How about a mosaic

Good morning again. It's time for a new challenge at Lasting Memories, and time to choose a winner for my blog candy.

I know I say it a lot, but Karen comes up with some great challenges. They are truly challenging for me. This week's challenge is to create a mosaic layout. Now, I have done a mosaic before, and I think it turned out pretty well. But it's not something that I am comfortable doing. I wanted to try a mosiac with irregular sizes and shapes, but the intimidation won on that one. I did make the pieces a just little irregular, but they are all squares or rectangles. And I didn't even use a sketch. I am so on an Echo Park kick. This is the Springtime collection.



Check out how the rest of the design team created mosaics on their pages. They are so talented. I hope you will give it a try.

Oh, and it time to choose a winner of the Celebrate with Flourish cartridge. I used Random.org to chose someone.

Reduce, Re-Use, Recycle and Blog Candy Winner

Challenge #26 at Lasting Memories is a Green one.... The challenge is to recycle your scraps, or other items. I know I have a ton of scraps - two large drawers full. I think this is a challenge I should do myself at least a couple of times a month. How many scraps do you have?

We have a sponsor for this week's challenge too!! Heart Song Designs makes hand drawn digital stamp images. They are adorable. Check them out.
For this layout, all of the paper and cardstock I used (except for the 12 x 12 background paper) were from my scrap drawers.



The image of the flowers and the bee is from Heart Song Designs. I love how versatile these images are, and they are just so darn cute. The 2 round embellishments came from Tessa at Precocious Paper.

And now for the blog candy winner. I really enjoyed looking at everyone's layouts this week. There was such a huge variety of pages. They were all wonderful. I used random.org to choose the winner that posted a comment on my blog post and played along with LM. The winner is Brenda!! Contact me at ssedlak815@gmail.com with your address and I will get your package out to you. Congratulations.

I hope you will reduce, re-use and recycle this week and join us at Lasting Memories.
