Hello
Today is my DT day at Gecko Galz and I have a new project to share.
I made a greeting card using a beautiful image from the Mistress Mary collage set. I teamed it with papers from the Tattered Dutchess ATC set - one of my absolute favourite paper packs .
The image does all the work. I matted it onto cream paper and added it with foam pads to the distressed darker paper. I made some wild flowers using Tim Holtz thinlet dies and watercolour paper. I used distress oxides to colour them and added them to the side of the image to create my secret garden.
I made a banner for below the image and used a Tim Holtz sticker quote. Here is a closer look:

Earlier this month, I shared two projects that I made for the customer challenge.
Here they are again and details can be viewed here.
