Hi Everyone
Happy Tuesday! I hope your day has gone well.
We had to revert back to super early alarms in the House of Hearts this morning as it was Mr Heart's first day back at work after the Christmas/New Year break (boo hoo!) - a bit of a shock to the system that's for sure! So today was my first "home alone" day for over a fortnight .. .. which mean't that I could hit the ground running and make serious headway into that crafty "must do list".

So today was my first "home alone" day for over a fortnight .. .. which mean't that I could hit the ground running and make serious headway into that crafty "must do list".
Part of the list called for a stack of teeny, tiny makes .. .. these are my 3.5" square makes which I love making. It is surprising how much you can squeeze onto them .. .. and I love that they make use of some of those smaller images that are in my collection which can sometimes look lost on my normal sized cards (not that my normal ones are "that" big). I personally feel quite uncomfortable working with big cards .. .. for me it is a case of "the smaller the better" LOL!!.
So here we go with my favourite of today's teeny tiny makes (and I have scheduled a couple more for future weeks) .. .. another tick on the new year's resolution list .. .. schedule posts where possible for the days when there is no time to make something new!!

Lots of other projects worked on today so I am quite chuffed with how today has gone .. .. not very often I say that!
But tomorrow is all about weddings as a few signed proofs dropped through the letterbox today which all need working on.
A lovely card and such beautiful colours too.

It always takes a bit of time to settle back into normal routine after Christmas, I've been feeling a bit all over the place this week!
ReplyDeleteI make a lot of 10cm cards which is a similar size and I love them too, this is very sweet

Such a beautiful card Jules, I don't like very big either, and they're more expensive to send ! So glad, that you had a creative day ! Hugs, Enny
ReplyDeleteBeautifully designed card Jules, lovely muted colours, Kate x x
ReplyDeleteA teeny tiny masterpiece Jules. I am marvelling at how your stitching, on that teeny tiny circle, is so even...incredible!! xx
ReplyDeleteLike you Jules, I am not a lover of big cards but I always go for 6"x6" as my favourite. Your card is such a lovely design, I just might have a go smaller myself!! Hugs, Carol S.xx
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous! Jules, I've been trying to reach you via your email in your profile, but it doesn't seem to work. I was wondering if you would like to guest for me over at my new challenge? Could you email me from the link on my blog please if you'd like to? Fingers and toes crossed, Jo x
