Collage Mosaic Madness - Version Two

Ok! enough I hear you cry. This is the last one for the time being using Mosaic Madness, and this card like the last one came about as I had lots of scraps sitting on my desk and just had a flash of inspiration on how to use them (it doesn't happen often - my lovely friend Debby will testify to that and was amazed I produced 3 cards on the same day, to be honest I was pretty amazed myself lol).

Again I've used the fab Modern Mosaic embossing folder for interest in the background, then some more layering up of elements, this time including the flag shape from Hearts a Flutter, Little Leaves Sizzlit and the small daisy shape die from Blossom Party Originals...finished off with a lovely Antique Brad and some Linen Thread.

I hope you like it and have been inspired to create your own cards using this lovely set.

More Mosaic Madness

You've probably worked out by now that not only am I loving Mosaic Madness, I'm also loving the fabulous new in colours this year. All 5 of them are winners as far as I'm concerned, I think they are all quite subtle, my favourite colour family :-)

Here I've used the matching embossing folder to add some interest in the background and then layered up some of the punched shapes, slightly overlapping and raising some (though you can't see that too well!). Again I've teamed them with Papillon Potpourri...another well loved set which I don't think I'll ever tire of. This looks much more dimensional IRL but I'm sure you get the idea.

Enjoy your day.
Thanks so much for stopping by.

Collage Mosaic Madness - Version One

Another post (shock ;-)) and another card using Mosaic Madness to create a bit of a collage effect. This time I've teamed it up with some of the scallop punches, Papillon Potpourri - I love the stamped image of this particular butterfly as it's so crisp it really looks like DSP, although it's not. There's also a leafy image which is from the Summer Silhouttes set and I've finished it off with the scallop embossing along the bottom.

The gorgeous pink colour is one of the beautiful new in colours and is called Strawberry Slush. I'm not normally a pinks girl, but this one is so lovely I may be converted - just a little :-)

Thanks for taking a look.

Mosaic Madness

How lovely is it to finally have a Summer at last!

Here's a card which was inspired by a layout I found on Pinterest. I've used the new Mosaic Madness set, which can be purchased as a bundle, giving you a discount of 15%. I will admit I wasn't sure quite what I was going to do with this set to begin with, and sat looking at the punch and stamp set for quite some time before I finally got started! I now love this set and I think it will be a favourite for some time to come :-)
I hope you like it and if I get myself organised with my photo uploading you'll be seeing some more of this set very soon.
Enjoy the sunshine.
Thanks for stopping by.
