LESS IS MORE SENTIMENT

Morning all, the challenge over at SIMPLY LESS IS MORE this week is to make a one layer card where the sentiment is the focal point.  It has taken me all morning to work this one out, the images are from PAULETTE.  They are two seperate images I wanted to fade the Giraffe into the background with the sentiment on the top, after going through loads of copy paper I have printed it off onto 300gsm linen look cardstock and I hope I have acheived the desired effect.  I look forward to hearing what you all think of it.

    THis is lovely and a great sentiment and made me smile. My 7yr old son came home yesterday and asked 'if you stood full grown giraffes on top of each other how many would you need to be the same height as the Eiffel Tower?' I'll let you think about that one! TFS
