Designer Tip: To create the hexagon photographs, I've used Microsoft Word software.
Click on the "Insert" tab and select "Shapes". Choose the hexagon shape and create a hexagon. When you're done, go to the "Drawing Tool" tab and click on "Shape fill".
Select "picture" and choose whichever photograph you want to use from your computer.
The photograph will automatically fit into the hexagon.
You can drag the hexagon to make it bigger or smaller.
(note: to have a better hexagon photograph, try to crop your photograph into a "square" shape first using picture editing software such as Picasa or Photoshop. This will ensure that the subject will still be in the middle of the hexagon photograph.)

Designer tip: To create my border, I used Hello Sunshine's little hexagon stamp and stamped
all the way around the edges of my page! It only took me a few minutes to do this -
and it gave my page a fun hexagon border!

Designer Tip: Since I was using a large photo, I cut out the center of the patterned paper as the photo mats/photo cover this space (hexagons) and then used this piece to 3D some of the hexagons to add dimension. I used chalk ink around the edges to add interest
I hope you guys are LOVIN' hexagons as much as I am....
