Simon Says Stamp Thanks Floral Hexagon

Hello Crafty Friends, and thanks for joining me! Today’s project is featuring the new Elongated Hexagons from Simon’s latest release, Always There. When I saw these hexagons, I knew that I wanted to create a floral card, because that’s what I do! Florals are my jam, and I just can’t help that! Let’s go ahead and go through the details for this project.

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began the project by die cutting my florals using the Aurora Blooms, which I happened to pick up while I was at CREATE. I did some ink blending on the flowers using Seafoam, Surf, Mint and Sun-kissed inks. Those were then assembled and set aside while I worked on the other elements of the card.

I die cut a frame using the Elongated Hexagons, added some light ink blending using the Seafoam ink and embossed that center portion using the Tiny Floral Embossing Folder. The Thanks, which is from a retired set, was cut once from gold cardstock and twice from Neenah for a stacked look, which we all love! Before assembling the card, I did some heavy white splatter on the leaves for some added interest.

The card base was gold splattered and the hexagons were adhered using liquid glue. The leaves were secured with glue as well, while the flowers were adhered using foam tape. The sentiment and gold pearls were added to finish up this project.

That does it for this one! I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope you’ll swing by and check out the entire Always There release. Thanks for stopping by!
