On Your Christening Day!

Wow where did that week go to? It flew past, with me not posting again...oops! Hopefully now The Perfect Sentiment is back on a Wednesday you will be seeing more of me lol!!

Well as its our first challenge back, we have a really easy challenges for you at The Perfect Sentiment....

YOUR FAVOURITE TECHNIQUE!

it can be anything really, as long as your using on your card!

Where we take our Charlie to the vets, I have started leaving a box of cards for them to sell....with all pennies being donated to the 'Greyhound Trust' which is good cus that's what my pooch is! Well I got a phone call from one of the Vet Nurses asking if I could make her a 'Christening' card.....never made one before! Hope she likes it lol!!

I have gone with decoupaging stamped images & die cuts!


I just wish you could see the pink mirri card better, it's got tiny hearts all over it, looks so sweet!


I don't do the inside very often & did wonder what to put inside but Nige found this free sentiment online which we both thought was perfect!
