Less is More - Silhouettes

Very quick post today, we have visitors this evening and I need to do some baking. I immediately thought of this lampost when I saw the theme for this week at Less is More - Silhouettes. Even after 41 years my OH really does light up my life (yeh, I know it's sloppy!!).
Changing from my usual base, this week it's C6 but cut lengthways so it opens at the top. White linen card, silhouette cut in black pearlised card and the sentiment was generated in Publisher and printed. I might add abit of bling to the 'rays' later.Not sure about that yet though.
That's it for now, my kitchen is calling. Many, many thanks for all the lovely comments last week. I managed to visit a few blogs, not as many as I would have liked, but maybe this week I'll have a little more spare time (says she laughing).
And thanks again to Mandi and Chrissie for yet another inspired theme.
