It's the last Inspired By Stamping sneak peek before all the sets are available in the store tomorrow! Today we're showcasing Hexagons. I went with a modern, gender-neutral baby card:
The sentiment is from a previously-released set, Big Notes III. I stamped the hexagon border first across the patterned paper. On scraps of white cardstock, I stamped the different patterns of individual hexies with many shades of brown ink. A few were propped up with foam stickers, as you can see in the photo below. My kids wrinkled their noses at this card, but I like it for something different!
Be sure to see what the rest of our design team has cooked up for you:
