Six Sided Sampler

Well, the new catalogue is here and I've been having fun playing around with some of the great new stamp sets. This card features the Six Sided Sampler, which I think will be quite a versatile set to own. I have used one of the stamps to frame letters from the notable alphabet set to create a cute baby card.
This set also couples with a hexagon punch.
