Oriental style for Bingo and Sentiment challenge

Oops, have just realised that I didn't post this card for the challenge. I've had some health issues which have kept me off the computer and I thought I had scheduled this one to pop up on time. I'm backdating so It appears in the right spot on my blog and will not be adding it to any challenges for that reason.
The challenge theme is Bingo and a sentiment and our sponsor is Star Stampz.
Here is my card.... and I will add the bingo chart as well.
