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.

BEE HAPPY

Hi Everyone

I hope you have had a lovely day .. .. .. the sunshine made an appearance in my home town so it was  washing on the line today!!  Yay!!  I love the smell of outdoor dried washing.  (Yes, I am very easy to please and keep happy) LOL!! 

Many thanks for your comments and emails on my post of yesterday where I was querying if anyone else was having problems with their "reading list" when using blogger.  It seems it is a problem for everyone and not just me.  

When things go wrong I always wonder if it is something I have accidentally done to my settings somewhere .. .. .. but thankfully this time it is nothing to do with me.

Today I have a cheerful little share which uses just one image from a set of 24 which I purchased via Etsy.  So expect more bee cards going forward.  

So this is my first play:


This used:

Image:  Whimsical Bee Clipart Bundle - NesaDesignCo
Sentiment:  Computer Generated
Backing Papers:  Bee-lightful Collection - Nitwits 
Cotton Ribbon snippet
Corner Rounding Punch
My Trusty Sewing Machine

I also added a bit of Glamour Dust to the bee's wings, but it isn't showing up too well in my photograph.

So that is me for today.  I will hopefully catch you again soon.

A delightful card with the happy little bee - love it. Perfect papers used as well. Sunny here but on the chilly side considering we were roasting last week. Good old British weather.

Hi Jules,
No it's not just you regarding your reading list as mine has gone to pot as well. One minute it is showing cards from 1 hour ago then cards from 6 days ago - very weird. I reckon Mr Blogger has been on the Wine!! LOL! Either that or he's been to Sarn's playhouse and had some refreshments! ;-)
I absolutely love your cheerful bee card and those images are just so cute.
Hope you have a wonderful weekend and manage to squeeze in some crafty time.
Love and hugs
Eve xx

What a cute little image, just adorable and I love the brown and gold hues. It is funny how we always blame ourselves when things go wrong. My reading list has been very weird for a while now. Thanks for your little email yesterday. That was very sweet of you. I am getting myself together again now, and am doing OK. I hope it lasts! xx
