Hexagon Pocket Card Details
I’ve fallen in love with the Symbols of Fortune Designer Paper. The gold foil accents on one side of this double-sided paper are exquisite! Whether making this card for a birthday, anniversary, wedding, promotion or retirement, I think you’ll agree that this card is impressive!
Don’t miss out on the Double Oval Punch! It’s a secret gem in the annual catalog and provides both the basic oval and the scallop oval shapes. That’s two punches in one!
Fine Art Ribbon includes gorgeous gold filaments in the strand and it’s soft and pliable. Perfect for tying this fun fold card closed!
Looking for intricate dies that a great for masculine cards as well? The Crane of Fortune Bundle (stamp set + coordinating dies) includes intricate greenery and a crane image.
Once twisted closed, this card provides a location for up to three inserts into self-made pockets! Best of all, it fits in a medium size envelope beautifully!
Hexagon Pocket Card | In Symmetry
Modern and bright, the In Symmetry stamp set and Sweet Symmetry Designer Paper provide all the color and emphasis you need for this unusual card. Stampin’ Up!’s color coordination ensures that your stamped images will beautifully coordinate with their designer papers and accessories.
Instead of a ribbon closure, like I created on the first card, this card boasts a belly band made from the designer paper. Be sure not to wrap the belly band strip too tightly if you intend for the receiver to slide it off. The connecting ends of this designer paper are strategically hidden behind the flower.
It’s no secret that I love bling! Here I clustered matching rhinestones to create a bold focal point on the flower.
Use the designer paper palette to determine your color scheme. Bold and cheerful, Calypso Coral, Night of Navy and Bumblebee stamped images accent the designer paper without overwhelming the card’s appearance.
Looking for extra space to write messages or have multiple people sign a card? This fancy fold card is perfect for that and doesn’t skimp on flare!
Hexagon Pocket Card | Graduation Card
One glance at this hexagon shape and I knew it could be converted into a graduation cap. Simple designer paper from the All Together Designer Papers provided the perfect texture without taking away from the simplicity of the card.
Change up the cardstock and designer paper to customize your graduation card to mimic your graduates school colors! And don’t miss the tassel! I’ve linked my resource for them in my Craft Room Favorites HERE. Choose from 11 colors in a package of 20 for under $7!
Every college-bound student needs a gift card! Add your gift card to one of the inserts using Glue Dots. It fits perfectly and tucks inside this card for a fun reveal!
