Coming down out of the freezing sky with its depths of light, like an angel, or a Buddha with wings, it was beautiful, and accurate, striking the snow and whatever was there with a force that left the imprint of the tips of its wings — five feet apart — and the grabbing thrust of its feet, and the indentation of what had been running through the white valleys of the snow — and then it rose, gracefully, and flew back to the frozen marshes to lurk there, like a little lighthouse, in the blue shadows — so I thought: maybe death isn’t darkness, after all, but so much light wrapping itself around us — as soft as feathers — that we are instantly weary of looking, and looking, and shut our eyes, not without amazement, and let ourselves be carried, as through the translucence of mica, to the river that is without the least dapple or shadow, that is nothing but light — scalding, aortal light — in which we are washed and washed out of our bones.

Jiggery Makery.....I need a Valentine


Here I am again with another design team make made for the wonderful Jiggery Makery. I thought that this lady would be the perfect card to send to your valentine. I would send it if I had someone but I don't..lol. I have given up on ever finding my soul mate...I think that I'm just too much for a normal male and I've definitely of an age where I just can't be bothered..lol. I think that I would find be nice all the time too much to handle. At least my cats don't mind what mood I'm in..as long as they get fed at regular intervals..they're happy..lol. And the other reason for sending this card would be the hope that I had a figure like the lady above..she would definitely have a valentine..probably waiting with chocs flowers and lots of other lovely things. I coloured this image with my promarkers and did enjoy deciding what colour her outfit. Why not pop over to the Jiggery Makery face book page and take a look at all the other wonderful creations that other members have made.

I'm still being harassed by the cats..they don't seem to want to give it up..lol.I'm going to be going downstairs in a minute to prepare dinner and then it can be ready to go later. I will be confusing the cats because they think the minute that I come back upstairs they think it's food time. I just thought it would be nice to go and cook it early and then perhaps later will do some colouring. I have a job lot of cards to make as well over the weekend..I like to have a pile of work for the weekend..sad I know but at least it keeps me busy.I have a friend calling later so I will have to have words with the cats about good behaviour...knowing as always that they won't listen to me.

Well the coffee is calling and then it will be time to go down and bake. I hope that you all have a fabulous weekend and especially that you have a lovely Valentines Day. So until next time..take care and happy crafting.
