I took inspiration from the colorful cardstock and the puzzle-like design and created this card...
The card was assembled from 5 different pieces cardstock. The white base measures 5"X5" and the colored pieces measure 5" X 5-1/4". The extra 1/2" is used as a tab to adhere the flap to the white base. Starting from the outermost flap, I cut the largest square. I used that die cut to center the next layer and so on until all 4 layers were cut.
Here you can see the 4 layers cut out and ready to be attached to the white card base. Each folded tab is adhered to the white base using narrow scoretape onto the 4 sides of the card base.
Thanks so much to everyone for playing along! It's been a blast checking out everyone's cards!
Mahalo and Aloha,
