Gem of a Challenge wk 3 - AG 

As You Like It - gems or pearls - for me it's always pearls. I like the elegance that pearls add to a card - they are so feminine, and they add a lovely subtle sheen. Also, as well as being a great value embellishment (so cheap!) they are available in loads of colours (or can be coloured with a marker).
