Mosaic Moments Scrapbooking with 6×6 Printed Pads
Those Fabulous 6×6 Printed Paper Pads! A couple of years ago I purchased a pad of 6×6 printed paper. I bought it because I loved the paper collection but I didn't feel like the 12×12 collection was in my budget (at 4 times the cost.) After I used the 6×6 sheets for the first time I was HOOKED! "It's …
Mosaic Moments Scrapbooking – SAVE THE DATE!
SAVE THE DATE! One thing I have learned, via scrapbooking, is how quickly I can forget what year a photo was taken. That is why I love the Mosaic Moments Date CornerStones. On the 8×8 page below I used a white Four Square CornerStone and customized the color using a green felt tip marker. There are a couple of …
Mosaic Moments Scrapbooking – Inside-out pages
There isn't a lot of space on an 8×8 page; so, using multiple large photos isn't really an option. One of the techniques I like to use on 8×8 Mosaic Moments pages is embedding.

Mosaic Moments Scrapbooking – Stray Photos
Stray Photos I have bins filled with "stray" photos. Some were duplicates, some were left overs – all of them have been sitting in bins way too long.

So, we took a drive along the coastline …

Mosaic Moments Scrapbooking – Country Style
Add a little "comfort" to your pages! Jaime, a good friend, sent me some photos of her family at a petting zoo in Utah. The photos reminded me of county fairs. When I lived in the west I loved to go to the county fair and look at the displays of home made pies, prize pigs, and hand made quilts. …

Mosaic Moments Scrapbooking – Think Inside the Grid
Think Inside the Grid! You love the look of Photo Mosaics and Mosaic Moments Pages – the clean lines, the organization… but, sometimes you want to "roughen" things up a bit! It's okay – you don't have to give up one, to do the other. Want to try a "messy" technique – but you still want to work on a …
