Stamp Review Crew: Six-Sided Sampler

Hello everyone! Welcome to another blog hop from the Stamp Review Crew! For this hop we are featuring projects that use the Six-Sided Sampler stamp set! If you came from Holly's blog then you are on the right track. If you are just starting here that's just fine, too! And if you get lost, you can always click the image at the top of this post to take to you to the home page to get a list of all the blog participants. Please note that Monday is the official hop day so some links may not be working until then. Thank you for your patience!

I made a very simple card for today's hop. I love this stamp set and its coordinating punch! It makes using the set very simple! I also took a color scheme from Color Throwdown from a month ago. The colors are Tangerine Tango, Basic Gray and Pear Pizzazz (I substituted Pear Pizzazz for Certainly Celery)

This layout was inspired by a card that my friend Becky did for our shoebox club a few months ago. I did changed it up a bit . 

• Card base is Basic Gray
• A piece of Tangerine Tango is adhered to the card base
• Tie a piece of Basic Gray stitched grosgrain ribbon around a panel of Whisper White
• On another piece of Whisper White, stamp the hexagon shapes from Six-Sided Sampler in Tangerine Tango and Pear Pizzazz and punch out using the hexagon punch
• Adhere the hexagon shapes to the Whisper White panel (three are adhered flat and two are adhered with dimensionals)
• Stamp the greeting with Basic Gray and then adhere panel to card with dimensionals
• Add rhinestones to card

There you have it! Pretty simple! Thanks for stopping by! Be sure to click the image below to go to Paula's blog to see more incredible inspiration! Have a super day!

Mojo 331

Good morning, Friends! I hope your week is off to a great start! It snowed here all day yesterday but nothing really stuck to the ground so the streets were just wet all day. It's supposed to continue today but we will see. We need the moisture so I'm glad when it doesn't stick around too long - lol! I'm making progress on my project and hope to have them done in the next few days!! It's great when I can stamp a few cards and then work on my project while watching it snow. Glad I can be by the fire!!

Today's card was inspired by the sketch at Mojo Monday. Was going for a different look. Seems like most of my cards have been a lot of white on white! I am glad that I just got more white card stock!! This one is vanilla. But I do have a lot more white cards - lol!! 

• Card base is Very Vanilla
• Adhere a piece of Gumball Green to card base
• Adhere a strip of Basic Gray to card
• Use the Banners framelits to cut a banner from Epic Day designer paper and adhere to card
• Round the top right corner of a piece of Calypso Coral and adhere to card with dimensionals

• Stamp the three hexagons from Six-Sided Sampler in  Gumball Green, Daffodil Delight and Pool Party onto Very Vanilla and punch out using the hexagon punch then adhere to card with dimensionals
• Add two rhinestones (I would have put mini brads but I was too late so rhinestones it was)

Hexie Friend

Good morning, Friends! I hope your week is off to a great start! Boy the wind blew yesterday! Geesh!! I looked outside this morning and noticed that we have several big branches down in the yard. Sometimes I wonder how this house doesn't blow away! I do hope it is calmer today. 

Today's card was inspired by the challenge at CAS-ual Fridays. Actually it was inspired by the first card from the design team. The theme for the challenge is "over the edge". It's hard to see in the photo but my sentiment does go over the edge of the first layer. Anyway, Lorena's card was just so unique and colorful and I just fell in love with it! So off I went to try and recreate it with my Stampin' Up! supplies! Here are the card details:

• Card base is Whisper White
• Layer of Whisper White
• Punch five strips using the dotted ribbon scallop punch from Crisp Cantaloupe, Pistachio Pudding, Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana and Pink Pirouette
• Adhere these strips to Whisper White layer and pop the panel up onto the card
• Punch 3/4" circle from Basic Black card stock then use the hexagon punch to punch out shape
• Stamp sentiment from Six-Sided Sampler onto strip of Whisper White in black StazOn
• Slip strip through the punched shape and adhere together then pop this up onto card
• Punch flower from Calypso Coral using itty bitty shapes punch pack, adhere to card and add a rhinestone to flower center

There you have it!! A simple card! I just love the colors on this and the impact of the black! Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy your day!

Gorgeous Hexagons

Good morning, Friends! I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend! I was so thankful that I could sleep in! Now I'm here, blogging with a very tasty cup of coffee! Life is good!! Sounds like my men are going to go fishing today so that means I will be by myself today - yea!! I will be trying to get some stamping done and I'll probably do some stitching as well. Who knows but it will be delightful!!

Today's card was the last one I did with my stamp club. I really liked the way this one turned out! After looking and browsing blogs and websites and other pictures, I came up with my own layout for this one. Here are the card details:

• Card base is Crumb Cake
• Layer of Crumb Cake that has been sponged with Crumb Cake
• Stamp spots and lines from Gorgeous Grunge in Crumb Cake onto Crumb Cake layer
• Adhere strip of designer paper from Epic Day designer series paper pack with end flagged
• Stamp greeting from Six-Sided Sampler in Basic Grey and add two mini brads
• Pop layer up onto card
• Using the hexagon punch, punch five hexagons from Epic Day designer paper and sponge edges
• Adhere to card (three are adhered flat and two are popped up)

And there it is! Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!!

Honeycomb Hex

Good morning, Friends! I hope your week is off to a fabulous start! Yesterday Becky and I went to Montrose to check out a quilt store. Turns out we drove all that way to find out it is closed on Mondays. Bummer!! I was really looking forward to seeing it! So we had a nice lunch and then stopped in Delta on the way home and managed to find a few things to buy. Guess we will have to plan another trip to see it! Today I will be focusing on the laundry and working hard to get that caught up! I have let it get out of hand - yikes! 

Today's card was inspired by one I saw on Pinterest. I stamped the splotches from Gorgeous Grunge in Smoky Slate onto a piece of Smoky Slate and sponged the edges in Smoky Slate. This is popped up onto a card base of Smoky Slate. Then I ran a piece of Pistachio Pudding through the Big Shot with the Honeycomb TIEF. This is adhered to the card. I stamped the image from Six-Sided Sampler in Strawberry Slush onto Whisper White and cut around it. This is adhered to a hexagon that was punched from Smoky Slate using the hexagon punch. I popped this up onto the card. The sentiment is stamped onto a strip of Whisper White using Smoky Slate and then adhered to the card. I added a rhinestone to finish it off! Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!

Smoky Hex

Good morning, Friends! It's another fabulous and hot day here! Lots of fires being reported in our state of Colorado. I just recently heard about one that is on our side of the mountains (the Western Slope). Sure hope we get the much needed rain soon! Nick spent the night with a friend last night so I will pick him up today and then we need to do a little Father's Day shopping! 

Today's card uses some new product that I had fun experimenting with. I wanted to see how easy it was to line up the stamps without a stamp-a-ma-jig. And I managed quite nicely! First I adhered a piece of Basic Black to card base of Smoky Slate. Then I used the hexagon punch to punch out the shape from a piece of Smoky Slate. I sponged the inside edges of the punched shape. Then I stamped the outline hexagon image from Six-Sided Sampler a few times around the punched shape in Smoky Slate. I also stamped it onto another scrap piece of Smoky Slate. I figured out where the scrap piece would go and adhered that to the Basic Black. Then I tied some 1/8" Basic Black ribbon around the panel and popped it up onto the card. I stamped the greeting in black StazOn and added a flower that was punched from Strawberry Slush with the itty bitty shapes punch pack. This is adhered to the card and a rhinestone added. Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!
