Just Channeling My Hippie-ness! "A Blog Named Hero" Shaped Card Challenge Inspiration!

 Hello!!

We're nearing the end of the current challenge, so hurry and get entered for a chance to win!  I chose to do a "hippie hexagon" with a rainbow of inks!


I die-cut 3 of the largest hexagon panels and scored one at 1/4" from the top.  I added Scor-tape to make a hinge.  Then I ink-blended randomly the last panel.  I stamped the Marble cling stamp with Versamark and used clear embossing powder.  I ran over the whole top with my darkest ink (Peacock Feathers- Everything is linked below--AFIL Thank you!!)

I layered the panels and added a thin black frame by using the two largest dies together.  I die-cut the sentiment three times and stacked for dimension.

Lastly, I added some hippy looking flower sequins and placed a jewel in the middle.  Super simple!

Here are the supplies I used:
I'll see you in a couple weeks with a brand new challenge!  (Of course, I hope to have a YT tutorial before that:)

Fun Flip Flop Shaped Card W/Free Template--"A Blog Named Hero's" Shaped Card Challenge!

Hello!!

It's a sunny day here in Ohio, but too cold just yet to go to the beach.  But I can dream!!


I don't have a flip flop die and decided not to "cheat" and use my Scan 'n Cut because many folks don't have them.  So, I made an "old-fashioned" hand drawn template!  You can download it free below.  I also have all the supplies linked below for you convenience (AFIL-Thank You for your support!)

All of the instructions are included on my Youtube video also linked below.  I hope you will enjoy it (and if you do...please like, subscribe and hit that bell for notifications!)
