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.

JB-Crafting Supplies....Pinflair Kits


Today's creations are design team makes for the wonderful JB-Crafting Supplies. For the team over the past few weeks, I have been lucky enough to be able to work with some of the Pinflair Kits that are available from Julie at JB-CS.


All of the kits, take only an afternoon to make. What I find really nice is that you can pick whatever fabric you would like to use to coordinate with your own taste. And Julie has a wonderful selection of fabrics...so good in fact..I never know which I want to work with first..choosing is just so hard..lol.



This weeks make is the tissue box cover..which I covered with this fantastic strawberry fabric. If you pop over to the JB-Crafting Supplies Blog..I have blogged each kit, step by step. Each kit comes with full instructions but sometimes it's easier to see what is supposed to happen..and if I think that I can add anything useful..I do.

 The sun is shining here in the mountains..but goodness knows how long it will last..lol. All is very quiet in the cottage as well..all the cats have gone to sleep. I am tempted to go and wake them all..just to make them feel as I do in the middle of the night when they bounce on me..lol. When I go to bed at night I am finding Nosey is all ready and waiting. It seems to me that he eats his supper and then then toddles along to bed.He has such a rapture whenever I turn up..it does make me smile.

Well the coffee is calling as normal and then I have some cards to finish. I have just spied Gannie who is stretched fully out, asleep, on the couch. All the kittens are growing so quickly..I will take some new photos this week, so you can see. So until next time..take care and happy crafting.
