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

What a beautiful day!!!

The weather here is gorgeous .. .. what a shame it couldn't have been like this for my "happy couple" last Saturday .. .. but never mind I bet they are in Australia now so they won't be bothered!!  LOL!!

To be honest this weather would do me for Summer.

I found some exciting news over at Sketch Saturday when I checked this week's sketch out .. .. I was the lucky winner from last week's challenge and have won a voucher to spend at Simon Says Stamp.  Gosh it is going to be difficult deciding what to spend my prize on .. .. they have masses of Penny Black stamps (and that is before I look at anything else on their vast site).

Anyway, I decided that the little image I coloured last night would work well with this week's sketch so this is what I have created:




This used:

Image:  Stamps by Judith and Heather "R-50-HK" Love-Bugs (mine came from the NEC a couple of years ago but I have found it on 'tinternet in case anyone is interested)
Sentiment:  Pink Petticoat "Tiny Everyday Sentiments"
Backing Papers:  Pink Petticoat "Pinstripes" (printed onto cream card) and the dotted paper is part of the "Isabelline" collection.
X-Cut Flower Punch
X-Cut Corner Rounder Punch
My Trusty Sewing Machine
ProMarkers
Chalk
Adirondacks Ink Pad:  Cloudy Blue
Diamond Stickles
Self Adhesive Pearls

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


It is our first Saturday night in for a few weeks so we are planning a romantic dinner for two (also known as making the most of the dining room table being clear after a wedding stationery collection earlier today) LOL!!!

I hope you all have a great evening.  See you tomorrow with my snippets.

Love
