I’m so happy with how this turned out. The base is reinforced and it is so easy to put together. We made this in a recent card club and it was a blast. I host a monthly card club in my Facebook group. It’s a night of great crafting for all.

I knew I wanted my hexagon to have 2″ sides and went online to find a template for such a hexagon. I then printed it off and cut it. This template was used to make the base of the box. The template was for a 4″ wide hexagon and can be found here.

I love the corals and oranges in this card. The butterflies are stamped in a black that I can heat emboss. I used Versafine onyx black. I then heat embossed in a clear embossing powder. This helps the watercolour stay in the lines. The watercolouring is very simple using Pumpkin Pie and Calypso Coral ink pads.

  • Happy Forest Friends – 14.35cm X 10cm
