Greetings!
One of the very first things my eyeballs zoomed in on when I flipped through the new 2023-2024 Annual Catalog were the die shapes showing elongated hexagons and rounded corner rectangles. I HAD to find out what die set they were part of! The fantastic news is they are both in the same set of dies, in multiple sizes, along with banners. The edges have great features such as double rows of "stitching" on the banners, angled "stitching" on the elongated hexagons, and pierced edges on the rounded corner rectangles. I love those added touches that are unique to each shape!
I decided these shapes would be fun to play with for a masculine card. I chose the blue plaid print from the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper (DSP) and the Best Family Ever stamp set, which is loaded with words to create your own customized message. Here's what the finished card looks like:
