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.

STAMP FAIRY CHALLENGE AND FETCH A SKETCH


Hi Everyone

Here I am a little late for a Wednesday as The Apprentice is just about to start .. .. eeekkk!!!

Just heard they need to create biscuits with a difference.  Well that is simple .. .. heart shaped and full of huge chocolate chips .. .. simples!!!!  Big biscuits for the grown ups and little ones for the kiddlies!!!  Come fetch me Lord Sugar!!!!

Tonight I have made a card for entering into two challenges.

The Stamp Fairy Challenge where the challenge needs you to use a teddy bear image, three flowers, two ribbons and a sentiment.

and .....

drum roll please ..... ...


Fetch a Sketch is a brand new sketch challenge that has started this week and is being run by my fellow Funky Hand teamies .. Jenny and Ruth.

So here is my creation:





This used:

Image:  Stamp Fairy
Backing Papers:  My Minds Eye "Summer Papers" (free with a magazine last year)
Sentiment:  Pink Petticoat
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
Nestabilities (need to find the name of this)
Fiskars Punch:  Corner Rounder
X-Cut Punch:  Small Flower
Ribbon from the Stash Box

Here is the sketch if you fancy playing along



OK .. .. off to link up and then settle into my favourite programme!

Catch you again soon. 

Love
