* Gecko Galz: Spring's Muse


Hello!

I hope that the start of the new month sees you all safe and well. These are difficult and testing times that we're going through and we must all play our part in staying at home to avoid the spread of the virus.
If you need a distraction, then why not take a look at the Gecko Galz daily challenges. Just use one GG product to be in with a chance of winning a daily prize and everyone who plays along gets a collage sheet.

The new month sees the start of a new customer challenge at the Gecko Galz blog. The theme for April is Spring's Muse. We would love for you to join the challenge using one or more products from Gecko Galz.

Here is what I made:



It is a kraft tag/hanging. I chose a beautiful image from the Vintage Beauties collage set. This lovely lady depicts springtime for me. She looks so fresh and serene with pretty flowers in her hair. 
I distressed and inked the edges of the image and then went along with the shabby chic theme adding die cut kraft borders, which I lightly gessoed, lace and trims along with some burlap trim, twine and pink organza style ribbon trims. White paint splatters and Nuvo clear drops add to the shabbiness.



I added some paper roses and pink stamen to the bottom corner of the image. The sentiment is from the Charming Words collage set.

I hope you'll join our Spring's Muse Challenge where the Winner will get a
