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

Hope your day is going well.

Just whizzing along with a teeny tiny creation I made this morning.   

For anyone new to my blog my teeny tiny creations measure a whole 9cm square.

I am now a few weeks into my "no buying any new design pads" now, and I haven't fallen off the wagon "yet" .. .. .. despite having seen quite a few I would have loved to have added to my collection .. .. ..  so I am not doing too badly.

But I have made a digital design paper purchase (which is allowed).

I was asked for an Art Deco style card by a customer and there was nothing paper wise in my collection that was going to fit the bill .. .. .. but I did find the most gorgeous digital papers on line and I have totally fallen in love with them.  They print so beautifully and the colours are super scrummy.

This used:

Digital design paper collection from "Digiform Studios" via Etsy called 3D Art Deco 
The background was simply a black polkadot download from Pink Petticoat printed onto thin turquoise card (sadly Pink Petticoat is no longer trading)
Memory Box Dies: "98261" Kaleidoscope Butterfly and "98262" Moonlight Butterfly
Ribbon
Glitter Card
Flat Backed Pearls
My Trusty Sewing Machine
We R Memory Keepers Envelope Score Board
Embossing Folder (which I think was a magazine freebie many, many years ago).

I am sharing this with the "Little Red Wagon Challenge" where the theme this week has been to include an envelope either alongside a card or as part of a card.  Still a few hours left if you fancy playing along.

This obviously isn't the card I made for my customer, I am simply using up some of the snippets I was left with.
