Second post of the day…
Welcome back for another round of inspiration from the Stamp Review Crew! This week we are featuring Mosaic Madness. I am #7 on the hop. You may have just left stop #6: my good friend, the incredibly talented Mike Funke. If so, you are in the right spot.
I decided to create a quick and easy holiday card using this set, and I am thrilled with how it turned out. Doesn’t it truly “sparkle”? I hope you enjoy today’s hop!
The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
This finished card measures 5-1/2″ wide by 4-1/4″ long.
- Trio! Three identical Mosaics were inked in Lost Lagoon and stamped onto Whisper White card stock. In the blink of an eye, they were punched out using the Mosaic Punch. They were “popped” up on Stampin’ Dimensionals against two banners created from All Is Calm Specialty Designer Paper and Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper. Of course, Rhinestones seemed to be the perfect embellishment.
- Blinded by the light! Nothing says dazzling like Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper. The image panel was originally straight…but I decided to put it at a slant to really accentuate the dazzle!
- Sparkle! With a card with “sparkle” as its theme, how could I not use the “Sparkle” sentiment from Good Greetings. After a few Lost Lagoon speckles, courtesy of Gorgeous Grunge, and a single Rhinestone accent, the end result is a confection of sparkly delight!
I hope you enjoyed this quick and easy card. You all know how tough it is for me to do something quick, so I hope you like the result. If you would like to see another card made with this set, here is one from the archives:
Once again, it is quick and easy! Details about this card can be found HERE.
And finally, before you visit the uber-talented Beth Beard, #8 on our list, won’t you let me know which version of this card you like…Angled
or Straight.

Wonderful creations! I love the color combo of your “sparkle” card, which is indeed very festive 🙂 I think I like the straight version better myself. At least today, lol!
Lovely creation…very simple & easy to reproduce! And let’s see….straight or angled? Not sure–I like them both!
Pretty & sparkly! Love the color. I prefer the angled version.
Love the contemporary look of this card! The color palette is exquisite!
What a gorgeous color palette…perfect for this year’s holiday trends. YOu are so clever!
It’s gorgeous and I prefer the straight because I am governed by my Virgoisms : )
Love both cards. I will be casing this card because it is so pretty. I also love the idea changing the She to he. Thanks for the wonderful ideas. I like the Angled version.

Ann. Beautiful card I never like the gorgeous grunge set but recently have seen such pretty cards I may have to try using it. Thanks for sharing!!
Gorgeous card for sure! I love the colors and the embellishments. I like the angle one a little more maybe but not much! lol
I liked the one from the archives too 🙂
Gorgeous card, and it looks like I’m outnumbered so far but I’m a straight-up kind of a girl.
I would vote for the angled card.
Definitely at an angle 🙂 And definitely a CASE coming on here 🙂 Thanks for the terrific design!
Those colors are gorgeous together! And I noticed on your archive card, you changed the saying from “she” to “he” – great idea!
Wow! This definitely says “merry & bright”, Ann. I love these colors for Christmas and I think I like the Angled version.
Wow, this is so shimmery and pretty! I have to definitely CASE this!

This card does sparkle, Ann! I absolutely love it — the colors, the shimmer, the embellishing. It is gorgeous!
