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.....Vintage Moments


Todays cards are all design team makes for the wonderful company of Decoupage Delights. I think that today seems to be a celebration of large hats. As most of you know, I do have a bit of a thing for hats, especially the Edwardian ones..large and covered with flowers, feathers and all other delicious things. As much as I try to turn my bedroom into an Edwardian bower..the cats are determined to prevent me..lol. I try to turn my dressing table into a collection of silver topped bottle and dishes of jewellery, with flowers at every turn  and then the cats arrive. Flowers and jewellery are carried round the house, bottles and dishes are knocked off and before you know it..everything is on the floor and the dressing table is bare..lol


Little do they know that there are plans afoot. I have had a huge lock put on the door and once the new bed arrives...an actual Edwardian one..they are going to find themselves locked out in the day.
I feel that there will be a lot of sulking cats..lol.


I hope that you will pop over to the Decoupage Delights face book page and take a look at all the cds that are available. It won't be long until the new cd is released..personally I can't wait.
Well the coffee is calling and then it will be time to do some more filling of the new cupboard. I am being very strict with myself and only putting in boxes that have been sorted. This afternoon I'm hoping to sort out the shelves by my chair and what I don't use all the time will be sorted and put in the cupboard. Even though my friend Pretty said he had never seen so much glitter..I have managed to shock myself at the range I have...dry,ultra fine, tinsel, wet...and I think nearly every colour available..lol Just as well that I love the stuff. So until next time..take care and happy crafting.
