Hello

 The theme for the customer challenge over at the Gecko Galz blog is Magic.al Mushrooms and today is my DT day, so I get to share my projects.

As always, we also have the monthly card challeng.ethe monthly Christmas Image Challenge, the monthly Stamp Challenge, an ATC challenge, a Steampunk challenge and a Gothic Challenge on the blog, as well as 4 Facebook challenges. These can be accessed by the tabs at the top of the main blog pageWe also have the new quarterly challenge.
We hope you can find some time to join in the fun.

The winner of the Customer challenge will get a $25 Gecko Galz Etsy Store voucher and the runner up a $12 voucher. There are plenty of free Gecko Galz images if you don't already own any. Each blog post has a free image to collect and, if you sign up for the monthly newsletter, there is the chance to claim a free collage set each month.  Also if you make any purchase of $2 or more you receive a free image.

Here are the projects I made:


I used a beautiful image from the Mushroom Maidens collage set and teamed it with Sizzix dies coloured with Oxide inks. The background is white card dipped in Oxide inks and matted onto gold card and then die cut Kraft card.

This second card features a background image from Stained Glass Nature and the fox and mushrooms are fussy cut from the Stained Glass Beauty collage set.


The background is crackle paste through a stencil and then coloured with Oxide ink. Gold card is used for mats and the card base is made from Kraft card.
