Challenge 182 - Sentiment as Focus

 Good morning and welcome to Moving Along With the Times! 

A big thank you to everyone who joined us last month - don't forget to come back a week today to see if you were in the top 3 for that challenge.

Before we talk about today's new challenge we are still running a:

DESIGN TEAM CALL

Would you like to join us as part of the Design Team?  We'd love to have a few more team members on board.

Here's what you need to know:

1. Our challenges are monthly on the first of the month and each challenge has a theme.

2. We don't have sponsors so you can use your own stash to make your projects.

3. You need to have a Facebook account to access our DT group as well as a blog for sharing your projects.

4. Each team member will have one or two numbers (depending on the size of the team) to comment on each month.

5. Team members take it in turns to choose the top 3 entries from the previous month's challenge.

Interested?  Please e-mail me at madebyhelenblog@yahoo.com 

Tell me a bit about yourself and give me your blog link and we'll take it from there.

Thank you to everyone who has responded to our Design Team Call already.  Last month we welcomed Brenda and this month we are also welcoming Andreja.

Now back to today's new challenge.

Our theme is:

SENTIMENT AS FOCAL POINT

And here is some inspiration from our wonderful Design Team:
