Heartfelt Hexagons Sending Lots of Love Card. Stamping with Friend Blog Hop May 2024

Good Evening Everyone

Tonight I'm taking part in the Stamping with Friends Blog Hop and the theme is '2024-2026 In Colors'.

Ill be honest - from seeing these online when they were first introduced, I really wasn't sure about them. Of course they fell into my basket and do you know what, I absolutely LOVE them.

SO, when coming up with a design for my card today, I really struggled to chose which colours to use - so I thought why not use them all.

This layout is super easy and a great way to attack that scrap pile!

What do you think?

Measurements

Petunia Pop Card Stock

1pc - 5 7/8" x 8 1/4" scored at 4 1/8"

Basic White Card Stock

2pc - 3 7/8" x 5 5/8"

scrap

2024 - 2026 In Color DSP

scraps of all colours

---------------------------------------

Take the Petunia Pop card stock and fold along the score line to create your card base.

Add one of the Basic White Pieces to the inside.

Cut out a shape using the Heartfelt punch and adhere to the remaining piece of Basic White (this is just a marker to help you get spacing right - the sentiment will sit directly over the top of it.)

Now using the same punch cut a selection of shapes from the 2024-2026 In Color DSP. Arrange all of these around the punch out you stuck to the Basic White, making sure you space evenly and spread out the colours and designs for a random finish. Once it has been filled, trim off any overhanging pieces and add this to the card front.

On a scrap of Basic White stamp the outline image in Pretty in Pink adding the sentiment into to centre with Shy Shamrock. Ink up the small flower image in Peach Pie and then use 2nd Generation stamping (stamp off once) and fill the area.

Cut out with the Heartfelt Punch and then add over the other Basic White shape on your card front with dimensionals.

I hope you have enjoyed my card today - please take a few minutes to continue through the hop. All these ladies are incredibly talented and will give you so much inspiration
