* Gecko Galz: Wild World


 Hello

I've had this lovely image from Gecko Galz on my desk for a couple of weeks and decided it was time to put it to use.

I made a card and added one of the Music Maker Sentiments which I thought was appropriate.


Isn't this such a beautiful scene? I mean, I know it's not so good for the people on the ship, but the wildness and natural beauty here is astounding. The image is one of 50 from the January Pre-Raphaelite Monthly Kit from Gecko Galz. (This is a yearly subscription kit club - each month you receive a different themed kit containing 50 images. You can join anytime and you will get the back months straight away. 
I teamed the image (PRA42) with some vintage coloured patterned papers from my stash; I distressed the edges to add to the wildness :) I knew I wanted the 'Wild World' sentiment, but didn't want it to distract from the image, so I printed it out onto vellum. I added three paper flowers and called my card done.

 

That's all for now!
I hope you'll join our Silly Love Songs Challenge where the winner will get a $25 shopping spree at the Gecko Galz shop.


The only rule is that you must use at least one Gecko Galz product (this can be one of the freebies or, of course, you can buy at the Etsy store!) Also if you sign up for the Gecko Galz newsletter, you'll be able to claim a free collage sheet each month and get first claim on the monthly $1 deals!
