Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge #153

I really liked Mary Fish's Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge Mojo153 this week.  Those little boxes really appealed to my sense of order.  But, being a chronic procrastinator the challenge for me once I decided to try this out was to find a stamp set that fit the bill, and then decide on colours and of course background.  Usually that's not hard with Stampin' Up, but for some reason, whether my MOJO just wasn't working or what, it took me all week to come up with my version. 

Hope you enjoy it.
