Gecko Galz Featured Designer Today

 Hello dear friends from near and far,

Today I am so pleased to announce that I am the featured designer on the Gecko Galz blog . Using this month's theme of  "Wish Upon A Star ",  I was inspired me to make these  romantic greeting cards,.

To see other creations this month, you can also check out the Gecko Galz blog and meet all our designers, get FREE collage sheets everyday  and participate with all kinds  of challenges on Facebook too. We also have a Pinterest Page with a Page dedicated to all of my past projects.

Here are my art pieces all using images from Gecko Galz " Wish Upon A Star " collage sheet on Etsy that I am sharing with you today: 

You are Enough

With Brave Wings She Flies

Start Each Day With A Grateful Heart

 To make these cards I started by layering hand made gelli prints as backgrounds. Accent stamps or stickers came next. Thin tulle was layered over this to diffuse the background . The female images were fussy cut from the Wish Upon a Star collage sheet from Gecko Galz on Etsy. Accents like the butterflies, stickers, pieced paper, paper borders or gold leaves were the top layer. The sentiments came last with glitter Stickle accents of course.

Hope you get to wish upon a start this month!

Take care,

Gerri

                 Here is a greeting card Titled "She Shines Like the Stars"                               that I  made for your inspiration:

To make this, I started by stamping a blank card with black stars,  layering the background image of the hand painted planets on to that. The Gecko Galz image was fussy cut and added on top and is from the Wish Upon A Star collage sheet on Etsy. The sentiment says "Shine like the stars" and it was put on a border label paper. The sparkly fiber, a star necklace and glitter Stickles accents came last.

Remember to shine like the stars this month in all you do,

Artfully yours,

Gerri
