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.

BLINGY BAG

Hi Everyone

Happy Tuesday!

Well what a mixed bag of weather today .. .. I think we have had a bit of everything but fog!!

Thank goodness I have been confined to barracks is all I can say (apart from running to the washing line a few times).  Can't believe I actually managed to get washing dry on such a weird weather day!!!

Anyways, here is my share for today:




This used:

Image:  Digistamp Boutique "Handbag Collection"
Sentiment:  Computer Generated using font "Zipty Do" 
Backing Papers:  First Edition Papers "J'Adore"
My Trust Sewing Machine
Glamour Dust
Little Gems

and that is it!!

I think I am happy with it.  I will know in the morning whether I am 100% happy .. .. when I am back to decent light again!!!  I hate crafting in electric light.  Even my daylight bulb makes thinks look a different colour.

I am also going to enter this little creation into the Digistamp Boutique Challenge for February.

Enjoy what is left of Tuesday evening folks.

Love

I think you will be happy with it when you see it in daylight - it looks great to me now.
Know what you mean about electric lighting. The colours are never true and there's always shadows getting in the way.
