Gecko Galz: Yuletide Dreams

   

Hello

It's December and we have a new customer challenge over at the Gecko Galz blog.  

The theme this month is Yuletide Dreams.

As always, we have free images to download to make projects to enter the Card Challenge, the Christmas Image Challenge, the Fantasy Challenge, an ATC challenge, a Steampunk Challenge and a Gothic Challenge,. The free images can be accessed by the tabs at the top of the main blog page. We also have a quarterly challenge on the blog.

If that isn't enough challenges, we also have 4 Facebook challenges each month.

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 is what I made as inspiration for the Customer Challenge..

It's a mini Pyramid Book, which opens alternately to the left and to the right and it folds down like a concertina or accordion.

Here is the front:

I used printed card to create the book structure and heat embossed the edge of the pages in gold. There are five double sided pages in my book and they open one way and then the other. The top pages are 2 x 2 inches and the base paper are 4 x 4 inches.

The first pages:

I used an image from Nature's Winter collage set on the right and a free image from Little Winter Birds which was a free with purchase set last month.

The second pages:

Here I used a Christmas Tidings image (free with purchase set) and an image from the Christmas Carols collage set.

The third pages:

Both of these images are from the Yuletide Magic Card Topper collage set.

Fourth pages:

A free with purchase Vintage Santa on the left and an image from Once Upon a Time Junk Journal Set on the right.

Fifth pages:

These two darling images are from a set I received for commenting on the Gecko Galz blog posts. Each month Leanne gives away 4 sets of prizes simply for commenting.

The back of the Pyramid Booklet:

I decided to leave this blank so that the patterned card could be seen.

And finally here are two photos showing the booklet when it is open. Both sides of the concertina have images.

That's all for now!

I hope you'll join our 'Yuletide Dreams' 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.

Please pop over to the Gecko Galz blog to see the fabulous designs by the very talented DT.

We also have a friendly Facebook Group where there are 4 monthly challenges, each with a bespoke digital prize. 

Do come and join us!

I'll be back on the 10th December with more Gecko Galz projects.
