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.

MONDAY'S MALE

Hi Everyone

Happy Monday . .. . I hope your week has got off to a good start.

A super busy weekend here on the wedding front .. .. but this evening I have had chance for a little play and have come up with this creation which I am taking over to the Penny Black Saturday Challenge where the theme is "anything goes" along with the optional choice of "use some scraps".  Well I certainly have more than my fair share of those!  LOL!!!

So here we go:




This used:

Image:  Penny Black "4082H" To Cake Moment
Sentiment:  DigiStamp Boutique "It's Your Birthday"
Backing Papers:  Nitwit Collection "Farmhouse Collection"
Nestabilities:  Classic Square Dies
Ebay Circle Dies
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
ProMarkers
Twine
Glamour Dust
Black fineliner and White Gel Pen

and that is all for today.

I am hoping to be able to pull in a teeny, tiny make tomorrow.  There is a bit of a world shortage of them here at the moment.
