Flapping wings or opening gate mechanism | using Lawn Fawn supplies

In this tutorial I'll show you the mechanism to make a winged object, such as a bee, a butterfly or a bird, flap its wings. Alternatively, the mechanism can also be used for double doors or gates that open from the centre outwards. I'll show you the principle on which the mechanism is based, how I apply it to a card and also how to troubleshoot a new problem. I will also give you recommendations for suitable materials.

I also mention that this mechanism is tricky for small objects like the butterfly I used on my card. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for improvements 🙂

For my card I used the following supplies:
STAMPS (*plus coordinating die)
🦋 fab flowers* | Lawn Fawn
🦋 flutter by* | Lawn Fawn
🦋 happy happy happy | Lawn Fawn

DIES
🦋 secret garden window | Lawn Fawn
