Good afternoon to all my bloggie friends, hope you are all well!! Well as promised yesterday, today I am posting a card that I made during my craftin marathon yesterday!! I call it the Mosaic Card because every little square has a different color or patterned paper in it. I created the black frame with the little squares on my Gypsy. The squares are all 1" x 1" and the total outside dimension of the frame is about 6" high by 5 1/2" wide. This is great when you can't decide what paper to use or even to just use up all those little scraps we all have laying around!! I have a large photo keeper for all my large scraps and two small photo keepers that hold real small scraps and unused shapes. I hate to throw any of the leftover papers out, hence my husband thinks I'm crazy!! I put Mono adhesive on the back of the frame and just attached all the little squares to it, then I stamped the little heart, spiral and star with coordinating ink colors. (the red, yellow and blue squares) Anyway I hope you enjoy!!
I submitted this card for the Getting Cricky DT Call, please wish me luck!! Also in the "Made it Myself Mondays Challenge" Until next time Happy Craftin!!

You found me to follow (Thanks) and so now I found you to follow. I have to tell you something so funny. I saw this card you did with the squares on one of the challenges but couldn't remember where. Now I know. I love this idea for all the little scraps. Definitely need to figure this out on my Gypsy.
What a great card idea! And a cool way to highlight some of those gorgeous (but busy!) decorative papers. I love this. Thanks for stopping by my blog... good luck with the DT!
