Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits are a great way to add interest to your Scrapbook Layouts. These particular page kits that I purchased from Tami Potter of Wish in the Wind have worked great for my Fireworks photos - particularly the ones that don't always turn out perfect. You know those photos where only part of the photo is in focus, or only part of the photo really captured what you wanted.
A Video on how to do Photo Mosaics is at the bottom of this page.
With Tami's Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits, I was able to very quickly cut my photos (yes, these are really cut into one inch squares) and lay out the best parts into a great layout that has all the pieces pretty straight and even.
The Mosaic process for cutting photos became popular a number of years ago and I tried it, but it was very difficult to cut and lay the photos pieces down evenly. Then there were some die-cuts that we could purchase to lay over the photos, but then they covered up some some the actual photo and they were also difficult to work with.
Tami's system for Mosaic Scrapbook Layouts and the Mosaic Page Kits that I discovered at the Scrapbook Expo in Atlanta, Ga in July 2008 has solved all of those problems.

Here are two layouts using Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits that I picked up in a Class at the CK Convention in Charlotte, NC in August 2011. I always try to take one or two of Tami Potter's classes when I can.
In this class we made some patterned paper from some of the stamps that Tami sells, and used that for some of the inset pieces around the photo mattes. To some of the solid pieces, I added stickers of the flowers at Yellowstone.
I thought the photos of the flowers I took very important as they were all growing in the midst of rock, steam and the chemicals that were coming from the steam vents, geysers, mud pots and fumeroles.
Here are a couple of Mosaic Scrapbook Layouts I did using one of Tami's Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits the I picked up at the July 08 Expo.
For the page on the left, I was able to use the brochure from the Atlanta Aquarium and cut it in the mosaic tiles like I learned at the Expo. I brought a couple of extra with me in case I made a mistake, but the system was so easy, I didn't need them. I used another part of the brochure and cut it on the curve using my craft knife for the right hand page.
The two embellishments of the sea horse and the crab (called corner stones) came with the Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekit, as did all the pieces and background cardstock already pre-cut. I just laid the pieces down on the cardstock to match the picture on the outside of the package. Except for trimming my photos and I didn't even need scissors to put the basic kit together.
Click here to visit Snapncrop.com (Wish in the Wind, LLC) to purchase Tammy's layouts and products.
For these particular Mosaic Scrapbook Layouts, I used only Tami's Grid Paper in a bright yellow. The Grid Paper is the key to this system and it comes in many different colors and sizes.
Each of my floral photos from the yard this spring were cut into the one inch squares using Tami's Mosaic Grid System with a cutting surface, temporary adhesive, a metal ruler and craft knife. Each square was then aligned onto the Grid Paper.
If you look carefully at this Mosaic Scrapbook Layout, however, you will see that there are three small photos on each page that were left without cutting and these have each been arranged into a pattern of uncut photos.
Here are two layouts from a Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekit called Adventure. All the pieces that you see here came with the kit. The Corner stone of the compass rose was included in the Mosaic Page Kit, as were the journaling cut outs and the green and white gingham ribbon.
There is also a journaling block included that says "Happiness is finding the Road Less Traveled." A sentiment that can be used for many occasions or not used at all. You can always turn the sentiment on the back and write your own, rubber stamp it, or use it for a photo or embellishment matte.
This next Mosaic Page Kit, called Mother Nature, has the greens and lavenders on a white background. Included in the Mosaic Page Kit were the corner stones of the rabbit and a bird on a branch in dark brown.
In the next 2 graphic images, I have used this Mother Nature kit for some more floral photos so you can see how it looks when finished either with whole photos, mosaic cut photos, or a combination of both.
This is the same Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekit, Mother Nature, as shown above, but with the photos cut and mounted on the page kit.
While I kept the photos of the Blue Hydrangea intact, I did cut around the top of the flowers to allow the color of the matte to be seen.
This next one of the Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits is called Royal Palms. This would be perfect for any beach layout or vacation layout to an island resort area.
Here are two more great layouts from Tami Potter's Mosaic Moments collection that make great beach or summer-time layouts. With the die cut phrases that say "Barefooten" and "Sand and Sun" and the four yellow sun shaped cornerstones, these color blocked layouts depict fun even before the photos go on.
Here are some completed page kits from the set called "Daisy'd". The kit with out photos is shown above and was done shortly after I received it. I thought my photos of my new Lemon & Lime trees went nicely with the colors in the papers, so completing the layouts took only about 5 miniutes.
This Mosaic Scrapbook Page kit is called Daisy Love. This one uses the scalloped photo mats, two yellow Daisy shaped Die Cuts stripes with orange brads, one orange daisy shaped cornerstone and beautifully matched blue gingham ribbon.
This Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits is called Song to Sing and features a Yellow Cornerstone with a bird on a branch, some pretty orange, green and yellow ribbon to match the cardstock colors, and watering can charm and a journaling box that says "I wish for you a song to sing and a smile to share."
This Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekit is called Slumber Party. It uses the 5 corner stones on the left, a journaling tag, a year date (mine was 2008) and a piece of really pretty pink, orange and yellow ribbon to use on the tag.
The journaling says "Slumber parties, aren't they great? Eat popcorn and stay up late. Play a game of truth or dare, Better hide your underwear!" What a great rhyme for a slumber party layout, but if you are past the age of slumber parties, what a beautiful Mosaic Page Kit layout for anything spring or girlish.
This next of the Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits is titled Fall uses 3 Leaf cornerstones, F A L L die cut letters cut from the 1 inch squares, pretty ribbon and a Journaling Block that says: Happiness is... the breathtaking colors of a brisk autumn day."
This would make a great kit for photos of the trees turning their leaves in the vibrant colors. The subtle card stock used here will not interfere with the colors in your photos.
These three Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits were from a class I took at the CK Convention in Charlotte, NC in August 2011 and focused on using patterned paper for some of the elements on the pages.
I used some photos of the Old Faithful Inn on the first of these layouts. If you look closely, the first one has space for 4 photos with the patterned paper around the outside, the next has room for 5 photos in a sort of pinwheel design, the third has room for 6 photos in a sort of 3-column layout with patterned papers filling in the blank spaces.
This next one of the Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits is titled Snowy Day with 3 snowflake corner stones in 2 different colors and a forth corner stone showing a snowman.
I have added my own color behind the cut out pieces in the snowman with black card stock behind the eyes and smile, orange card stock for the carrot nose, and red and green behind the holly in his hat.
I never would have thought of using light green with snow photos, but it's really a perfect set of colors for any winter day photos.
This next one of the Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits is titled Winter Fun and uses the same Snowman corner, and the 3 snowflake corner stones but backed by a darker blue. Additionally there are 2 snowflake die cut strips, blue and silver ribbon and a journaling tag.
The journaling tag says: "His nose is orange, his hat is new, His cane is old, but it will do. He'll be there throughout the day, Until the sun melts him away.
What a great Mosaic Page Kit layout to use for those first snow days and the fun of making a snowman!
This next one of the Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits is called Christmas Goodies comes with 3 Die Cut Gingerbread Men used with red and white one inch squares to make a top border. This kit also comes with a scalloped and die cut photo matte, Red & White candy striped ribbon and a Gingerbread Man charm.
What a great layout to use for photos of cooking up some Christmas cookies - Gingerbread Men, of course - or making one of those wonderful Holiday Gingerbread Houses.
This next one of the Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits I am calling Noel comes with the die cut letters spelling out NOEL along with Cornerstone of a Christmas candle that form to make a border on the side of the page.
Other additions to the page kit are the white scalloped photo matte, the red and green Christmas ribbon and the Journaling Tag that says: "The tree is trimmed, the candles glow, the wreath is on the door. We count our blessings one by one, And who could ask for more?
Last but not least in the review of Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits is the 2009 New Years Eve layout of various fireworks shots. Some of these photos have been cut into mosaics and some have not. The choice is yours.
I hope you have enjoyed looking at these Mosaic Scrapbook Pagekits as much as I enjoyed putting them together and using them. Tami Potter's Mosaic Grid System is great and very easy to use with a lot of pre-made kits and Grid Paper options for colors and sizes. I can tell you first hand that her system is very easy to learn and use.
As you can see, these page kits can be used for any seasonal photos from New Year, through Spring and Summer, on to Fall and into the Holidays.
This layout below is one I did years ago of my grandfather. All the other layouts on this web page were done using Tami Potters Mosaic Grid System in less time than it took to complete this one page layout.
Check out this video for a quick review of how to do these photo mosaics from Tami herself. This really is as easy as it looks.

The Village School, which caters for 270 students between the ages of three and 19, is in the final stages of joining with Woodfield School to form a multi-academy trust (MAT).
But the move remains in choppy waters after the school confirmed an investigation is currently underway at Woodfield into concerns raised by a whistleblower.
This follows an Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) investigation into Woodfield, following alleged financial irregularities highlighted by the Brent National Education Union. The ESFA report is yet to be published. Plans to “academise” the school were approved by the Department for Education in May, despite several strikes by teachers and protests by placard-bearing parents and NEU members.
The school, rated “outstanding” by Ofsted, is a cherished part of the Kingsbury community and protesters had been fighting for it to remain a council asset.
Kay Charles, executive headteacher of both The Village and Woodfield, told the Times that the provisional date of February 1 remains in place for the academy conversion, and confirmed an independent reviewer has been appointed to investigate. The school would not be drawn on the nature of the investigation in order to ensure a “fair, objective and transparent process”.
Cllr Jumbo Chan, who has campaigned against the proposal from the start, said: “It is worrying that investigations into Woodfield School are taking place. Nevertheless, regardless of the matters currently being raised, the decision to academise was misguided, unnecessary and hugely disappointing.
“The decision was overwhelmingly opposed by parents, campaigners, and the school’s teachers and support staff, who, on the evening when the governing body made their ill-judged decision, were shut out of their own school by hired private security, and left to face the freezing cold as they tried to defend their own school.

Tradition here means the rich, sweet smell of dried tobacco. It means cold, dusty air and bales upon bales of coppery leaves.
But these familiar features of the tobacco auction, a ritual in this southern Maryland town since the 1930s, are going the way of country stores and empty rural roads. This week's auction, held Wednesday and Thursday, might be the last.
Three buyers, about 50 farmers and a little more than 300,000 pounds of tobacco--a paltry load compared with years past--were in Farmers Tobacco Auction Warehouses for the start of the auction.
Prices ranged from 50 cents a pound to $1.80, which had farmers shaking their heads.
"Regardless of what you feel about tobacco as a commodity, it's our culture, and it's evaporating before our eyes," said Bob Schaller, a College of Southern Maryland economics professor, who brought his son for a lesson on supply and demand.
As recently as 2001, 8 million pounds of tobacco were sold in a month. But since 2000, 83 percent of eligible farmers have taken buyouts under Maryland's share of the national tobacco lawsuit settlement.

Hasta La Raíz "Down to the Root"
apply for the 2018 sfa encuentro!
Each year, students and young people from across the country gather for a weekend of creativity, strategizing, skill-building and reflection to strengthen the SFA network. From Sept. 20-23, we'll be continuing our decade-long tradition of empowering allies from every corner of the Fair Food Nation.
At the Encuentro, SFAers build relationships with like-minded youth leaders, while interacting face-to-face with the Immokalee farmworker community in order to better understand how students and young people can work in solidarity with farmworkers in the fight for dignity, respect and justice in this country's food system.
Apply for the #2018Encuentro today! Still have more questions? Drop us a line at organize@allianceforfairfod.org!
The 2018 SFA Encuentro begins on Thursday, Sept. 20 around 4 p.m. and wraps up Sunday, Sept. 23 at 3 p.m. If you're interested in attending the Encuentro, the first step is to fill out and submit the 2018 SFA Encuentro application!
An SFA member will then reach out to you with more details and next steps. Regardless of whether you have no prior involvement in the Campaign for Fair Food or have no organizing experience, we encourage all who are interested in joining this vibrant network of students and youth to submit an application. Each Encuentro is made up of a collection of brilliant people from across the country with different and intersecting identities, bringing into this space varying levels of knowledge and experience. Given our commitment to developing a diverse leadership, we strongly encourage people of color, women, working-class, LGBTQ, gender non-conforming, and differently-abled people to submit applications.
In the past it has typically cost us $150 per person to hold a successful gathering, including costs for transportation, materials, food, travel scholarships, housing, and meeting spaces. This year's gathering will be held at a similar cost. Every participant is expected to pay for registration. However, we believe the Encuentro should be accessible to everyone. As SFA, we are committed to working with you to develop a fundraising plan to cover the cost of registration.
Registration is $75-$150 sliding scale, and we encourage you to register at the highest level that you can afford. Please also consider supporting the participation of others.
Registration fees are paid once your application has been accepted. We will contact you with more information on how to submit payment. We do have limited funds available to provide partial scholarships for this gathering.
Consider reaching out to your schools for support with registration fees. Universities and colleges typically set aside money for students for travel and registration fees for conferences such as the Encuentro.
Each year, SFA offers a limited amount of scholarships to aid Encuentro participants in funding their travel. We offer three scholarship options: full, partial and interim. While scholarship funding is not guaranteed, we're committed to supporting your grassroots fundraising efforts by providing a guide to fundraising that has proven to be a successful tool for SFAers, as well as offer direct advice and one-on-one support from SFA staff (based in Immokalee) and SFA leadership members (across the country). We strongly encourage every applicant to take an active role in generating your own full or partial scholarship as a way to help reduce the cost of travel to the Encuentro.
If you anticipate needing a travel scholarship, please submit an Encuentro Scholarship Application after you submit your 2018 SFA Encuentro Application.
A full scholarship covers the cost of travel and/or registration. This option is ideal for those individuals who otherwise would not be able to travel to Immokalee and participate in the Encuentro. This scholarship option is very limited, and applicants who identify as people of color, women, working-class, LGBTQ, gender non-conforming, and differently-abled will be prioritized.
A partial scholarship pays for up to half the amount of travel and/or half the cost of registration fee. This option is ideal for those individuals who need some extra support to cover some or half of their travel or registration cost. Additionally, this scholarship offers direct support from staff and SFA leadership to support applicant in building self-driven grassroots fundraising skills.
An interim scholarship can be offered in the form of a full or partial scholarship however, there is a shared understanding that the applicant will reimburse SFA the exact amount of the interim scholarship through a one time donation or consistent donations over an agreed upon time period (4-8 month payment plans). This option is ideal for those individuals who may need temporary financial support in order to attend the Encuentro but will be able to pay back the interim scholarship over several months.
Every year, the SFA network fully organizes the Encuentro through grassroots efforts, and it is not without a lot of hard work. There are many staggering costs that go into putting this gathering together, including providing participants with food, travel scholarships, transportation, housing, meeting spaces and materials for the entire weekend. We depend on the relationships we've built within our network, family, friends and co-workers to fund this important, dynamic weekend. Donate to SFA Encuentro via PayPal (organize@allianceforfairfood.org).
Programming begins on Thursday, Sept. 20 around 4 p.m. and wraps up Sunday, Sept. 23 at 3 p.m. Upon arrival, participants engage in interactive workshops, in-depth trainings and campaign planning exercises. These sessions will include developing strategy around the Wendy's Boycott; learning helpful practices to organize actions, facilitate meetings and give campaign-related presentations; spending time with CIW farmworker staff in discussions about campaign history and solidarity; attending an action locally with the Immokalee community; and spending significant time with allies from our network as we strategize effectively demand fair labor standards in corporate supply chains!

registration is $75-$150 sliding scale, and we encourage you to register at the highest level that you can afford. please also consider supporting the participation of others.
registration fees are paid once your application has been accepted. we will contact you with more information on how to submit payment. we do have limited funds available to provide partial scholarships for this gathering.
consider reaching out to your schools for support with registration fees. universities and colleges typically set aside money for students for travel and registration fees for conferences such as the encuentro.
each year, sfa offers a limited amount of scholarships to aid encuentro participants in funding their travel. we offer three scholarship options: full, partial and interim. while scholarship funding is not guaranteed, we're committed to supporting your grassroots fundraising efforts by providing a guide to fundraising that has proven to be a successful tool for sfaers, as well as offer direct advice and one-on-one support from sfa staff (based in immokalee) and sfa leadership members (across the country). we strongly encourage every applicant to take an active role in generating your own full or partial scholarship as a way to help reduce the cost of travel to the encuentro.
if you anticipate needing a travel scholarship, please submit an encuentro scholarship application after you submit your 2018 sfa encuentro application.
a full scholarship covers the cost of travel and/or registration. this option is ideal for those individuals who otherwise would not be able to travel to immokalee and participate in the encuentro. this scholarship option is very limited, and applicants who identify as people of color, women, working-class, lgbtq, gender non-conforming, and differently-abled will be prioritized.
a partial scholarship pays for up to half the amount of travel and/or half the cost of registration fee. this option is ideal for those individuals who need some extra support to cover some or half of their travel or registration cost. additionally, this scholarship offers direct support from staff and sfa leadership to support applicant in building self-driven grassroots fundraising skills.
an interim scholarship can be offered in the form of a full or partial scholarship however, there is a shared understanding that the applicant will reimburse sfa the exact amount of the interim scholarship through a one time donation or consistent donations over an agreed upon time period (4-8 month payment plans). this option is ideal for those individuals who may need temporary financial support in order to attend the encuentro but will be able to pay back the interim scholarship over several months.
every year, the sfa network fully organizes the encuentro through grassroots efforts, and it is not without a lot of hard work. there are many staggering costs that go into putting this gathering together, including providing participants with food, travel scholarships, transportation, housing, meeting spaces and materials for the entire weekend. we depend on the relationships we've built within our network, family, friends and co-workers to fund this important, dynamic weekend. donate to sfa encuentro via paypal (organize@allianceforfairfood.org).
programming begins on thursday, sept. 20 around 4 p.m. and wraps up sunday, sept. 23 at 3 p.m. upon arrival, participants engage in interactive workshops, in-depth trainings and campaign planning exercises. these sessions will include developing strategy around the wendy's boycott; learning helpful practices to organize actions, facilitate meetings and give campaign-related presentations; spending time with ciw farmworker staff in discussions about campaign history and solidarity; attending an action locally with the immokalee community; and spending significant time with allies from our network as we strategize effectively demand fair labor standards in corporate supply chains!

Simple math tells me that each year 2,350 people from states such as Nebraska and Wisconsin, who would otherwise have no interest in visiting Bellefonte, come to our town. If each of them only spent $10 apiece on lunch that would mean our restaurants are getting an extra $23,500 a year they wouldn’t otherwise have. That’s almost $100,000 over the four years since Diamond Tours has been doing this.
I think our town needs more people with Wiser’s initiative.

Young finance professionals have their eye on a jump to a new job within the next two years, and most intend to eventually set out on their own, according to a global survey from ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants). Called Generation Next, the survey examined the career aspirations of the younger generation in finance today.
Polling over 18,000 professionals under the age of 36, the survey found that a large majority of today’s young finance professionals intend to start their own company.
‘The next generation are aspirational, entrepreneurial and unafraid of going solo,’ said Helen Brand OBE, chief executive of ACCA.
The report also reveals that almost three quarters (70%) of respondents are looking to move jobs in the next two years, with 67% looking for a promotion.
Respondents indicated that they were more likely to stay with an employer if they offered the opportunity to learn and develop skills (88%), career progression opportunities (88%) and a competitive financial remuneration package (87%).
“Our future finance leaders are happy to seize the initiative in the labour market to achieve professional satisfaction. They know that demand for their skills is high and if their employer isn’t delivering, they won’t wait around. The result of that is employers can’t attract, nurture or retain the finance leaders of tomorrow in the same way they did the leaders of today,” added Helen Brand.
While generation next employees of both genders sought rapid career progression, female respondents were more likely to show loyalty to their current employer than their male counterparts.
“The research shows that women are more likely to be happy with their current remuneration (36%, compared to 30% of men) and to expect to stay with their current employer in their next role (42%, compared to 37% of men),” added Helen Brand.
Much has been written over the past few years on the threat of automation to jobs, but for the next generation of accountants, the rise of the robots presents an opportunity, not a risk.
“The next generation understands that automation will replace the need for human capital across a number of functions, but far from being threatened by this, they see it as an opportunity to free up time for strategic activities.

Sheikh Ismail Albatnuni was born in 1964 in Tripoli, Libya. From an early age, he sought out Islamic knowledge, memorizing the Quran, and eventually studying Maliki fiqh (a school of Islamic jurisprudence) from local scholars. However, he knew if he ever wanted to take his studies further it would mean having to leave his homeland.
"In Libya at that time, it was very difficult. Qaddafi shut down all of the Islamic universities," Sheikh Albatnuni explained. Instead, Albatnuni made the practical choice to study engineering and computer systems. However, in 1992, he left Libya to study at a branch of Al-Imam Muhammad Ibn Saud Islamic University in Ras Al Khaimah (UAE) because he was "very eager to study sharia." After graduating, he went on to teach Islamic Studies at Khalifa bin Zayed Air College.
