Flickr Favorites


First of all, thanks so much for all the themed quote mosaics from last week. It was so fab to see what you all came up with and all of them were awesome. I also feel wiser now. :)
I had a very hard time choosing a favorite one. So I cheated and chose two...
One is a quote I need to frame, the other one made me laugh out loud! :)

I typed 'Japanese paper' as a search tag in Flickr this week. I love paper. I wish I had more time to play with it. The colors and patterns on Japanese paper are divine. It makes me happy just looking at the pictures...

If you like to play this week, make your mosaic and add a link to your blogpost (NOT your blog please) or Flickr in Mister Linky (click on the button below and fill in your name with the link to your blogpost or Flickr picture)...

I cheated and used also a nice quote again !
mmmmm, nice paper pictures Mitsy! I'm a paper addict. :)
Love the third picture the best!
I'm paper addict too!!
This paper is rvery pretty!!
I love paper too. Every time I go to a new country, I buy notebooks... yeah, regular notebooks but usually a bit different from the ones we are used to.
I was going to ask you the other day if you still wanted to get rid of some of those paper samples you had... wall paper. I feel like making boxes... maybe we can get together and make boxes! just for fun...
These papers reminds me patchwork textiles. I have never seen these type of papers... Wow. When I was in Japan I wondered all kinds of crafts and arts...and these papers... wow....
they are soooo nice. Thanks you so much.
I love the dainty details - and I'm so sorry that missed out on the quote week. How typical! Back now and will happily be checking out everyone's favourites as soon as I get in from work x
The colors and patterns are fantastic! I can't find Japanese paper here in Greece :( but I found this site where you can print Japanese paper patterns.It's a site for paper lovers: http://cp.c-ij.com/en/contents/2004/list_15_1.htm....
I love Japanese paper and patterns, too. And this is one lovely looking mosaic.
Their tiny little patterns are always so perfect!

Hi Kim!! :o) Nice to see you here.
I was laughing too when I irst saw that quote - it was a lovely theme that ya' came up with!!!
As for Japanese papers, it is so inspiring! My mother use to have a japanese friend who taught us many nice crafts with it, I wish I could practice it more (not for my little to no patient ) but my sister is working with it and making great stuff!
Your mosaice is just great.. we are in love with any kinds of pattern and paper as well.. colours, patterns and structures they have!
OHHH Thank you for chosing my quote from last week. I do love it so much so I'm glad others do too:) Im so happy I found this little challenge to do each week.

You're preaching to the choir, Mitsy. I love paper too, I would be surrounded by it if I could afford it. Years ago I used to indulge my love of paper by having many kinds of correspondence. But now that letters just aren't written I don't have the stuff anymore. Now that I'm swapping on swapbot I may just collect stationary etc again. :o)
pretty papers!
Beautiful papers.
paper is my life! i ALWAYS stare at it.
