FAB NEWS TUESDAY

Hi Everyone

Happy Tuesday .. .. I hope it is a lovely day full of sunshine for you.

I can't believe that this is my first post for July (although Mr Heart and I did escape for a few days last week)!!  

The month has simply flown by .. .. but judging by the amount of wedding and magazine work that has been completed I'm surprised it isn't August already!

Plus, amongst everything else, more excitement entered the House of Hearts when I had a wonderful invitation from Fiskars asking if I would consider becoming an Ambassador for them.  I certainly didn't need to think about it for very long .. .. I love every Fiskars product I own .. .. and there are a fair few in my collection.

Everything I have ever purchased is still going strong .. .. .. .. .. even my very first small Fiskars guillotine which must be at least 15 years old and has been used nearly every day .. .. ..perhaps it would be of interest in a crafting museum now LOL!!

Anyway, I received a fabby box of goodies to see what I could create with them and this is my very first offering which uses a lovely word punch  .. .. ..




This used:

My lovely Fiskars Intricate Shape Love Punch
Backing Papers:  First Edition Papers "New Leaf"
Sentiment:  Pink Petticoat (but sadly no longer available)
Ribbon and Iridescent Cord
Charm
Glamour Dust
My Trusty Sewing Machine

The punch, as regular visitors will know, is right up my street .. .. it is as if Fiskars know me already! LOL!!

Taking my photographs for posting I had a little brainwave for my next wedding fayre.  Lots of "love words" punched and sprinkled across my tables.

So there we go.  I hope you like my first Fiskars offering.

Catch you again soon.

  9. Hi Jules great to see a post from you....I always have a peek to see if you've been creating. I'm back crafting at the moment and I've been blogging too...I obviously still have my off days but that's to be expected. I love love love this card - excuse the pun hahaha. I've just picked up a similar die at the range today so might just steal your idea for my SIL anniversary next month. Watch this space dear. Many many congratulations on your very well deserved new position. Mind you I've no idea how you're going to fit it in lol. Thank you for always taking the time to check on me in your busy schedule. Much love Lea xxx

  12. Congratulations, Jules! Fiskars has such a good name. Their products are so reliable. I have a pair of Wilkinsons, now Fiskars, dressmaking scissors that are now 43 years old. The 'love' punch is fabulous and so is your card. It didn't take me too long to spot the heart today. I like your idea for weddings too. Hugs, Elizabeth xx

    PS: you're not the only noticing that time just flies; I keep losing whole weeks too :)
