Secret Revealed...and a Fun Customer Challenge Begins

Hello, my lovely friends!

I've been keeping a secret for months!

Actually, I don't think I've ever kept a secret this long! lol

I'm beyond thrilled to have been invited to the 

Gecko Galz Design Team! 

Those of you that are regulars to my blog 

know that I love to work with printable bits and pieces. 

Gecko Galz has an incredible selection of goodies!

I find them totally inspiring and I'm excited to share them with you! :o)

Also, Gecko Galz holds a Customer Challenge beginning the first of every month. 

The December Challenge is "Tag You're It" and it's a very special one.

The design team will be sharing tags, made with products from Gecko Galz, throughout the entire month! 

I have quite a few to share with you that I had the best time making! :o)

All the details and rules are listed over on the blog.

There are some great prizes to be won too! :o)

Today I have my first tag to share with you.

I began by creating my card base out of a teal cardstock.

On top of the tag I adhered the Snow Much Fun paper

from the Winter Wonderland Paper Pack.

I left the bottom right-hand corner free 

to show off the lovely snowflake feature on the paper.

When I cut the paper out I left white edges on the top and bottom.

I punched those edges with a snowflake border punch.

The lovely Silent Night image came from the

Alter It Digital Collage Sheets.

I inked the edges and added some Diamond Stickles.

The image of the beautiful girl on the right is from the

Snow Babies Digital Collage Set.

Under my watermark is a snowflake corner punched,

with a teal cardstock snowflake adhered into it,

and a white snowflake on top.

The sweet angel image came from one of the icon sheets 

from the Blue Christmas Craft Kit.

I added more Diamond Stickles to her wings.

I added a pretty sheer bow to a Christmas sprig,

and adhered it beside the angel. 

At the top of the tag, I adhered a punched snowflake, and punched a whole through it. 

I added a white eyelet and threaded more sheer ribbon through it. 

I added a drop of Diamond Stickles to the center of each snowflake.

Finally, I attached a fun light bulb embellishment using a garment pin. 

So that is how I put my tag together! I hope you like it!
