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.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM

Hi Everyone

I hope you have all enjoyed a good week - it has been a super busy one here .. .. hence being a bit of a blogland stranger.  

Every day is special, but today is extra special and I will be heading to Mum to celebrate her birthday. She is a whole 95 today!  

She shared with me the other day that she was born in a thunderstorm .. .. .. which was weird because we have had thunderstorms this week.  Must be natures way of celebrating her birthday!  LOL!!

I love making cards for her and try to make each one special as I have now reached a stage where deep down I can’t help but wonder if it will be the last one I will get to make for her .. .. but thankfully she is still managing to clock up the years .. .. and long may that continue.

This is my offering for birthday number 95 (which will no doubt be in the bin come Monday) because she gets fed up with things cluttering the place up!  LOL!!  No soppy keepsake boxes in Mum’s world.

This used:

Apple Blossom Designs Die Set:  Perfect Puzzles "Heart"
Backing Papers:  All from Snippet Mountains (this die gobbles them up so nicely)
Sentiment Computer generated and die cut using an old die set from The Works
Ribbon and twine
Corner Rounding Punch
and of course My Trusty Sewing Machine

and that is me for today.  Off to see the birthday girl soon!

Have a good weekend everyone.
