Gecko Galz thank you card

 Hi All, another Gecko Galz card to share with you today.  I think I have mentioned I am a "paper hoarder", I just love papers and the Gecko Galz papers are the best!  This paper is called Greencap and it is from the Neverland set.  See all the texture on it?  That is "painted" onto the paper itself, I did not texturize it an any way!  I take that back, I should be more clear, I did emboss the words thank you on to the card and then hit it with a Tim Holts distress ink pad, but the actual texture of the paper is there, built into the print!  I know, only paper hoarders will understand my excitement over this, but this is the most beautiful paper I have ever worked with!  This was a really quick card to make, I am in love with this paper!  My daughter asked me to make her some quick thank you cards so these beautiful papers really made that easy. 
 Of course I used my Perfect Layers Rulers to get the precise layers on my card, see my sidebar for a coupon or click on my link above.  
Speaking of Gecko Galz and papers, This month Gecko Galz is having their Bi-Annual buy one get one free sales event. When you buy one you get another of equal value FREE!  Good thing they are digital or I would buy them all out before you had a chance ha ha!  BTW I have had my eye on 2 paper packs, maybe a Mothers Day present, hint hint, lol!

  6. This paper sure looks really rich and vibrant...and I love what you did to it with that embossing folder. I have that folder too and all I do is run it through metallic cardstock and think that is a lot!!! I think your card is SENSATIONAL.
    The envelope even more so.
    Love,
