I love stamping,
and I am fascinated by all of the fun ways you can use stamps to
create many different looks. One of my all time favorite stamping
techniques is the “mosaic tile”. I have shared this technique a few years back, but wanted to share it again over at the CardMaker Blog. There are quite a few steps
involved with this technique, but if you have the time the results
are amazing! The process starts with the creation of your very own
custom made “mosaic tile” background stamp. Once you create your
stamp, you can use it over and over again to create mosaic tile image
panels to be used on cards, gift tags, or any other paper crafting
project you desire.
Here is another
card I created a few years back using this same technique. The stamp
image I used for the card is no longer available, but there are
PLENTY of gorgeous floral stamps available (like this fun Poppy
Patch set {hyperlink:

from Flourishes {hyperlink: http://flourishes.org/}) that
would be fun to use in combination with this technique.
Give it a try, I
think you will love this technique too!
