#TCH127 ... Hexagon Birthday Card

Good morning, friends!  I'm back again with another birthday card for this week's The Color Hues Challenge - they have a very unique color combo, so of course, I had to make a card!




I bought some nested hexagon dies about a year ago, and I'm barely using them now.  Like I said before, I really need to use what I already have in my stash and stop buying more crafty stuff! Haha!  This card will go to The Creative Kindness Foundation, through scrapbook.com.  I always love to make cards, help spread some joy to those who need it most.

Supplies:
Paper: All from my stash
Stamp: Hero Floral Tulips (Hero Arts)
Ink: Black Licorice (MFT)
