If You missed checking out one of the blogs or want to go through them again here is the rotation

Here is the Blog Hop Rotation

My first project is a Postcard!


Gecko Galz Products Used:

Paris Postcard- Heart and Soul Digital Stamp
Woman - from Pretty Girls Sheet
Moonface - Papermoon Set
Sparkly Gem - April Colors Sheet
Paper - Mayflower Paper Set

I created this postcard digitally. The Gecko Galz designs work wonderfully for digital art pieces. If you want to create this with paper and scissors. Resize and print out the listed images, cut and paste.

My second project is a card!


Gecko Galz Products Used:

Paper - Steampunk (picture it)
Digital stamp - F is for Fashion
Sentiment - digital stamp - In Other Words

Using photoshop elements, the digital stamp was placed on the background paper. It was then resized and printed out. The "pretty girl" and sentiment were resized to fit on a card. The card is embellished with black tulle, lace, pearls and three paper flowers.

My third project is an ATC!



Gecko Galz Products Used:

Paper - Solarium (Grand Estate)
Sentiment - In Other Words (digital stamp)

The paper was resized to fit on an ATC (3.5x2.5). The "pretty girls" were cut out and adhered to the base. I did add a little color to their apparel with markers and chalks. The sentiment is also chalked. The ATC is embellished with a feather, a paper rose and pearls.

I hope you have enjoyed the Gecko Galz 2014 Hop!

♥ Wendy
