Friendship Mosaic

Good morning, friends and stampers!  I am happy to report that my internet provider rep spent most yesterday with us, but we are finally up and running all the time instead of just hit and miss.  

So it's time to post another card for you.  This card is called a mosaic card and was inspired by Lois Bak's cards and photos at Speedy TV's Inspiration Challenge.  My card focused on the Mondrian-like pattern and her sailboat card with the more subtle colors.  I have to say I am more of a rose-pink nail polish girl, but I loved the patterns in the paper and needed a more masculine card.  I seem to be drawn to card designs that remind me of quilts or cards that create an overall design.  

Hope you like it and thanks for stopping by today.  

I hope to enter this card in:  
There She Goes --anything goes
The Shabby Tea Room --anything goes 
Through the Craft Room Door --anything goes 
Pause, Dream, Enjoy --anything goes

A great way to use up scraps. I do something similar for a quilt card to use as a get well card. Looking forward to seeing you soon.

Terrific card, Kren! I love mosaic cards. There's so many options available with designer papers and even stamped images or digis.
BTW, I was talking to one of the gals at The Outlawz and told her you had forgotten how to sign in. She said you just use your e-mail address and password. If you've forgotten what password you set up, there's a place for you to ask to have it sent to you via e-mail and then you can change it or keep, whichever you like. Hope to see you over there again. :-D

Hi, Kren! What an amazing afternoon, browsing your blog and seeing so many wonderful techniques and a variety of styles! It would be fun stamping with you in person! It has been far too long since I made a mosaic card, and now you have inspired me. I see you live in central Florida, so do I. I'll be emailing you privately, Kren. Wonderful card share, and pretty colors! hugs, de
