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

H Everyone

Happy Saturday!!!  I hope you have been blessed with glorious sunshine today.  

I saw one of my lovely brides today who gets married in a few weeks time and we were both hoping the weather would be equally as beautiful for her special day.  I so enjoy listening to all the lovely plans the couples make .. .. and the little special touches unique to each and every one of them.  It gets me "all loved up" LOL!!!  (Not that it takes much for that to happen .. .. I am probably the soppiest person on the planet!).

Last week I didn't get chance to play along with Sketch Saturday . .. . but as I have a list of orders as long as my arm I thought I would use their fabby sketch this week to help me cross this one off my list.




This used:

Image:  Hero Arts "G5311" Silhouette Spray
Sentiment:  Computer Generated using fonts "Benjamin Becker Extra Light" and "Monterey"
Backing Papers:  First Edition Papers "Boho Chic"
Joy Craft Dies:  Curved Edged Flowers
Gold Embossing Powder
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Diamond Stickles
Pearls, ribbon from my stash box

and if you fancy playing along here is the sketch I worked to (isn't it a beauty!!).


Have a lovely rest of the weekend everyone .. .. and don't forget to slap the sun-cream on!!!

Love

Hi Jules, beautiful card love that stamp. You have chosen a lovely colour combination and the sewing machine has been out. We don't need sun screen today it has cooled down quite a bit again. We don't get the sun for any length of time up here or we get a cold wind along with the sunshine.

Lovely colours, I love the shades of apricots, peach, guava, salmon, coral... This card brings those glorious colours to my mind (maybe because that is what I wore earlier today in hope that the sun would linger.....it didn't!)
