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....Talk to the Hand..lol



Todays card is a design team make for the fabulous team over at Jiggery Makery. I just love the attitude of this lady from the Jiggery Makery store.I love the 'talk to the hand' attitude and the fact all that you can see is her back and of course the red soles of her expensive shoes..lol. I just wish that I had a figure like hers. I love working for Adele over at Jiggery Makery because she always gives her ladies such fabulous figures and can express attitude with a few lines. It is a talent that I'm very envious of.

For this card, I coloured the lady with my promarkers and then cut her out. I was determined that she should wear a black dress with black shoes with a red sole. I was reading about the shoes and thought that it would be perfect for a lady with attitude. I covered my card with black card and then added red borders to which I added some peeloffs. I didn't add a greeting on purpose...I thought that this would be a great card to send to a friend who was having a hard time and perhaps just needed reminding just how fabulous she really is.

I'm quite relieved that I finally managed to blog with all the help from BT. It has got so bad with the connection that every time I see a BT advert, I'm ready to throw something at the television..lol. No matter how much work I have ready..it doesn't make any difference when the BT connection is pants.I'm so sick of telephoning them..I'm just praying that we will get super fast sometime this century..lol.

Well the coffee is calling and I'm going to have to post this..in the hope that I can do it. If you get the chance, why not pop over to the Jiggery Makery page and take a look at all the fabulous ladies. Sparkle has just arrived so hopefully he will put the kettle on. All the cats are sulking because it's raining...they are all sorting out their places to spend the afternoon. There's quite an argument over a small space where there is a quilt..there are lots of other places they could go, but for some reason this quilt is a favourite at the moment. So until next time..BT willing..take care and happy crafting.
