Using Inspiration
Here’s an example of how Katie has used Pinterest to inspire her own creative projects. This pin from Chari of Persnickety Prints gave her an idea for using soft pastel colors to put together this collage using Flickr photos. Then she used the mosaic image on her layout .
Katie says, “Just seeing the image that Chari pinned gave me the creative nudge to go and put together a collage of my own. I have always loved using mosaics and collages on a scrapbook layout. Just treat them like a regular photo and you can create a page in just a few minutes. So easy and fun!”
Mosaic by Katie Nelson | Supplies: Paper: Katie Nelson ; Embellishments: One Little Bird; Photo Credits available here. Mosaic: created with fd’s Flickr Toys.
