More Fourth of July Fun!!

Howdy y'all!! It has been super HOT this summer here in Central Texas, so, I've been spending much of my time indoors and actually getting a little creating done in the process!

I've got another Fourth of July Card to show you. I've used more Gecko Galz products!! And, it comes with a complete tutorial!! Just take a hop over to the Purple Cows Blog for Designer Friday with....me!

Purple Cows has come out with some fun, fun tools this year. So, take a look! Enjoy your Fourth of July (and your independence!!) and....Happy Creating!!

Happy Fourth of July!

I hope everyone (who celebrates) has a wonderful Fourth of July weekend. Here in Central Texas we're under a burn ban, so most local fireworks displays have been cancelled, so we'll celebrate with food and family!

Here's a card I made to commemorate the occasion. I used various patterned papers from Gecko Galz Liberty Papers collection. I also used a digital stamp from the Gecko Galz July Beautiful Background Stamps images. I printed the stamp image on vellum and then deco podged that over a patterned paper. I then added in a quote from the Gecko Galz July Patriotic Sentiments, mixed in some ribbon, stickles and a hand made mini banner.

Hope you enjoy your independence!!!

Happy Creating!

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there!!!

I created this card using Prima patterned papers from my stash, a Gecko Galz May "my Heart Belong to Daddy" Ephemera, and
Purple Cows Decorative Pins.

Happy Creating!!

Happy Father's Day Project

I created this 8" x 10" wall hanging as a Father's Day gift. I used Gecko Galz Strawberry Fields papers and My Heart Belongs to Daddy Ephemera. I used a graphic drawing of Charles Lindberg's Spirit of St. Louis printed on Gacko Galz papers. I then paper pieced the plane for a three dimensional effect. Fun!

Hope you enjoy...and Happy Creating!
