Here In the Darkness I Know Myself

I wanted to keep the rule of 3 with the embellishments but couldn't figure out where to put the third one.  I was inspired by the way her hands were held to add it as though she was holding it.

Gecko Galz Gothic Challenge - March Image
https://geckogalzscrapbooking.blogspot.com/p/gecko-galz-monthly-gothic-challenge.html

I have used a digital paper, sentiment and image from Gecko Galz.  I also partially inked a word stamp from Rubbadubbadoo and applied it in a few places on the digital paper.  The three flower/leaf additions are from an ephemera pack.

The Girl with Kaleidoscope Eyes

I went with a pastel colour scheme for this one to match the image - but adding some brighter stars as highlights.

Red Riding Hood

 I usually only create three ATC for the challenge at Gecko Galz.  This time I created four as I couldn't decide which of the images in the set that I wanted to use.  I repeated one of the bases.

Merry Christmas

We are starting to get cooler temperatures here in the morning so it is making me think snowflakes!

Craftlandia Challenge - Easter
https://craftartista.blogspot.com/2024/03/craftlandia-challenge-18.html

I have used a digital paper, image and sentiment from Gecko Galz.  I die-cut the word "Happy" three times using a die from Tattered Lace, then layered the dies to create a layered sentiment.  Colouring is with copic markers and Wink of Stella with some Glossy Accents added to the flower centres.  I also added a piece of washi tape.

This is the second of the more time consuming projects for this month's Gecko Galz Challenges.
