Mono Mosaic

Mono Mosaic is a technique from the Technique Junkies newsletter.  It has very detailed directions for a very specific size and style.  however, since it is never the size I want to make, I end up improvising, and that would be all right if I could cut a square.  I can't cut a square, as anyone in my inchie group will tell you.  I can't cut a straight line, even with my special fiskars paper cutter.  However, I like this technique too much to leave it alone.
This technique also calls for geometric stamps, which I don't have.  I just improvised with what I did have, namely the snail&co set from a•muse studio.  I was able to create 4 different fills to cut into blocks for the technique, which is all I really needed.  This card fulfills the color challenge over at Stamped Blessings, and these other challenges:
