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...Dancing Queens

Today's cards are all design team makes for the wonderful Jiggery Makery. All these fabulous ladies are available to buy from Jiggery Makery and all created with the pen of the very talented Adele. What strikes me about Adele's work is the fact that she manages to give all the ladies very distinct personalities.
If you get the chance why not pop over and take a look at all the wonderful ladies. While you're there, check out the fabulous creations that the other ladies on the design team have made. They are all so talented and have their own variations. It always amazes me that we can all be given the same image..yet we will all create something very different. I think that's why it's so good having a team all coming up with their own designs. Sometimes I can look at a a creation and that will spur me on to create something very different.
All the ladies above, I can imagine that they're all into dancing but in very different eras. First the 50's then the 60's and perhaps the last lady is from recent years. With the love of Strictly Come Dancing in the last few years...it's great being able to make very different cards for dancing friends whatever their favourite type of music.

As you've probably guessed BT were not playing last night. It seems to me that on a Friday as all the second homers start to arrive..my internet just gets worse and worse.It annoys me so much..I'm always so near to throwing the computer through the window..but luckily for me, there is always a cat in the way..lol

And speaking of the cats..we have been busy altering the pens around. Now Flossie is in a bigger pen, lying on a lovely pink fleece. I'm hoping that the large cupboard will soon be shelved and then finally I will be able to put all my plastic boxes away. I've only been waiting for 20 years..lol. Hopefully the cats will not be able to get in once the doors shut properly. I can only live in hope..lol.

Well the coffee is calling and I have a pile of work to do. And a lot to organise. I hope that you will over and take a look at the wonderful Jiggery Makery fb page. I also hope that you all have a fabulous weekend and the weather is kind to you all. So until the next time...take care and happy crafting
