Moxie Fab World - Hooked on Hexagons

I have been watching all the gorgeous cards with hexagons popping up everywhere!
I really want to get a stamp set and some dies, but I can't decide which set to go for -
they are all so gorgeous! Any recommendations gratefully accepted.
Moxie Fab World have a challenge celebrating the hexagon trend.



Anyway, because I don't currently own any stamps or dies, I hand drew 
a hexagon and then cut it out (using it as a stencil) and sponged and stamped with distress inks.
I then brushed gold pearl-ex powder on the stamped image to get more
shine. Then I cut out the shapes, stuck them on the background paper
and machine stitched them on. I had fun making this card and love
the richness of the distress inks. The chipboard bird is from Collections
and is covered with Christina Re paper. I'm not sure where i got the sentiment stamp.
The damask stamp is from Judikins and the label stamp is from Pink Paislee.
