Beach Finds

Be sure to pop over to the  https://geckogalzscrapbooking.blogspot.com/  to get my free digital image. You'll find it under the Gecko Galz June 15 blog post featuring my design team samples.  Here are more details about my samples.  The lesson here is:  if you don't have enough ephemera and have a photoshop program with digital files, you can add anything to your composition.

All the Princesses Cream Pearl Buttons and some extra fish from Janet Kemp over at Pixel Scrapper

Substrate:
Rogue Redhead Designs Beach Babes sand stamp (retired company)

Journal Page

digital composition using: 
Gecko Galz She Sells Sea Shells digital paper pack and Take Me To The Shore digital collage set
extra digital images from my stash: pen, shell, label; internet quote
I printed out the ledger paper, distressed it, took a photo of it to use as a png file, and placed it in the digital composition.


Black and White Card

black card
Gecko Galz Black and White Jewel It digital set and Checkmate Card Toppers
digital brads and flower from stash
I printed out and cut all the jewel papers and created a pattern on the black card.
Then I printed out and added the checkmate image.  After I took a photo of the finished card, I digitally added the brads and flower.
