Tag Tuesday - Mosaic

Definitely the most challenging challenge to date on the Tag Tuesday blog.
 

I don't even know whether I like this or not... but the sheer challenge of trying this technique just drove me.
I cut all the pieces out by hand. I had a template which I glued to the back of the stamped Peacock image and cut it out that way. Then I glued the pieces down and marked between the lines.

  1. I love your peacock background Jacqueline and the shades are beautiful! YOu have a lot of patience to cut all those pieces out like that! Was that done by hand or with a punch of some sort? It's beautiful! Not an easy challenge!

  4. Although this DOES look like something you wouldn't ordinarily do, I think you nailed the challenge with this mosaic. It looks like wall tile. And I know you are a wizard at cutting things out, but this is astounding!
