Three Cards from Six Sided Sampler

The first bundle I purchased out of the new catalog was the Six-Sided Sampler. This adorable stamp set and matching punch are full of possibilities - color combos, layers, and super sweet sentiments. Here are three cards I made when I sat down with my new bundle.

Card #1 - Happy Father's Day
I don't own a "Happy Father's Day" stamp, but I thought the "Thankful for you" banner stamp served its purpose. The stamped hexagons are both Midnight Muse and Gumball Green stamped and stamped again without re-inking to give it a bit of an ombray effect.

Supplies:
Whisper White Card Stock
Midnight Muse Card Stock
Gumball Green Card Stock
Midnight Muse Ink Pad
Gumball Green Ink Pad
Six-Sided Sampler Stamp Set
Banner Greetings Hostess Stamp Set
Hexagon Punch

Card #2 - Trying to make a pattern
This was tough! Here is where I should plug the Stamp-a-ma-jig. I don't own one, but it would have definitely come in handy here.

Supplies:
Whisper White Card Stock
Baked Brown Sugar Card Stock
Baked Brown Sugar Ink Pad
Strawberry Slush Ink Pad
Coastal Cabana Ink Pad
Six-Sided Sampler Stamp Set
Hexagon Punch

Card #3 - Layers
My favorite! I punched the white layer to show the Coastal Cabana card stock beneath, as well as punched out the Crisp Cantaloupe hexagons and raised them up with a Stampin' Dimensional.

A Congratulations Card for Graduation

I love this colorful card. I am still waiting patiently for my NEW In-Colors to arrive, but I'm falling in love with the old In-Colors all over again. This card features all five. I used the Floral Frames Framelits, Perfect PolkaDots Embossing Folder, Sweet Essentials Stamp Set, and the new Banner Greetings hostess set I just got. Love.

Epic Day This and That Birthday Wishes

My first pack of Designer Series Paper from the new catalog! I am really digging the color combo - Gumball Green, Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral, Basic Grey. I went with a Crumb Cake base and a Vintage Faceted button tied with some white baker's twine. Divine!

Banner Greetings Minicards

Three simple minicards to hand out to friends this weekend. This is the first time I've used the Simply Scored Scoring Tool to make a background to the card. It was a simple way to add some texture.

Happy Birthday Pennants

Our trusty laptop has apparently given up the internet for Lent. It refuses to connect, which leaves me with the iPad to take pictures of this week's card. First up is this little cutie. The combo is Basic Gray and Summer Starfruit. Yum!
