Before i show you my card i just want to say a huge thank you for all the lovely comments i received last week.. so kind of you all..I will try to get round some blogs to see all your lovely creations..sometimes times against me.. there dosn't seem to be anough hours in the day just lately..

A special thank you to chrissie & mandi for all the challenges thay do for us.. they do a brilliant job :)

 I cut my A4  card stock down to make a square card.. i printed the sentiment onto my card.. I embossed a piece of left over card ready for my embellishment topper which happened to be lying around in my stash..must admit i love the clean fresh look of these sort of cards..ther right up my street..lol..
