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.

HAVE A HAPPY DAY

Hi Everyone

Earlier than ever today with a make I made at the crack of dawn today.

I normally try to start my day with a quick catch up of your lovely blogs because I know once the day starts the visiting gets pretty much impossible to do.  But today I needed to hit the ground running so that meant no blog visiting .. . .. sorry :-(

Lots of makes needed in record time today and here is one of them.




This used:

Sentiment:  Pink Petticoat "Tiny Everyday Sentiments"
Backing Papers:  Papermania "Rose Garden"
Nestabilities:  Classic Squares and Mega Squares
Sizzix Die:  "654901" Flower Daisies #2
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Adironkack Lights:  Pink Sherbet
Brad, ribbon and charm from my stash box

I had to smile to myself making this little creation.  I don't know about you but I always find that within pretty much every paper stack there is what I class as the odd "ugly paper".  Well believe it or not the pink background paper here was the "ugly paper" in this pad .. .. until I used it.  Now I quite like it!!  LOL!!  Just goes to show you don't know until you try to use it.

Baby boy is sleeping at ours tonight so that we can dismantle his bed and get all the remaining things packed up tonight ready for a 9.00am collection of the "big stuff" from his flat tomorrow and the final clean up.  Nearly there!!!  Can't wait for him to be settled in his new place and for all the things we have been storing here to make their way back to him.

So back to the makes for me.

Tomorrow I will do a scheduled post of the new home card I have made for us to give and can only say .. .. I'll see you when I see you.

Love

Love the daisy flower and your pretty heart charm Jules...you are right about papers I have a little pile of 'ugly' ones as you call them but perhaps I will see them in a different light now.

Hi Jules, I'm the new kid on the block or should I say blog having only joined last week.

I've been following you for a good while now and adore your cards and style. Your card today is another stunning one and I know exactly what you mean about the 'ugly' papers but as you say it's amazing how different the ugly ones look when teamed with everything else.

Glad I can pop along in blogland now (still a novice though) and hope the moving process goes well tomorrow for you all.

Stunning card, love love love the flower and I know exactly what you mean about 'ugly paper' and how they can turn round.
Had a mail from PB stamps today to say they were sorry but the stamp would not be arriving as it was discontinued, ah well I have gone this long without it I am sure I can manage with out it.

Thanks so much for your help on that though.
