Hexi-Gems Background Card + Color Hues #63

Hello! The Spellbinders May 2023 release is now available, and I have a fun card to share with you, featuring the awesome Hexi-Gems dies! ๐Ÿคฉ

(Compensated affiliate links may be used at no additional cost to you. You can find the products that I used in the text below and also at the end of the post. Thank you!)

I love nesting dies!! They’re so versatile and there are many different ways to use them. Exactly six months ago, I shared some ideas for nesting dies, using the Spellbinders Floral Reflection dies – click here to see them.

Today, I’m sharing another idea – “tiling” – using the new Hexi-Gems dies ๐Ÿ™‚

Hexi Gems Background Card 1

I used one of the smaller dies in the set to cut the different “tiles”, and arranged them on the front panel. The color scheme is inspired by the Hot Pink and Cyan challenge at Color Hues:

As you can see, I also used light gray tiles, to balance the bright colors โค๏ธ

Because the background turned out so pretty, I decided to simply add a white sentiment stamp (from the Spellbinders Simply Perfect Mix & Match Sentiments die set):

Hexi Gems Background Card 2

I love the contrast between the script sentiment and the hexi-gems background on this card ๐Ÿ˜

Thank you so much for stopping by today! For updates about new posts, please follow me onย Instagramย andย Pinterest.

Happy Tuesday! โค๏ธ

    Hi, Michal! My apologies for my late comment, I have been on vacation and as I type am in the airport during a long layover. Love your labor intensive card using our bright colors. The greeting is a pretty font as well. Thanks for playing along at Color Hues.
