This week, we're taking another look at the Five Square Blocking Set. This set is unique in that it allows you to place multiple objects, in different shapes, side-by-side without the grid gaps. It's currently the only die in the entire Mosaic Moments collection that allows you to do this. And, we have some new, creative ways to show it off. Take a look ...
When you include beautiful papers, family photos, and the 5 Square Blocking Set, you can turn a layout into a beautiful gift box. The triangles and diamonds in the center resemble an abstract bow on a package, don't they? It's just so beautiful.
SnapFixTip: When it rains on your parade, or your photos really are snapshots and not beautiful works of art, cutting them into smaller pieces, like in the layout above, really makes them sparkle. It's a bit of Mosaic Magic we love repeating again and again. Somehow, with the right cut, they just get better -- without special
computer software.

On this layout, Jodi used the Five Square Blocking Set to fit in plenty of photos, and then to create a focal point in the center of her layout. She added a few other dies to turn it into an ornament. Clever!
SnapFix Tip: Combine die sets for maximum results. Feel free to layer, mix-and-match, and use dies differently from what they were intended. For instance, here, Jodi used the inside of the circle and one of the 2x2 dies all on their own and off the grid. The results are stunning. So, take a second look at your border dies and
alphabet dies ... these both have elements that can be used on their own off the grid.
