* Gecko Galz: Springtime

Steve Haziran 25, 2022

Hello!

Today is my DT day at Gecko Galz.

Gecko Galz is running daily challenges with fabulous prizes to help you colour your world and to hopefully take your mind off the worrying times we are living through at present.
You can find the daily challenges

Our customer challenge theme this month is Once Upon A Springtime, so I made some springtime projects.

Set of spring tags:

I created some backgrounds using PaperArtsy Infusions in Emerald Isle and a stencil. The tags were die cut and the edges inked with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I added some twine ribbon to the bottom section of the tag and fussy cut some images, from the beautiful Botanical Blends collage set. The lovely images are popped on foam dots for dimension with a piece of natural cheesecloth behind. Words were chosen from the Charming Words collage set and attached to the ribbon. The tags were finished with a twine fastening and a bow.

The next two tags were created the same way, but this time the backgrounds are brayered Distress Oxides.

I also created a spring time card. The lovely image is from the Garden Children collage set and the paper is from the Linen Closet paper pack.

I teamed these with kraft paper die borders and added a hessian ribbon with some lace flower trim. The die cut flowers and foliage are Tim Holtz (Funky Florals 2) die cuts, coloured with distress inks.

And finally this is a collaged canvas that I made for my Customer Challenge inspiration post. Details of this can be found here:
