Gecko Galz: Once Upon A Time

Hello

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

The theme this month is Once Upon A Time.

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 collage sheet.

Here are the projects I made.

I altered the front of this notebook using an image from the Storybook Darlings collage set. I added ivory crochet lace, gold stickers, gems and die cut florals with a die cut 'Just a Note' sentiment.

The princess and frog image is from the Storybook Darlings collage set. I added it to some vintage, floral design paper with die cut, inked hollyhocks and a die cut sentiment.

This beautiful image is from the Storybook Darlings collage set. I added it to a dark blue scalloped frame, adding white paint splatters and Stickles glitter. Die cut leaves and shop bought flowers decorate one corner and a typed sentiment finishes the piece.

That's all for now!

I hope you'll join our 'Once Upon A Time' 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 July with more Gecko Galz projects.
