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.

TEENY TINY TUESDAY

Hi Everyone

.. .. .. so now in the blink of an eye another week disappeared and a shiny new one appeared yesterday.  I wonder what this one is going to hold?

I am seriously hoping that the whole of this year isn't going to disappear at this fast a pace!  I can remember a week at school lasting way way longer. 

There was a chance for me to have a stint in my little craft pod today.. .. .. and below is one of the creations I made.  A whole 9cm square, these little cards are popular with customers and recipients alike.  I usually just add a blank insert inside so that they can be used for a variety of occasions. Some have sentiments on the front but not all. 

I find it surprising how many folk like the teeny tiny cards, and when I query why they invariably say "because they are just so cute and small and get to stand in front of any other cards" people might receive.  Some folk attach them to gifts they are giving instead of a label.

This used:

Image:  Artcult .. .. a great source of images, but sadly I can no longer see the one I used here in the store - it was called Sweet Bird Cages.  I can see it as a collection of circular images but no longer a square set.  (They re-size beautifully too).

I must admit I don't really like to see birds in cages .. .. in real life or in pictures .. .. but this one looks like he has a little escape hatch so he is free to fly to his hearts content .. .. which I feel all birds should be able to do .. .. otherwise what is the point of having wings?!?!?!?

Hopefully catch you again soon.
