This will be a sketch challenge and I will get my example up later today. Having issues with the computer and the memory card. This is for paper and digi and you are playing for a 5 ACOT GC. All submissions are due by midnight July 31st. You can do it as a 2 pager or a one page. Mine will be a one page! I found this sketch on the basic grey blog. I love seeing new work so challenges can not be combined.


Thanks to all participants! You all did an amazing job!

Winner is Ayla aka Nancy. Congrats!!!!

Ha! Look familiar, Sandi? Of course I just finished a hex page this morning! Well, have to see if I can come w/another. Great challenge!

Great sketch, I think I just came up with some photos to do the hexagons with.

This is a great layout to inspire us - can't wait to see what you do with it!

I loved this sketch from Basic Grey. I just finished a two page layout using this sketch last month. Now to find some more pics and papers for this one. Here's the layout from last month.




Thanks for a great challenge.

Thank you Janet for the very challenging challenge. I didn't have a hexagon punch, so DH made me a template and I had to cut them all out by hand. I will now invest in a punch. Here's my LO.

This is a awesome layout Mildred. I love your hand cut hexagons!

Here is mine. I used a template for the hexagons that I found on Pinterest via a PDF document. Printed them on the back of this thick pattern paper, then I cut them out:

Bella is so cute. I love your LO. The colors of your hexagons are great for your background.

How on earth can I make hexagons by hand? need ideas.

Google!! This is for a saw but you get the idea of how to cut from a square. Play w/a couple til you like it, then use that as a pattern to make a whole sheet & cut them out! (unless you have one somewhere on a sticker or piece of paper, then just use that...)

3rd idea - there are downloadable Word templates! (Google hexagon - choose images)

I've been seeing a lot of hexagons lately on layouts! Cool challenge. Not sure I'll have time to get it done!

I googled Hexagon Imagies. I picked one and copied it into word. Then I printed off and had DH transfer it onto a piece of cardboard. Then he cut it out and now I have a template. I took the template and traced it on the back sides of the paper I wanted. Then I used a ruler and my exacto knife and cut them out. It is a bit time consuming but they turn out great. I am now going to invest in a punch.
