Christmas in July 24



Today's card follows a new trend in card making and scrapbooking - Hexagons!  Hexagon stamps, hexagon punches, hexagon designs - they're everywhere!

I'm familiar with this design since Mom is a quilter, and uses them often in her quilts and now they seem to be making a splash in paper crafting.  

This card came together very quickly.  The only decision was what color to use in addition to the regular Christmas Reds and Greens.  I hit upon Stampin' Ups new color - Smoky Slate.  It's a very nice light gray.  Unobtrusive, but adds a nice accent to a color palette.  (Just my opinion, of course.)

Please enjoy!
