Happy Birthday

 I have had this image printed out all month trying to decide what to create with it.  I decided in the end to just go CAS with it and make the sentiment the feature.

I also decided to use a digital paper that was part of a challenge late last year.  At the time, I discovered there was a paper to go with the image after I had already completed my card.  When I was struggling to decide what colours to go with for this image, the paper helped me out a lot.

Beccy's Place - April Challenge
https://beccysplace.blogspot.com/2024/04/april-challenge.html

I have used a digital paper and the sentiment from Beccy's Place.  I added a satin ribbon across the card (matching one of the colours from the digital paper.  Colouring is with copic markers and Kindy Glitz.

For A Friend

This is my second last card for April.  I have another one started that might be a bit hit or miss whether it gets completed and uploaded today.

I have used a digital paper from PixelScrapper (Marisa).  The image is the one provided by The Outlawz for the April Challenge.  I added a doily sprayed with Dylusion Sprays.  Colouring is with copic markers.  The sentiment has been typed on the computer.

Spread your wings and fly

I finally managed to complete all the posts for my participation in the Gecko Galz April Challenges.  I had finished the project yesterday morning but I wasn't happy with the photograph when I went to upload it last night.  I had to wait until this morning until the light was better.  I made it with about 9 hours to spare!

Spooky

 I received some tiny clear stickers in a Happy Mail some time ago (so long that I can't remember who sent them to me).  I finally found a project that I wanted to use them on.

Embrace Your Beauty

 This challenge is a new one at Gecko Galz this month replacing the Stamp Challenge.  Personally, I liked the ability to colour the image for the Stamp Challenge but I guess it wasn't popular with others so it has now been replaced.

Merry Christmas

I focussed on the darker colours of the image to choose the paper.  This one isn't from a Christmas set but I feel it does work for almost any occasion.
