Hexagon Hive In White

BySue Madex March 11, 2014September 8, 2025

Another Hexagon Hive thinlit card today for you. This time I’ve used one of the designs from the Retro Fresh DSP (patterned paper) and topped it with a Whisper White layer.

Some pretty flowers and pearls to finish, popped up on some of our handy Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I hope you get some creative time this week. Got any projects on the go? I’ve hunted out a bunch of photos of my siblings and I and am halfway through a little album using the Mini Memories Simply Created Album Kit. I’ve got 2 sisters and a brother and it has been fun looking through the photos from when we were kids. Looking forward to seeing how the album turns out.

Cheers, Sue
