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.

MERRY KISSMASS!

Hi Everyone

Hope you are having a good day!

Popping in quickly with another festive make which I am taking over to the "As You Like It" Challenge  where they would like to see our "Favourite Christmas Critter" and explain why.

Well I am sure it comes as no surprise that my favourite critters definitely come from Penny Black so it was just a case of deciding between a hedgehog or a mouse.

The hedgehogs won because I enjoy colouring them the most .. .. ..

So cute. Love the little holly sprig. Your letter writing teddy of yesterday is very cute too and I was lucky enough to receive a hand written letter just a few weeks ago. Proof that they do still exist even though they might be rare! xx
