Just before I left for England I got a very nice email from Janet at Pink Gem Designs asking me if I'd like to join them as a Guest Designer for 3 months.
I was super excited when Janet asked me to join in as I love their designs! I discovered Pink Gem Designs 2 years ago in a British card magazine and was hooked from the start! The images are so cute and I hope you enjoy my cards for them this 1st quarter of the new year.
Today is my first card as a Guest Designer and this card is part of their A Gem of A Challenge!. From today the challenge goes to every two weeks so more chances to play and win!
Plus we have a fabulous prize to start off 2011 from our generous sponsors...
