Another Attempt to Conquer Hexagons

I mentioned last week that even though I love the look and feel of hexagons I am not a pro in incorporating them in my projects.  Well, in that case I'll keep challenging myself until I become comfortable with them.

I've made another card using hexagons:


I think this one is better than the last one I made.  I like it!

The card is made based on the sketch from Sketch Saturday:


With all those hexagons it is entering the challenge at Less is More - Hexagons.

And this card is entering the challenge at Color My Heart Color Dare - Honey.  I've used Cocoa, Cashmere and Honey.  No other colors.  I had never tried this combo before but I started with confidence that I could use the color palette from Buzz and Bumble paper packet by slightly changing Sunset to Honey.  It worked well.  Don't you think?

Thanks for stopping by!

    Wow, I really like this colour combo, Joyce! Makes a subtle background for your bumblebee and poppy. Great job incorporating all those challenge elements, too. Thanks for linking up at Color My Heart this week. We always enjoy seeing your work.

    Joyce, I love your hexagon patterned birthday card! It follows the sketch so well. I like the addition of the flowers in the forefront too. Thanks for playing along with us at Color My Heart Color Dare again!
