Advice from a catepillar

Today I am the featured artist at Gecko Galz so I am sharing two greeting cards using the theme of Alice in Wonderland for your inspiration.

Advice from a caterpillar.

Queen for a Day

To make the first card I layered a page from Alice in Wonderland, some pink tape, blue lace and black filagree on a blue card, The stamped pocket watch came next and the Gecko Galz image from Wonderful Wonderland came last.
To make the Queen for a day, I layered patterned paper with vintage cutouts from a card game, big heart and tiny cowns. The Gecko Galz image came last layered on tulle. Stickles was the last thing added for a bit of shine,
Hope you will be treated as a Quuen this week,
Always,

Featured Artist Day for Gecko Galz Design Team

Today I am the featured artist as Gecko Galz and I have several  creations to share with you, using Gecko Galz Colors of Spring and Papillion Dreams collage sheet. All are very floral and nature driven greeting cards, as you can certainly see.

To make these cards I gelli print the backgrounds and then start layering. The Gecko Galzimages come first, then the dimensional pieces like paper clay  or ribbon. I always paint and add Stickles glitter to my Gecko Galz  images for additional texture. The sentiments come last and I add a little watercolor paint to them too.



Artfully yours,
