The MMTPT challenge was to use a mosaic. Eons ago, I made my own mosaic out of scraps of rubber, and I even remembered where it was!! So I used that as my bg.
These are more interesting colors than they first seemed. As I worked on this card, they grew on me.
This will go to someone who needs some cheer. I think it's cheerful, don't you?

Oh you clever girl with that background. I knew there was some reason that I had saved a pile of rubber scraps and now you've reminded me - if only I can find them. I love the birds against that background. And the colors sure do look lovely.

Those birds are just tweet. I have a collection of rubber on my desk waiting to make into a mosaic stamp . I do know where they are - but since you brought this technique along to the party this week I don't feel that I need to!!
I hope to get a card to your mother in the post tomorrow. Things just went AWOL here last week.

Anne, I LOVE the mosaic bg you created - and I'm impressed that you knew RIGHT where it was - yes, you get lots of points for that as far as I'm concerned! It's so unique and your cute little birds are smiling, thanks to the fab job you did drawing eyes!!
