When I was a very young girl, I had a play set that only I remember (so it might have been a dream). It was made up of colorful hexagon tiles and a large mat or paper that had a hexagon grid on it. You could make shapes and pictures by placing the tiles into the grid. So these hexagons represent connected in a couple of ways: obviously, they connect to each other, but it's also a connection to my childhood. And that one lonely hex up on the right is being connected to the rest by the Priceless butterfly. His flight path is doodled, loosely based on the Priceless swirl stamp (another connection!).

Beautiful card. Love the sparkle and all the connected pieces. Your description of the game is vaguely familiar. Have to think about it ... Thanks for sharing your sweet creation. Into my favs.

I love your story of childhood, and the description of the connection you envision on this beautiful card. I especially like the sentiment--perfect for this challenge. Lovely card!

Great job with all the connections-even to your childhood! We had a tile game with a plastic board with holes and the different shaped tiles had pegs that fit into the holes with templates you could follow to form pictures. Love the pretty hexagons with the doodling and your beautiful sparkly trail for the butterfly looks great too. Thanks for playing along in my challenge!

That butterfly is SO pretty and so are your doodle lines! Isn't it fun to re-connect to our past sometimes? And to think you created this card just by going back in time.....
