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.

THANK YOU - SO MUCH

Hi Everyone

Happy Thursday!

I hope today has been a good day for you.

No colouring on my card today .. .. just a bit of stitching and distressing:




This used:

Backing Paper:  GCD Studio "Ella Blue"  
Sentiment:  Stampin' Up "Lots of Thanks"
Go Kreate Die:  Wavy Frame #3
Die'sire Die:  Scalloped Tags
Sizix Die:  "658520" Sew Cute
Distress Ink:  Tea Die and Tattered Rose
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Ribbon, Twine and Pearls from my Stash Box

and that is all!!

My beloved Ella Blue paper stack is reducing even more :-(  I am on a mission to use up some of the old paper stacks in my collection but I shall be very sad when this one is finally finished.

Enjoy what is left of your evening everyone.

We are just waiting for the second half of the football.  Mr Heart's team have got to the playoffs .. .. and they are currently winning 2 - 1.  I'm surprised you haven't heard us cheering!! LOL!!!

Hopefully catch you again tomorrow.  

Love
