My daughter was due to compete in her very first gymnastics competition and she had refused to compete in two previous competitions due to being very scared and shy. I made this card in advance in of this third and final state comp this year in her club colours to give to her at the end. She was so excited and proud after giving it a go and I was so proud that she overcame a huge hurdle too. She loved the card and had fun at the comp and is now looking forward to the next one!

As You Like It: Brights or Pastels (& why?) I love bright colours because they bold and more focal and can create a louder statement.
