Good Morning!

1) Start by using Calypso Coral as a card base scored at 4 ¼ “ (fold line).

2) Then using Basic Black cut Layer 1 and Whisper White cut Layer 2.

3) On anther piece of Whisper White card stock, stamp any 5 of the hexagons from the Six-Sided Sampler stamp set, using 4 different coloured ink (Calypso Coral, Cherry Cobbler, Tangerine Tango, and Melon Mambo) 

4) Using the coordinating Hexagon Punch, punch out the stamped images.

5) Take a piece of Whisper White, and die cut the “hello” from the Hello You Thinlets Die Set using the Big Shot.

6)Emboss the die “hello” die cut using Versamark Ink, Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder and the Heat Tool. Repeat this step to create 2 layers of gold embossing for a more raised effect.

7) Using Fast Fuse adhesive, add the punched out stamped hexagons to Layer 2 using any desired pattern, or use the pattern I used.

8) Wrap Gold Metallic Thread around the piece of Whisper White making an "X".

9) Add dabs of Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the back of the “hello” die cut and adhere it to Layer 2 while overlapping the hexagons.

10) Optional: Add some Gold Sequence from the Metallics Sequin Assortment for a little bling!

11) Add Layer 1 onto the back of Layer 2 and then adhere that one peice to the card base front using either Dimensionals or Fast Fuse Adhesive.
