A Gem of a Challenge....


EDITED.....A big sorry I scheduled this for mid morning and it didn't post so sorry to all my team mates for being late.......
So pleased the weekend is here I've not been sleeping to well lately,worried about my Mum who has been ill again,so hoping I get to have a lie in and catch up on some sleep..... Today see's a new challenge over at A Gem of a Challenge,we are also welcoming our new team members......My lovely team mate Gemma is hosting and she has this lovely picture as inspiration for you all.....


And here's my card....


I've used one of the new digi's from Pink Gem designs called Jodie in dungarees....I've coloured with promarkers and flexmarkers.....Then cut her out with my nesties.....All the paper and card is from my scrap box again...


The ribbon is from Crafty Ribbons .....The flowers and glass gems are also from my stash...The sentiment is from a LOTV sentiment set


And here's a little peek at the inside.....

Please pop over to the Challenge blog join in with us and say hi to our new team members

Hi there Mandy,
I do love this card, so bright and cheery and coloured to perfection.
I also know what it's like to not have enough sleep esp due to worry.
Hope your Mum's ok.
Cheers,
