Hello Everyone!

 

I want to welcome everyone to the eleventh destination of

Gecko Galz 5th Annual Blog Hop.

 

If you started here you might want to go back and start at the beginning at the Gecko Galz blog so you won’t miss anything!  

We have 14 AMAZING blogs for you to visit this weekend, each with some gorgeous projects created using the Gecko Galz exclusive blog hop collage sheets, that we are giving you for FREE! Each blog you visit will have another free Gecko Galz Collage sheet for you to grab, the one here is

"PAPER PERSONAS".

Also make sure you collect all the “secret” words on each blog so at the end of the hop you can send in the phrase to enter our drawing for a wonderful treat. 

So sit back, relax, take your time and enjoy the hop!

 

We have FOUR amazing prizes up for grabs:

 Read on to learn how you can win!

 

First of all, you will need to visit all 14 blogs and leave a comment on each blog :) **This is important so we know you have been to all the blogs **. Collect all 14 words (one on each blog site except the home site) and at the end of the blog on the Fripperies and Butterflies site there will be a link to email the phrase to Gecko Galz.

This enters you in the contest. On November 2nd we will randomly draw the 4 winners and email each of you, then we will post the winning names on the Gecko Galz blog site.

 

For an extra chance to win make a purchase from the GECKO GALZ ETSY STORE between the 29 of October and the 1^st of November and your name goes in again for a better chance of winning (each purchase you make that weekend gives you another chance to win) 

 

The matted circle has the head part of one of Gecko Galz lovely images.  No other images are on the card as it is a sympathy card.  The small beige square slips out of the strap and give three places for messages

 

This is a partial view of the inside of the card

This card has an unusual background.  It is wrapping paper.  I think it is perfect for this Gecko Galz image.

 

One of my Christmas projects is a puzzle made from one of the background images.  Above is one of the corner pieces.

In the Spotlight Again at Gecko Galz

I am in the spotlight on Gecko Galz again today.  Here are some cards I have made for the occasion.

 

On this tag I colored the image slightly with Copic Markers.  I used one of the

Gecko Galz backgrounds and stamped a sprig over it.  On top of that is a piece of leftover gold ribbon that I had cut from a bow.

 

 

Gecko Galz is having a blog hop at the end of October so make sure you come back.

 

A New Challenge Begins

A new challenge is beginning at Lunagirl.  I began the month by making a tag.  I love using text to my tags and cards so I ripped some small pieces from an old textbook.  On top I put one of Lunagirl's great gothic images.
