Project Life

I love this new way of scrapbooking! I still like making "regular" layouts, but PL is so much fun! Plus, I can use my stash to add little bits and bobs to my cards.

Create for a Cause

This month the DT at Gecko Galz are "Creating for a Cause".

I am creating for the Nature Conservancy. They help marine life, our oceans and coral reefs. Check out the link above to see what Gecko goodies I used and also to see how you can help this organization.

Project Life!!!

Oh, I am soooo excited - today I got my Project Life kit (Cinnamon) from Hobby Lobby!!!! Used my 40% off coupon, which was great for the core kit. But then I worried that maybe the album would be gone before I got back down there with another coupon, so I bought it - at full price. Then I needed the page protectors, so got those too. And my total bill was a bit high, but so worth it!!

Project Life begins July 1 - I can't wait!!

Ring bearers

Aren't they adorable?!!! The two ring bearers at my daughter's wedding on Saturday.

July 4th!

One of my very favorite holidays is the 4th of July - I love the colors, the fireworks, the fun!!

Gecko Galz has great patriotic images and so I sized the lady with the flag in Photoshop, cut her out and layered her over stamping and stenciling. Isn't she pretty - she's from the Red, White & Blue ephemera sheet #1. The large star is also from Gecko Galz. I printed it out full size and then cut it out. The star is from paper called Bursting in Air.

I also used some washi tape, part of a white doily and the #4 from Tim Holtz.

This will not be true mail art because I'm not sending it to anyone - I like it too much and am keeping it for myself!

Father's Day

I love this Gecko Galz image! I used burlap for the background to add texture, but I had to add the gold doily because this man looks so elegant.

Only 2 more weeks and my daughter will be married!! I will have time to create again! I am ready to get back into my art room!!

Gecko Galz projects

I want to share some Gecko Galz projects I've made over the last few months. What fun I've had creating these and using the fabulous Gecko collage sheets!!!

First up is a tag made with an April image. I loved the high fashion look of the lady!

Next up is a card using the same lady.

Five ATC's I made with April's monochrome images.

For the design team Spring challenge, I made this tray using Gecko Galz bird images.
