Hi there! Today I’m excited to join Simon Says Stamp for Day 2 of their Make Magic Release Blog Hop. You can check out the amazing new release HERE!
My project features the Sexy Hexies die set. These geometric little hexies make my heart go pitter patter! This is a great set to use those scraps of solid colored cardstock. For the sentiment I used one of the Reverse Sunshine and Rainbows Sentiment Strips.
Here is a video to show you how I created this project.
GIVEAWAWY!
Simon Says Stamp is giving away a $25 coupon to every stop on the hop. Leave me a comment for your chance to win! Winners will be posted on the Simon Says Stamp blog on Wednesday, the 28thth of July.

July 24, 2021 at 11:54 amI love watching all your videos as do my granddaughters; they love rainbows and just about all that you do! I’m not a fan of hexagons however, after watching your video, I just might be persuaded to buy just so I can incorporate these into our Math lessons as we homeschool. Think fractions could be fun don’t you think?

Lori Spitzer
July 25, 2021 at 8:17 pmHi, Laura – I saw this at the moment of the release and maybe in a few sample cards just before the site had the items available. I knew I had to watch my spending so I limited myself to just two or three items. This die set was one of the ones I chose. I looked back at the previous hexagon die set from about ?? 4 mos ago (maybe longer) and these hexagons (the larger ones) are larger than those. I knew I could combine them and make cool looks.
Love your card! Very CAS and yet colorful.
Love your stories just as much. That Emma is one lucky chica!! A rainbow and a puppy on your birthday?! Seriously, if she were older, I would have said “Go buy a lottery ticket!”
Always looking forward to your next video and always hoping my khakis don’t end up chapped! 😂
