Gecko Galz Tag Challenge

                

This is a challenge with a freebie image    

... the tag challenge 

I have made the following tag where the image has been decoupaged and made to fit on an ATC sized background.

The background is a designer paper from my stash.

The image is placed on a die cut cut using a Tonic die.

I added glossy accents to the gem areas.

Tiny Pieces of Art - July

 At the beginning of the year I started a year long challenge courtesy of Linda Pearson on Facebook

I decided to use index cards as I had a little booklet of these in my stash. 

I like this format as I have been doing the Index Card a Day Challenge during June and July for some years now.

This is how far I have got so far:

This month's prompts are as follows:

Week 1

Images from Bugaboo (no longer trading) painted with water colour. 

I added the raindrops - stamps by Designs by Ryn with added glossy accents.

Week 2

First layer is fabric stitched in place. I then added embossed clouds and raindrops (Embossing folder from Apple Blossom), emphasised with scorched timber distress ink. Girl and sentiment stamps from Altenew. White blobs of dimensional dot paint.

Week 3

Water coloured rainbow background. 

Stamps by Art by Marlene, Altenew and Designs by Ryn.

Week 4

Background Gelli pull.

Added yellow fluoro paint and silver pen.

Quote from the internet.

Week 5

Window die cut.

Papers from my stash. 

A selection of snowflakes.

Happy Crafting!
