Hexagon Hey There Card

Hooray it's Friday! I have a quick post to share this Hexagon Hey There Card I made using this weeks Freshly Made Sketch. I was determined to use my new hexagon punch* and Six-Sided Sampler stamp set* by Stampin' Up!. My new supplies arrived on my doorstep last week and they were just waiting for me to use them.  The polka dot patterned paper is from the Afternoon Picnic dsp and the accent colors are Strawberry Slush, Wisteria Wonder, Crushed Curry and Crisp Cantaloupe stamped onto Very Vanilla card stock. The Hey There sentiment is from the Paper Pumpkin starter kit and I stamped it in Baked Brown Sugar. To pull the color of the sentiment together with the rest of the card I used one of the itty bitty punches with Baked Brown Sugar card stock and created connectors for the hexagons. The final touch was a few small rhinestones. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend!

My Hexagon Hey There Card is entered into the following challenges:

• Freshly Made Sketches: Sketch
• There She Goes: Anything Goes
• Stampin' for the Weekend: Anything Goes

Hexagon Thinking of You Card

Good evening! I've been busy tonight making this Hexagon Thinking of You Card for the Mojo Monday sketch challenge. I used the sewing machine again for some stitching detail. If you're wondering how long this card took me to make??? From start to finish was about two hours. Now, keep in mind I was watching TV and when Castle came on, my pace got a lot slower. It's hard to concentrate when Nathan Fillion  is visiting my craft room! Thanks for stopping by!

• Paper: Very Vanilla, Baja Breeze, Tangerine Tango, and Lucky Limeade card stock by Stampin' Up!, Dark Navy card stock by The Paper Studio, and Persnickety Collection Patterned Paper by Lily bee design.

Hexagon & Twine Note Card

There are so many great card challenges online that it's really hard to pick which ones to participate in.  Tonight I combined the Color Throwdown challenge and the Moxie Fab World hooked on hexagons challenge.  I started by using my Cricut machine to cut out the hexagon shapes and the fancy hexagon shadows featured on the Winter Wonderland cartridge.  Then I knew I wanted to use twine and the design just evolved from there.  This card has that modern feel that reminds me of the contemporary card I made back in May.  


Hexagon & Twine Note Card Supplies:

• Paper: Very vanilla, chocolate, tempting turquoise, pumpkin pie, and pink cardstock by Stampin' Up!, and green polka dot patterned paper by Paper Pizazz.
• Stamps: TPC Studios greetings set, ST93416.
• Inks: ColorBox chalk ink in chestnut roan.
• Other Stuff: Cricut machine, Winter Wonderland Cricut cartridge, brown doodle twine, and stampin' dimensionals.
