New Year and New Challenge at Gecko Galz!

Hi and welcome to my blog!

I want to take a moment to wish you all a Happy New Year!

There is a fun challenge at Gecko Galz Challenge Blog running from January 1-29th and the theme is Gatsby Girls.

My first project of 2025 is a set of cards based on my first layout PSCJ - 202501:

PSCJ - 202501

It's a very simple design and the end result is beautiful. It can be used for cards, journal pages, ATC's, scrapbook pages, etc.

You are free to grab it and use it for your projects, but please give credit to the designer.

This are the cards created:

The images used are from Gatsby Girls Digital Collage Set. Added dry embossing to the white panel and the texture adds so much to the card.

Hope you have fun with the layout.

Hugs,

Julia
