***UPDATE Jan 4th 2016***

Hello Friends!!

I hope you are having a fabulous day!!

 It's February 1st!

You know what that means....a new challenge at Really Reasonable Ribbon!!

This time our theme is ...drum roll please....

Anything but a card & Ribbon!

It is also my turn to be the 

Featured Designer at Gecko Galz!!

Those of you who don't know, Leanne (GG owner) is the one who inspired me to create my own digital collage sheets. 

Leanne has shared with me a few images that she is giving away for free at Gecko Galz.  You will want to sign up for her newsletter so that you too can get the freebie images!!

(if you scroll to the bottom of the gecko galz webpage there is an email sign up....that is how you get her freebie sheets each month).

Here is what she gave me to play with.

The darling little girl image, the hearts digi paper and couple digi stamp!  I changed the color of the little girl's dress, and added a crown, got rid of the heart background :0).  I also changed the color of the digital paper.

Here is what I created, I of course altered the images and some images from Karen the Graphic's Fairy.

I used her Crown, Frame, and heart image.  You can visit the links to get them from Karen.

Here is my Inspiration piece for you to enjoy!

I used my favorite  GLue & Glitters from Art Glitter.

I used some fabby ribbons, buttons and roses from 

Really Reasonable Ribbon.

Here are some close ups!  So hard to get great photos of banners!

I used bay leaf seam binding, red with white dots organza, cotton candy baker's twine, pink organza, red, pink and deep ivory mulberry roses from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

I used my Art Glitter Designer dries clear Glue & Ultra fine Metal Tip and added #208 Fauna, #267 Cheeky Pink,  #349 Garnet, & #287 Arbor Glitters.

Here are a few close ups of my bows which I made using my 

Bow it all tool.

BTW...if you ever purchase anything from the DT's that I am on, please let them know I sent you...I so appreciate it.

Yumminess!!

You can see what items I used where & How I created my bows in my 

Youtube Tutorial below.
 So how would you like the collage sheets that I created for this banner for FREE??

I just ask that you do a couple things for me...because it takes me a lot of time to design my sheets, even though it may not seem like much...it is time consuming.  Much longer than leaving a comment, or liking a page :0).  I hope that these sheets provide you with at least an hour or two of happy creative time!!

Please follow me by email

(this option is in the upper right column)

I will send the collage sheet to you via email.
