picsart app.. They are so cute & adorable..
For the sentiment i thought of using Avery Elle stamps but the size was too big for my card.. So once again i wrote that down with Pilot black fineliner pen..

The tabs are colored with distress inks & the sentiments are from various stamp sets which i found to match the theme.. Stamped with memento tuxedo black ink..

Hope you liked it.. Do lemme kno ur comments about my new experiment :D
C u soon.
Create. Have fun.
