Hexagon Aperture/ A Gift For You

Hello crafters!  I haven't done this in awhile, but I am showcasing two dies sets during this post.  First up is the Hexagon Aperture die set.  This one works the same exact way as the squares and the circles, but there are five apertures instead of four is all.  I am a big fan of hexagons as I just think they are just a bit different than the usual four shapes.  We are also showcasing ne of the small mini expressions which you can see (at least part of it) here in this sample.  If you leave a comment on this post and your name is drawn, you will receive both of these sets (don't you just love a two-fer!)  I will be back here for the final post of the day at 6pm, hope you can join me then!  all for now. Sue x

Again, love the post and both die sets - can see bees being used with this one quite a lot. It is also a must have if you have the other aperture dies...

Great die sets. I love the sentiments.

Afternoon Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh my word I would never have thought of the hexagons, and the inserts, brilliant, I am liking this one very much, you know this is going to be very popular don't you Sue. xx

Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxxx

Wow! As you say the hexagons are different & having the extra apperture just gives you even more options. We are being spoilt with these square cards. Love the background on this card & the new sentiment. Thank you sue for all this inspiration.

Steph Cotterill said...

Well these are different. I love the little accessories aren't they cute. Your brain must be frazzled by the time you've finished one launch then straight onto other design thoughts ready for the next launch and all that it entails. So far, so special xx

CarolT said...

A great set of dies, love the hexagons xx

Robin Sachs said...

Hi Sue,
I absolutely love the Squares Collection - Hexagon Aperture/A Gift For You. I, too, love Hexagons. I use my Noble Hexagons all the time. This card is just beautiful and the Sentiment is a perfect addition. I am a big fan of Mini Expressions. I can’t wait to add this to my collection. Be well and stay safe!

Hello Sue
This collection just keeps getting better and better you are spoiling us. It is very difficult to choose I love them all.

Helen Bell said...

Hi Sue

These compliment your squares collection so much. As you say they are a bit different. Great card too.

Wow a two-fer in the drawing, I don’t think I’ve seen this before.

Love Helen xxx

Judy Hollers said...

The hexagons certainly do have more pizzaz than the circles and squares! I love the embellishments inside each hexagon. Hugs. Judy Hollers from NC

Crafty Vonnie said...

Good evening Sue,
A beautiful card, I love that this set has 5 apertures. Beautiful fonts on the sentiments. Yvonne xx

Princess Pixie! said...

Hi Sue
I too love hexagons and these cute little apertures are very different to the usual ones that we see. I think this is my favourite die so far although it’s very close. The ‘a gift for you’ sentiment is going to prove very useful and I love the way the font is mixed and you have split it. Very useful indeed x

Love hexagonal so this die is wonderful as well as the word die too. Already thinking of ways to use em

Clai01 said...

I always tend to relate hexagons with quilting mainly and sewing but this is another must have die and sentiments are more the merrier for me personally and always worthwhile having x
