Mosh Posh Blog Hop - Week 2!


One of my absolute favorite things about scrapbooking is the patterned paper. There are so many colors, textures and designs! Sometimes I run across a collection that I just adore so much that I really want to showcase the cohesive look of the entire line of papers. This is exactly why I created this background with the squares on this layout.

I just love the texture that is adds to this layout. Last week I was obsessed with the circles, now it's the squares. I am a very geometrical scrapper. :)

Plus, this is a GREAT way to use up some of those scraps that you have been hanging on to. Don't lie, I know you have them!


Last week, I had a RAK for the brightly colored flowers and buttons. Our winner is... lifeheARTist. Maddux drew the #27 out of his Diego hat, and LifeheARTist is #27! Email me at EsteeLynn(at)gmail.com and I will get that out to you!!! This week, I chose more neutral tones for the RAK. There are lots of neutral-ish Primas and 2 packages of October Afternoon rub-ons in brown. And what do you have to do to win? Just leave a comment here!!!

You have until Monday, June 1st at 11:59PM to leave a comment for this RAK. I will announce the winner on Tuesday, June 2nd. Have a great Wednesday!!!

I love the look of a bunch of different papers in squares on a layout... I went back and looked earlier.... I have done 6 different layouts in the past couple of months that I did that on LOL

It makes me feel all cozy I guess because it makes me think of a quilt!
