You can find this card in a Hexagon Pop Up Bundle, or purchase it by itself.
Here is a tutorial for you today!
Here are some of the working parts glued together and ready to go.
This is the base piece. I creased all the fold lines.
You will add glue to the center of each section and then fold the piece upon itself, matching the two glued parts together.
This is what it will look like from the side.
This is what it will look from the top. There are 3 slots with the largest in the center.
You can insert the pieces numbered 1, 2 and 3 in order to get an idea of what this card will look like but you will need to take out #2 an #3 while dealing with #1-it’s just easier.
Glue the tab of #1 and glue it so it stands straight when folding the base upright.
Fold the first base section, being careful to make sure when you fold it flat, that it will flatten fully.
Here it is flattened.
Insert #2 into the other side base section and glue it flat onto the inside center piece.
Here I am inserting #3 piece. When you fold the second side up make sure your #3 piece is glued up straight and then glue the main side flap together, forming an open square on each side
It looks like this when you set it up. Take note of the little tabs on the bottom of each side.
Add glue to the front and back of each base piece. Here, you will align the long piece, making sure to line up with the bottom of the box and going over each little side tab. The tab on the long piece should secure in the back by adding glue to the last tab. Assure your card will easily flatten. As you stand the card up and push down on the outside frame, it will lock those little side tabs sticking out into the outside frame.
Here you can see what the bottom looks like. Very neat and finished.
Side view. To re-flatten just push on the inside and that will pop out the secured tabs.
All finished! I just adore the little bluebird Lori added to the file!
I hope you enjoyed this card–the hexagon cards really impress people when they pull it out of the envelope!
