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.

Decoupage Delights....Looking Back



Today's cards are all design team makes, made for the wonderful Decoupage Delights. I was looking through my files and decided that today I would share some of the cards that I have made for them previously. The card above is one of my all time favourites and I find myself making many versions of this card. I love using the pinks and roses, lace and pearls.





All the cards above, to me showcase all the things that I love about the Decoupage Delights cdroms. It won't be long until the new cdrom is released and I can't wait. If you get the chance, please pop over to the Decoupage Delights facebook page and take a look at what's available.

I have to admit to feeling really shady at the moment. I have opened the window for the first time this year and I'm just hoping that the kittens don't notice..lol. I don't know where they are in the cottage at the moment..I'm hoping that they are all asleep somewhere. If you had seen the way that they were chasing each other round and round this morning..you couldn't help but laugh. They did get shouted at for knocking all my water colour crayons all over the floor. I've managed to find all but 2..no doubt they will be the ones that I need. They must have run off with those 2. I've just had to shut the window because Simon just noticed that it was open. He is now stood by me complaining that he couldn't go out with the big boys..lol. The truth is that he doesn't have good eyes and will fall off many things for no good reason other than his eyes are off. I knew this was going to be a problem when he was born, so I decided to keep him because I at least know how to deal with him. It's as if he has no peripheral vision..he can be walking on the worktop and will end up falling off..and that's a quite wide thing. He's not good at jumping either. But at least he's loved and I know I can put up with the madness.

Well the coffee is calling and I will be back later with another design team make. I hope that you are having a good day and that the sun is shining with you. According to the weather forecast it's going to turn very cold at the weekend, so make the most of the sunshine if you have some. So until later..take care and happy crafting
