Hexagon-Shaped Birthday Card
Have you seen the Meant to Bee Dies offered in Stampin’ Up!’s January 2025 Scrapbooking Brochure? Even though I’m not an avid scrapbooker, I immediately thought of ways to use these hexagon-shaped dies.
Today, I share samples of shaped cards created with these dies.
Measurements and Details
Here are a few details to help you get started. Be sure to watch the video below to see a visual demonstration of how these cards come together.
- Basic Black Card Stock measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored and fold at 4 1/4
- Place the folded card stock on your die cut machine. Lay the largest die on- the card stock. Make sure the top of the die is just a bit above the fold line. You may need a sticky note or painter’s tape to hold the die in place. Die cut to create the card base.
- For this set of cards, I used Stampin’ Up!’s Mixed Media Florals Designer Series Paper. The featured card at the top of the post displays a sample where I colored the black and white patterns with Stampin’ Blends. Colors include: Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Petal Pink, and Crumb Cake. I die cut the patterned paper using the second-largest hexagon die. Don’t feel like coloring? Choose from a variety of other patterns. See picture below.
- Heat embossed the sentiments from the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set.
- Embellished with the Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems.
