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.

Decoupage Delights....Wildlife Collection

Here I am again. This card is a design team make for the wonderful company of Decoupage Delights. For the next couple of weeks I will be featuring their wonderful cdrom...The Wildlife Collection. It features a wide ranging collection of wildlife and some stunning card fronts. The cd contains 250 sheets..which includes 50 Quick card makes. One of which is featured above. One of the most wonderful things about the cd is the amount of backing papers..usable for any of your cardmaking needs. I thought for my first card from this collection, I would use this wonderful quick card make. The whole card would fit an A5 card but I cut it down to use on the front of a 6x6 card. The tigers head has been decoupaged. I just loved this amazing picture. I do hope that you will pop over to the Decoupage delights facebook page and take a look at all the other cds that they have..all at a wonderful price. And always keep your eye on the page as they very often have a free download.

A lot has happened since earlier. I actually had a phone call from BT. The gentleman told me that the internet connection was terrible..that since he had been monitoring the connection had dropped out 450 times. I told him I knew..lol. He is due to ring back later...we shall have to see what happens...lol.

The other thing that has happened is that it has started to snow. The mountains are now white. We shall have to see if it continues. I do so want to take the wheelchair out in the snow..lol.

Well the coffee is now waiting...Sparkle has just made me a brew. It's chicken curry for dinner tonight and roast dinner tomorrow. I do like to be organised..lol. So until tomorrow..take care and happy crafting.
