When you can hide the effect, the surprise is that much more enjoyable. My wife wanted a box for a gift card. I said I think I can do better.
Whoa! Mindblown! 
That’s the spirit! Make ‘em work for their gift card.
Really amazing box!
Clever way to disguise the fingers, excellent. Got an in progress shot of the springs?
This is fun!
That’s a very cool mechanism!
Thats pretty neat. 
Thanks for the replies. I think I will post the design under the free designs when I get home and provide a link.
Fancy, cute, and clever! I like it! I am sure it will be a hit with folks who receive such a cool gift (on top of a gift).
That is awesome! I love designing trickery! 
You can find the design here:
Hope you enjoy it!
Well I know how I’m “wrapping” giftcards from now on! Brilliant ‘retention’ clamps. Simply brilliant.
Love the design and creativity!
Thank you all for the compliments. Somebody mentioned I should put leaves on the slot, so it looks like a flower stem and the flower is growing. Some other ideas are a rocket ship taking off, a boat sailing airplane, or some other vehicle. I suppose an arrow, baseball, football, golf ball, or some other ball could work too.
This is super cool!!
what kind of spring are you talking about. will a inkpen spring work cut down orany spring.
In the original post, the designer states that a wooden spring mechanism is inside that is released when the flower is moved forward.
Very nice!
