Pink Gem Designs - A Gem of a Challenge!!

....In all of my blog hopping lately, I came across a wonderful new stamp line that I immediately fell in LOVE with.  It's called  Pink Gem Designs!   I browsed the site and found several adorable stamps I wanted to buy, and was happy to find that the prices were shown in both British Pound, Euro Dollar and USD and also that they accepted PayPal.  I then ordered my first three stamps and (Janet) shipped them out to me the very same day.  (Thank you)!   Knowing they would be arriving from the UK, I figured it would take at least a week or so, but amazingly I had them in 6 days.  They are nice clear crisp acrylic stamps and work wonderful.   I will be buying more and was very pleased with the service and super fast shipping. 
  This is MY very first Pink Gem Design card and for this card I used one of the Fairy Stamps and this one is called "Sunflower Sprinkles".  For more "Sprinkles" stamps - Click Here!  She was one of my favorites and I bought three different Sprinkles images.




 And this is the sketch from the challenge blog that I based my card on - 

  This card is also my submission for their very first  "A Gem of a Challenge" and you can play along at this link (Click Here)!  For more details on the challenge and to print out your own copy of the Sketch - be sure to hop on over and check out the cards the design team has already created.

  I can also tell you that I really think these stamps are wonderful and hope you will ALL take some time to check out the store.  They have a large variety of images and they are all well-priced.  I will continue to add to my collection of Pink Gem Design Stamps and I am very happy I found the store!  
   If you want to see some more of these wonderful images, please go to the Pine Gem Designs Gallery  - HERE!  ENJOY!!


  Happy Shopping...and as always...HAPPY CRAFTING!

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
