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.

WISHING YOU A SPECIAL DAY

Hi Everyone

I hope your week has got off to a good start.  Certainly the world seems extra busy now half-term has finished. 

I decided to post early today so I didn't run out of time .. .. like I did yesterday!!  Shame on  me!!!  Where does the time go?

Anyway, round to my share for today:




This used:

Sentiment:  Pink Petticoat "Lovely Mum Sentiments" (brilliant for a birthday as well as Mother's Day)
Backing Papers:  Pink Petticoat "Isabelline" (I have nearly used up all the papers I printed off from this set so you will be having a break from them for a bit .. .. though I could happily use them all day long .. . I LURVE THEM!!!)
X-Cut Punches:  Butterflies
Martha Stewart Punch:  Daisy
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
My Trust Sewing Machine
Netabilites:  Labels 4
Flowers, brad, button, feathers and pearls from my stash box

So there we go.

All caught up with posting .. .. just need to catch up with my commenting now .. ..  I am getting there slowly .. .. albeit if very slowly,

Enjoy your Tuesday  Hope your weather is nicer than the dull, damp, day we have here.  But never mind, it could be worse!!!

Catch you soon

Love

This is lovely Jules, so pretty and that sentiment is beautiful.
I know what you mean about those papers they are gorgeous, I'm trying to keep away from Pink Petticoat at the moment - I always seem to spend when I visit and I know there are some new papers coming soon!
I hope the Wedding orders are going well.

A fabulous card, stunning, has everything but yet still clean looking and classy.
I am also so pleased that you have used the flowers as I have loads of this type of flower and I am on a mission to use them, nearly thrown then away 3 times but decided to hold back.
