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....Fifty Shades


Todays card is a design team make for the fantastic company of Jiggery Makery. I had so much fun designing this dress..I only wish I had the figure to wear something like this. For some reason I wanted to do a grey dress with silver glitter and the thought then came along about the book..50 shades..which gave me the sentiment on the card. For some reason the card seems to have tilted in the photograph..I'm sorry about that..I would have rephotographed but it has already sold..lol I hope who receives this card has a great Christmas!!!

The ladies that Adele has created for Jiggery Makery make the perfect focal point for any card you wish to make. And then you get the great excuse to design the dress of your dreams. The ladies would also make great focal points for cards for the proms that a lot of girls now have. It used to be only in America but now I hear more and more about British Proms. All the ladies I know just love any excuse to splash out on a fantastic dress. So if you are looking to make a glamorous card..just pop over and take a look at the Jiggery Makery facebook page..the other members of the design team have made some wonderful creations.

It's a good day here in the mountains today..so a lot of the cats are outside.I have to say though that the kittens are driving me mad..lol. I have tried to wrap some presents and they just won't leave them alone. I came into the parlour this morning to find 2 of the kittens curled up asleep in my box of presents. As I write they are all playing on the floor..the noise that they can make is unbelievable and who needs cat toys when they have boxes,toilet rolls and newspaper.Shredding seems to be a favourite pass time. Some mornings it looks as if the house has been taken over by Andrex puppies. There will be a trail of loo paper from the bathroom, trailing round and across the landing, ending in the parlour...lol.

Well the coffee is calling and then I will have to go on a hunt for a present that I've put in a safe place and yet have no idea where it is. I'm collecting a lot of work to do over the Christmas..I like to have a few designs on the go..so I can flick between a number at the same time.I will be back later on today with another design team make...so until then..take care and happy crafting
