Couple of Gems

Oh my goodness who didn't realise that yesterday was the 8th and there's another super challenge on Gem of a Challenge. I have to confess yesterday wasn't my best of days but my cards are here now. It's a great challenge Special Birthdays since Christine aka Nanaseaside has a very special birthday today. This little Gem is Mimi and those papers are once again My Minds Eye Penny Lane.
This is the surprise inside a pop up 50 although I wish I had used some patterned cardstock rather than white cos it does seem bright.
This little Gem is Kaya and this time I used the Green at Heart papers from Basic Grey and since this card I made for Christine it gives you a huge clue to how special her Birthday is, hope the postman arrives before she looks at my blog.
I know there are Digi images lovers out there and Janet has put a freebie on the challenge blog so come and join us this month.
Well here down south in the UK we're having some beautiful weather and the garden is springing into life.
