Trim a piece of mixed media white paper to 4" x 5 1/4
Tape stencil to white paper to secure and using a stencil brush, add ink
Remove stencil and set aside
Using the #2 Hexagon die, cut out 7 hexagons from a variety of papers
Adhere hexagons to stenciled card front as shown
Trim hexagon pieces that hang off card front
Stamp sentiment with blue ink as shown
Adhere card front to card base
