Hi All, today I am sharing another card I made with Gecko Galz Beautiful Bookmarks and Gecko Galz Zen Garden Papers, love the beautiful deep colors in these papers! 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. See how just that little bit of black card
stock makes the image really pop? Don't forget Gecko Galz has the buy 1
get one sale for the month of May, great time to stock up on some
beautiful paper and collage sets. Not sure if you can see it, I added one of the tiniest flower gems to the flower in her hair, looks great IRL. I layered 2 ribbons together, you can see just a hint of gold peeking through. I use the Xyron 1.5 Create a Sticker to attach most of my ribbons, it does a perfect job of it without staining them. I don't know why they marketed it and called it "create a sticker" I rarely use it for stickers, they should have called it the "attach a ribbon" machine, in my humble opinion.
Well, that's it, hope you all are warming up a bit by now. Thanks for looking. ~Diane
I am entering this into the Sugar Creek Hollow challenge Clean it out, everything used here has been in my stash for quite some time. The ribbons have to be 2 years old at least and the gems are at least 2 years old also. The paper is about a year old and the bookmark is the newest at about 6 months old, I printed them out when I bought them and then did not use them. Great idea to use what we have!

Zen yet bright and sunny. I adore how you always line the envelope to match the cards. Great detail...
ReplyDeleteHi Diane,
ReplyDeleteI love the cheerful yellow you gave this card and all the details.
Your signature lined envelope gives it the perfect finishing touch. I also have items in my stash for years before I finally find a use for them. I guess we all do this. It's just the process of creating!
Best wishes in the challenge. I vote for your card!!!!
Have a great evening.
Hugs, Celestina Marie
Just so elegant Diane. Thanks I will also dig out my Xyron now and use it for ribbon applications.
