More Mother's Day Love

Today my friend and fellow Gecko Galz Design Team member, Heather,  posted an awesome tutorial and a link to a free Mother's Day collage sheet that she created for Graphics Fairy. One of the images was already in my files to use since I had visited GF the night before, so it was perfect that Heather had created a coordinated set to use. Her sets are perfect because you get everything you need image-wise to make a beautiful project. Check out her Etsy store HERE.

So with her collage sheet, I was able to make a card and a bookmark, both for my mom this year. I will laminate the bookmark before I send it to her. You never know what bits of glue may be stuck on the front or back of it, so to protect the book, it would be best to seal it.

Mother's Day Card Supplies:

Cream Cardstock - Recollections
Ink - Distress Ink Brushed Corduroy & Black Soot
Background, Image, and words - Heather A. Hudson
Doily - stash
Yellow Crochet Lace - Michael's
Twine - stash
Glitter glue - Studio G
Pearls - Michael's


Love You Bookmark Supplies:

Background, Image of Girl, and Blank Label - Heather A. Hudson
Washi Tape - Scotch
Doily - stash
Sentiment - Stampin' Up
Ink - Brushed Corduroy and Black Soot
Pink Rick Rack - Wright's
Glitter Glue - Studio G


I will be entering the card into Heather's challenge on her blog My Artistic Adventures, as well as the Mother's Day Challenge on the Gecko Galz Papercrafting Challenge Facebook Group.

Happy Scrappy Savings!

Christmas Tag

I have been out of it for so long from our move that I never realized that my fellow Gecko Galz design team member, Heather, started to host challenges and created her own design team to showcase her products on her blog, My Artistic Adventures! I love her products and her style! So when I realized that the current challenge would be the last until Fall, I knew I had to participate!

The theme was the 4th Day of Christmas, which could be anything as long as you had 4 of something, it was a tangible creation, using her products. Well, I only own 1 collage set:


Such a cute set. You can purchase this on Etsy HERE.

Here is a tag that I made with this set, using 4 candy canes.
