Hello friends! Nichol here today with a rainbow hexagon pattern card featuring the Hexagon Patterns Stamp Set and coordinating dies, Bee Hive Stamp Set and coordinating dies, and Hi Honey Stamp Set and coordinating dies. The hexagons were all stamped on smooth white cardstock with clear embossing ink, heat embossed with white embossing powder, and then inked for embossed resist hexagons! The rainbow pattern provides a great pop of color on a clean white background!

For the hexagons, I chose designs with some white area (no solid hexagon stamps for this design) and stamped 10 hexagons from the Hexagon Patterns Stamp Set on smooth white cardstock with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
The hexagons were die cut with the hexagon dies that cut close to the stamped/embossed design and then inked with the following Distress Ink colors for embossed resist:
Picked Raspberry, Candied Apple, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, Shaded Lilac, and Wilted Violet
The hexagons were adhered to the A2 background (4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″) with foam adhesive squares for a dimensional background.
The bee “trails” from the Bee Hive Stamp Set and the phrase “life is sweeter” from the Hi Honey Stamp Set were stamped on the background with black dye ink.
Bees from the Bee Hive Stamp Set were stamped on smooth white cardstock with black ink for Copic Coloring, colored in with W5, W7, R21, Y08, Y19, BV0000, and BV01 before being die cut with the coordinating dies.
The bees were adhered to the card as shown.
The “BEEcause” Hi Honey Die was die cut from smooth white cardstock adhered to Fun Foam with Stick It Adhesive and each letter was inked with a rainbow of Distress Inks. The letters were adhered to the die cut “shadow” and then the whole thing was popped up with foam adhesive above the stamped phrase.
Tiny, tiny hearts from the Rainbow Wishes Dies were die cut from a scrap of the white cardstock adhered to Fun Foam and inked with Candied Apple Distress Ink. The heart were adhered to the design as shown.
The phrase “with you in it” from the Hi Honey Stamp Set was stamped inside the card with black dye ink to finish the design.
