A very warm welcome to my teeny, tiny part of the huge world of blogging. This is where I share my passion for making hand made greeting cards. So - why "Always with a Heart"? Well this is for two reasons. Firstly, it is because every card I produce carries a heart on it somewhere. This can be big and bold or small and almost hidden - the fun sometimes is just trying to find it! Secondly it is because I put my heart into everything I produce. I hope that any visitors enjoy seeing what I post. If you drop by then please leave me a comment so that I know you called. It would be nice to know that you have found my heart in what I do.

MY SNEAKY PEEP GOT A SHOWING

Hi Everyone

How goes it with you?

I do believe I feel a bit better today .. .. yay!!  Though I still haven't gained a gold star for sleeping through the night yet :-(

I have even managed a bit of the dreaded housework and been much more productive on the card production front too.  So things are picking up!!

All of my makes have been for orders today so I have decided to share with you the full version of the "sneaky peep" I showed you on Friday ahead of the launch of the new Funky Hand CD at the weekend and then another make that might make an appearance on Friday.

Here is the full version of what I shared last Friday:


 
This used:

Backing Papers and Sentiment:  Funky Hand CD "Craft the Year Away"
Ribbon and Buttons also from Funky Hand (lots of new goodies appearing in Anice's stash shop) The ribbons are lush!!!!
Woodware Punches:  Scalloped Oval and Large and Medium flowers
Distress Ink:  Barn Door

Did you manage to catch Anice on Sunday?  If so you might have caught a glimpse of my make.

The sentiment oval was made by typing the words "Happy" and "Birthday" multiple times using the CD writer.  I just kept changing the type, size and colour of the font for each word.  Some beautiful fonts on the CD .. .. .. must make some makes to showcase these for you.  I am sure you will love them as much as I do.

Anice has another two live shows being shown this Friday .. .. .. so a warm comfy sofa will be my order of the day (along with colouring supplies and a few mugs of coffee -  LOL!!).

Here is another make using the same CD .. .. love the colours in this set.



All images, papers and sentiments are from the Funky Hand CD "Craft the Year Away"
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
Nestabilities:  Standard Circles Large, Classic Scalloped Circles Large

Faux Stitching using a dressmakers tracing wheel 
Glamour Dust
Crystal Stickles

I am around bright and early tomorrow as a new challenge is being launched over at Penny Black at Allsorts .. .. so see you then.

Have a lovely evening.

Love
