Cherish Yesterday

This is the last of the monthly images challenges at Gecko Galz that I hadn't finished.  I also haven't even started the monthly theme challenge but I think I'm running out of time for that one.  We'll see what happens over the next few days and if I can find some time to create something.

Gecko Galz Steampunk Image - February Challenge
http://geckogalzscrapbooking.blogspot.com/p/gecko-galz-monthly-steampunk-challenge.html

I have used a digital paper, image and sentiment (cut into two) from Gecko Galz.  I also die-cut some embellishments using a die from Marianne Design.

Happiness Truth Love

 I have gone with non-traditional valentines/love colors for this card - matched the paper instead.

CRAFT Challenge - Love
https://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com/2023/02/challenge-667-love-valentine.html

I have used a digital paper from Trimgym.  The image is from All Dressed Up.  Coloring is with copic markers and Wink of Stella.  I also added some die-cut flowers and added Nuvo Drops to all the flower centres.


Bunny Balloon

The optional twist for the February Challenge at Beccy's Place is a Toss A Coin.  I was a bit apprehensive on a couple of the options but I would have dealt with it if I had got the worst option for me.


This was the grid for the coin toss:


I threw Tails then Heads then Tails then Heads then Tails.  I would have preferred Heads on the first toss but I doodled some hearts on the balloon to make it work.

Let It Snow

I had trouble sleeping last night so I'm up earlier than usual.  I live quite close to the neighbors so I try not to make too much noise if I'm up early so I'm going to try and get the rest of the projects that I didn't post last night uploaded.  I only have embellishing to do on another couple so I'll work on those too while I need to be relatively quiet.

My Cat

 I was inspired by my daughter's previous cat for the coloring of this image although I think I might have the ginger and black around the wrong way.

Love

 I'm on a bit of a roll with getting things uploaded.  I'm going to try and get at least one more done after this which will make me feel like I've accomplished something today - it has been one of those days that I don't feel like I have done anything
