Happy Anniversary To A Very Sweet Couple

 This month's Progressive Freebie image at The Outlawz is a background stamp.  I printed it out twice and fussy cut three of the flowers in one of them and raised them up using mount tape:

Gecko Galz September Challenges

I am going to have to go with one post for all the Gecko Galz challenges again as I'm still having to limit my computer time.  I am hopeful that by the end of October that will change but only time will tell.  I'd also like to get back to the monthly theme challenge as I missed that one again this month.

All digital papers, images and sentiments are by Gecko Galz.  Coloring is with copic markers and watercolor pencils.

Enjoy the little things

I recently added a couple of sets from Beccy's Place to my collection.  Both sets included digital papers and used two papers from one of the sets for this card:


I have used two digital papers from Beccy's Place.  The image and sentiment are also from Beccy's Place.  I added some die-cut buttons in the colors from the paper and image.

This is the card that I chose to CASE.  I followed the original sketch and still used papers, image and sentiment from Beccy's Place.  However, I changed which of each I used.  I also changed the faux buttons from star shaped to standard button shape.

Happy Christmas

It is the midway point of the September Challenge at 12 Months of Christmas and time for some more inspiration



I have used a digital paper from Décosse's Dynamite Doodles.  The images are all from Bird's Cards and the sentiment is an acrylic stamp (not sure of brand/source).

Go Big or Go Gnome

It is time for a new Anything Goes Challenge at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends.  For this challenge, we are sponsored by Pattie's Creations.

 


 I was inspired by Pattie's logo to replicate the image I chose in a similar fashion!  The image is from Pattie's Creations and is called Twinkle The Gnome.


I also used a digital paper from PixelScrapper.  The sentiment is from Beccy's Place.  Coloring is with copic markers.  I added some ephemera.
