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.........Christmas Ladies



Todays makes are design team makes for the wonderful team over at Jiggery Makery. For today I went on a hunt and looked through previous cards that I have made for a Jiggery Makery Christmas. These ladies above and below are my favourites for lots of different reasons. The one above is my all time favourite Christmas makes and now lives in Southport with a customer of mine. She loved it when she first saw it on my blog and now it comes out at Christmas in her house. The lady tells me that her husband loves it too and is very good in parting with the kisses...lol

If you get the chance why not pop over to the Jiggery Makery page and take a look at all the wonderful designs. I love the glamour that Adele brings to her designs and I just adore deciding on what colours to do the outfits. I think that I have figure envy all the time with these designs..lol






I have to admit to being worn out today. I had a really bad night and when I did get up I arrived into the middle of kitten chaos..lol. As soon as I opened my mouth..all four furry terrorists charged at me..lol. I am having to get a man to block the stairs off as Nosey keeps going and thinking about going down..it's not going to happen. He keeps standing on the top step looking down and I can see the cogs rolling. I accept that I'm not good on my legs and the thought of chasing them all over the house is so not going to happen. They are now all eating and goodness me they go through it. My shopping order this week seems to be cat food with a bit of human food included..lol.

Well the coffee is calling and then it will be time to start the dinner. We are having lamb crumble tonight with mashed potatoes and cabbage. I just love cabbage...any sort, any way. In fact we had it last night with a Sunday dinner and it was so nice..I want it again..lol.I hope that the weather is being kind with you..it's just started to rain again here and the wind has been ferocious. As I always say..it's just a crafting day. So until tomorrow...take care and happy crafting.
