My Wedding Inspired Mosaic Art piece.

Holy smokes it's been a year since I last posted. I haven't really done all that much either LOL!
Here are some more Wedding Layouts I have done for my friend's album. I am finally finished it and remembered to take pictures of them all.
This frist layout started as an idea in my head. This is my favorite couple picture of Jody and Gord. When I first saw it, I knew I wanted to do a mosaic of sort around it. It it me a loooong time to do. First off, I sketched out a couple of ideas on paper and started to collect the mosaic pieces. I purchased them all at Michael's. Since they were quite expensive ($5.99) I used a 40% off weekly coupon to buy most of them, so it took a few months to get them all. I think I used 10 packs.

I am entering this LO in the following challenges:
Totally Gorjuss-Holiday Challenge- Include a Sunny Scene
Creatalicious Challenges- Anything Goes

Ingredients:
Crystal Stickers Mosaics by Mark Richards in Many colours
Background paper- Cloud 9 Designs ( I think I've had this paper in my stash for 10 years)
CTMH Pacifica CS.
Stickles to fill in some spaces between mosaic pieces.

Hope you'll stop by again to see more wedding layouts.....
Happy Scrappin!
