It's All About The Sentiment

Hi Everyone, hope you are all having a good weekend.  
We went out to a 50th birthday party last night.  The vodka was flowing a bit too freely and I am feeling a bit delicate today.  Still, we had a good time and it was nice catching up with people we don't see very often.

Anyway, today sees the start of a new challenge over at Corrosive Challenges.  Our theme for this challenge is 
My Sentiments Exactly
Just use a sentiment on your creation, whether it accompanies an image or is your main focal point.
Our sponsor for this challenge who is generously giving a prize of a $10 voucher to the winner is Graphicat Designs.


I used this great sentiment from Graphicat for my creation today.  I decided not to have an image and use the sentiment as the focal point.  I also went with a feminine, girly theme.  I also didn't use any papers on this one.  The backing is a piece of foiled acetate.  This card will be going to a really good friend of mine for her birthday in October.  Get me, so organised.

For more inspiration just check out my teamies creations over at Corrosive Challenges.  Looking forward to seeing all your creations.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Natalie and Amy - Things with wings
Lisa B - Wings and things
Simon Says - Things with wings
Crafts and Me - Lace
Whimsy Stamps - Anything goes
Sassy Studio - Flowers
Crafty Ribbons - No designer paper
