Recently I’ve been busy, busy with a lot of things going on here, but I knew with the Hooked on Hexagons Challenge going on currently over at the MoxieFab World, it wouldn’t be long before I'd start playing with hexagons again!
Stamps (Hero Arts) – Sew Artsy, Woodgrain Background, Magical Background, Friend Definition, Dot Flower Pattern, Lattice Background and Hydrangea.
As I was trying to make different patterns out of hexagons, I realised that by removing one from the centre of a cluster of hexagons, I could form a star shape. So I used up lots of little scraps, which had already been stamped, to fill my star centre. Then I just added some machine stitching and a sentiment to finish.
One of the things that has been keeping me busy is preparing for a class I'm doing in An Siopa Bui in Spiddal on Saturday and I just finished cutting 75 circles of fabric (thank goodness for Cuttlebugs!) as part of the preparation - phew! Kerry has some sneak peeks here of some of the cards we'll be making. I can't wait for it!

Great card I love the mix of colors with black hexagons =)
That is such a wonderful pattern with your hexagons and I love the colors!
OH what a fun design!
Oh, you are so clever, Heather! This is absolutely fantastic!
This is such a cool design Heather, love how the star pops against the black!
clever idea Heather. The bright star in the middle looks stunning. I wish I was able to take your class... the sneak peeks look such fun.
Amazing use of the hexagons with the star in center, Heather!! I love the combo of stamps you used on the star pieces! Have fun with your class on Saturday!!
great card!!! well done...
Oh that class is tomorrow isn't it? Doesn't look like I'll make it, so disappointed! Love this card, the black makes the colours so bright. Ger x.
You have showed great perseverance behind the blog. It's been enriched since the beginning. I love to share to with my friends. Carry on.
Found you Heather! Looking forward to checking out the rest of the blog! Love the hexagons- did u cut them out or use a die? Love shapes that can be used for patchwork effects.
Thanks everyone for the lovely comments, I really appreciate them:)
Helen, I die cut the hexagons.
