A little bit different ...

I don't usually use coloured card for my base but today it seemed to be an appropriate choice ...


I stamped some cream card with background stamps using distress inks before die cutting some different sized hexagons which I then adhered to the card base.  The sentiment was die cut a number of times to provide added dimension.  I'd planned the card to be portrait but when it came to adding the sentiment it seemed to work better as a landscape card.

 I used:
STAMPlorations - Mixed Media Elements
CUTplorations - Awesome die
Distress Inks - Vintage Photo and Rusty Hinge

 I'm entering the following challenges:

 "Less is More" #329


UNIKO #41 May/June Challenge


Enjoy!

    This is fabulous, Elaine! I love those stylish hexagons with the DI stamping - like a modern canvas - and the coloured card base works brilliantly. Really awesome! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Less is More :)

    Great idea for a bike's card - the geometric take and colours. Live the raised sentiment x

    Such a fun and unique card, loving the hexagon tiles and the subtle distressing. The layered sentiment die for dimension is an awesome feature too. Thanks so much for sharing and joining in on the Uniko Challenge. Hugs Bev x
