It's a New Year!

(and thank goodness for that!)

and a new year at

Gecko Galz means

the Design Team

(with some very talented new members)

 is busy

creating all sorts of inspiration for you!

I used a couple of

GLORIOUS

papers from the new

"In Marble Halls" paper pak and images from the

"Ring In The New Year" collage sheet set for these two pieces:

Aren't those fun?  

So easy to do, especially the second one.

I just sampled the colours from this beautiful sheet

flipped the image, added a cropped and masked image

of the woman and then went crazy with brushes in those

amazing colours!

SO MUCH FUN!

For this next one, I cropped the puppy on the bicycle from

the "Dog Gone Cute" Jewel Sheet.

Isn't he just Doggone Cute?

I added the cool frame

(and I'm sorry, it's from my stash and

I can't remember who it's from)

I placed that over another GREAT paper from the 

"In Marble Halls" paper pak

Picked up the colour grey from the doggie's background

and coloured a basic mask I made with that colour.

I cropped the words from the "Scripted" Collage Sheet

and added one of the Gecko Galz Frames.

Finally, I merged the layers and 

applied a Film Grain filter.

DONE!

I think that is one of the quickest pieces I've done lately.

Don't tell anyone, but my first sample

took two hours and had at one point 34 layers.

That's not a record, but it's close. lol
