My photo
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.

SKETCH SATURDAY

Hi Everyone

Happy Saturday!!!

I hope your weekend is going well.

The weather will have been dry and bright for my happy couple who were getting married this afternoon.  I am just hoping they managed some lovely photographs before the rain started :-(  .  .  .   that is the one thing you can't arrange for your wedding day isn't it.  Decent weather!!

But I am sure they won't have let a few rain drops spoil their special day.  

I had a little play with the Sketch Saturday Challenge sketch earlier today and came up with this little creation below (though my pictures are appearing in reverse order for some reason):




This used:

Image:  Penny Black "3377K" Whispers
Sentiment:  Pink Petticoat "Tiny Everyday Sentiments"
Backing Papers:  My Minds Eye "On The Sunny Side"
Nestabilities:  Classic Circle Large and Scalloped Circles Large
Josy Rose:  Acrylic Domes
My Trusty Sewing Machine
ProMarkers
Buttons, charm and button twine from my stash box

and if you fancy playing along this is the sketch I followed.


We are off out for a meal with friends tonight so I had better go and make myself look decent!!!

Have a great evening everyone and I will catch you again tomorrow with my snippets.  I hear on the grapevine that a few of the scallywags from the snippet playground hit Ally Pally today.  Oh my goodness .. .. I bet they wreaked havoc!!  LOL!!!

Enjoy tonight!!

Love

Oh this is gorgeous Jules. Love everything about it.

I can reveal that 4 of scallywags were paragons of virtue, but the 5th was a bit of a vandal. Saying no more! xxx

Our servers had the heeby jeebies all weekend Jules, some come, some go and some just bounce back. Supposedly they are working on it, but it so often happens weekends and I think it's when they do their maintenance etc., but just never tell anyone.
