I’m having another busy blog week because I'm already back to share another sketch. I also have a free template, a free .svg file, and some awesome example pages from a few friends to share. Let's get going! Please feel free to download the sketch to your computer by right clicking on the image and then clicking "Save As". This sketch was inspired by the hexagons that are popping up all over the internet. I'm hopping aboard the latest scrappy trend and you can too!
The first example page is by my good friend Nancy. I love the photo of her with her husband and the quote she used as a title is just perfect! She used fabric hexagons and they turned out wonderfully. All in all, this page is super sweet!
The next page is by Juliann Marchant. She's on the Scraptastic Club design team with me and she used the awesome "A Boy's Life" kit to create this layout. Juliann used a polka dot mask instead of hexagons and she did some wonderful stitching to draw the eye around her page. Her photo is so fun too!
Thank you for the example pages Juliann and Nancy! I always appreciate the creative help.
I created an example page as well. I used the Scraptastic Club Hearts A Flutter kit and add on. I cut the hexagons on my Cricut using Sure Cuts A Lot software and the free .svg file that I'll link below. I usually make a digital example as well but I ran out of time.
This is what the .svg file looks like. It's sized at 8.5x11 inches but it's easily resized. You can also use the negative space between the cuts as chicken wire if you cut some of the edges off. I love it when you can use one file for two different applications.
Here's the download link for the free hexagon .svg file. http://www.box.com/s/z49motgaiyboz1ph2sr3

Danica,
I've been using 4shared for years and only recently started having problems with them. I've been contacting customer service to see if they can solve the problem so I don't have to manually pull each file over to box.net. I have so many files that I just cringe at the idea. I'm hoping 4shared is able to work it out. I just tried one change, can you see if you can download now and come back to let me know?
Thanks,
Heather
Hi Heather my your work is awesome here, thank you for the lovely comment you left for me on Mitra's blog re my Liebster. xx
These layouts are great...love the freebies too. Not sure what to do with them...do I save them to a file and then print with laser printer or any type of printer...
I'm new to these...
Heather!!! I love this sketch and just made a page with it! YAy!!!! And I absolutely adore the pages you created! Thanks so much for the inspiration!!!!!
Love these layouts & the sketch! I would have to hand cut those hexagons, but if I get a chance to use your sketch I will definitely let you know...so gorgeous!!
