Spring card idea using hexagon shapes from Stampin' Up! Beautiful Shapes Dies

                                      

  • Stampin' Up! Beautiful Shapes Dies
  • New Beginnings Paper Pumpkin Kit for April 2022
  • 20% discount on Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
Today's card uses an assortment of dies, stamp sets and papers to create these brightly colored Spring greeting cards.  The focus is on the Beautiful Shapes Dies, and the Black and White Prints from the 6" X 6" All Together Designer Series Paper, Item 160039, $11.50 USD.  This paper is part of a new collection called All Together, which includes stamps, natural tones Stampin' Blends, and Papers including the All Together Designer Series Paper. This paper includes 12 double sided (24 different black and white prints or images) you'll love creating with this Spring.  All Together Suite Collection isn't in the catalog, but you'll find the link here to learn more.  I matted each of the Black and White prints in Basic white and then created Black and Bumblebee layers for my card. I found that almost any horizontal sentiment from any of your stamp sets will work with this layout, so go ahead and experiment with a Bumblebee Cardstock shape and your favorite sentiment stamp. 



Spring Greeting Card idea using Hexigon shapes created with the Stampin' Up! Beautiful Shapes Dies and All Together Designer Series Paper



To create today's card, I used a base card of Bumblebee Cardstock.  Then I added a layer of Basic Black, and then Basic White.  I added a strip of the Bumblebee print from the Daffodil Afternoon 12" X 12" Designer Series Paper.  Although Sale-A-Bration is over, I'm enjoying the free selection of Daffodil Afternoon DSP.

Then, I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to create a Basic Black rectangle.  I used two sizes of the Beautiful Shapes Dies to create the three different black and white prints from the All Together Designer Series Paper, which I matted in Basic White cardstock.  I did trim down the Basic White layers as I think it looks better esthetically.  I placed the three  matted hexagn elements on the card front, and then added a small flower stamped using the Friendly Hello Stamp Set, another Sale-A-bration earned duriung Sale-A-bration that I'm finding useful after Sale-A-bration ended.

I finished the card by adding a Bumblebee sentiment layer.  I stamped sentiments in Tuxedo Black Memento ink, and added a few Matte Black Dots to my card to help tie the elements together.  Below are the elements used to create this card.

  • Stampin' Up! Polished Pink Pretty Floral Card
  • New Clearance Rack Items Coming 6 October- up to 60% off
  • September Haunts & Harvest Paper Pumpkin Refill Available & Case Insert Download! 

Time to replenish my Thank You cards, again.  Today I chose the Color & Contour Stamp Set and coordinating Scalloped Contours Dies for this quick, easy card using Polished Pink as my main color.  I used coordinating In Color 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper, and die cuts not only from the Scalloped Contours Dies, but additional dies cuts from the Layering Circles Dies, the Rectangle Stitched Dies, and the Encircled in beauty Dies.  The sentiment is from the Elegantly Said Stamp Set, and the edge of the sentiment includes a Polished Pink jewel from the 2021-2023 In Color Jewels assortment.  A nice bright card offering a simple thank you to a friend.

The basecard of for this card is Polished Pink Cardstock.  The entire basecard is covered with a print from the In Color 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper Assortment.  Then a die cut in Polished Pink using one of the dies from the Scalloped Contours Dies is placed over the card surface. 


Polished Pink Handmade Floral Thank You card using Color & Contour Stamp Set from Stampin' Up!


I stamped the floral image from the Color & Contour Stamp Set in Old Olive ink.  Then I used the flower fill stamps to color the flower heads.  I wanted a lighter pink than the background colors so I stamped off before coloring the flower heads.  I used an Old Olive Blends to color the stems and leaves, and then used the coordinating die from Scalloped Contours Dies to die cut the floral image. I popped it up on Dimensionals before adding it to my card front.

Thank You cards in Polished Pink Cardstock and Stampin' Up! Color & Contour Stamp Set


To highlight the sentiment, I die cut a border using the smallest die in the Encircled In Beauty Dies using Polished Pink Cardstock.  Then, I cut a circle in Basic White using one of the Layering Circles Dies and mounted it on the detailed die cut after stamping the sentiment from Elegantly Said Stamp Set in Polished Pink ink.  I added one of the Polished Pink Jewels from the 2021-2023 In Color Jewels assortment to complete the card.
