A Little Bit of Easter

Most of us are working on Valentine's Day projects so it's hard to believe I'm thinking ahead to Easter, but now is the time to get those fabby images.  This cute dress is from the January release Gecko Galz Bits and Pieces.  

 
I printed it out on card stock, folded the paper at the sleeves, and then fussy cut out the dress shape.  I printed out a second dress in order to cut out the nest, remove the center and then pop it up with foam dots in order to glue in the three 10mm plastic eggs.  I added more dimension with a rose and bow. 

Back to the present;  Just a little reminder--Gecko Galz is featuring 30 Days of Valentine's Day.   Visit each day to see a Valentine created by one of our design team members along with instructions and a product special.  I have a special badge with a link to Gecko Galz on my sidebar for your convenience.
