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.

Well done Hazel.  Please email me here with your full name and address and I will pass it through to Kerry at Handy Hippo so that your prize can begin wending its way to you.

Oooooo.. .. I am all excited for you and I can't wait to see what you create with all of the goodies.

Whilst I am here it would be rude to leave without a quick crafty share. 

This is the other cute little snowman that comes alongside the one I used in my post here yesterday.

Backing Papers:  Wild Rose Studio "Wintry Christmas"

ProMarkers

Oh I do love this little snowman.  He is sitting waiting to be coloured with lots of different coloured scarves and hats and makes for a quick card as there isn't too much to colour .. .. ... that is the beauty of a snowman I suppose LOL!!!

Have a wonderful day everyone .. ..  I am super happy today as I had some amazing craft related news yesterday!!  Not able to share for a few weeks .. .. but it is mega news!!  Woo hoo!!!
