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.

JB-Crafting Supplies...It's all birds


Today's cards are all design team makes for the wonderful company of JB-Crafting Supplies. The top two cards feature Daryl the quirky turkey brought to us crafters by the fantastic team over at Hobby Art. Both have been coloured with my promarkers. Every time I look at them, they make me smile. I would send either of these to my friends who are vegetarian..in fact I've already had orders using the one below..they loved the idea of a turkey with attitude. If you need anything for your crafting, please pop over to JB-Crafting Supplies and Julie will be able to source it for you..saying that she has lots of crafting goodies in stock.


My third card is also a stamp from Hobby Art. It's called Otto owl. I bought this stamp in memory of Henry and thought that I would make some Christmas cards with it,


The weather here in the mountains today is up and down..wet and dry. So the cats are in and out depending on the rain. At the moment the sun is trying to shine but goodness knows how long it will last. I'm sitting here feeling slightly sorry for myself. I feel as if I have a cartoon nose. It's throbbing and both my eyes are slightly swollen. The event that caused this was 2 and a half stone cat..named and shamed as Jeffrey..getting involved in an argument which resulted in him landing straight at my nose. The consequence was me having a nose bleed or should I say two. My nose was bleeding on the inside and he had managed to scratch the outside as well. I have had an headache ever since and still feel like I should have a cartoon nose..such does it throb..lol. Both my eyes are swollen and I look as if I have partied hard for quite a while. Ever since the accident happened, Jeffrey has been trying to make friends...I think that he's realised that he hurt me and keeps coming for a fuss. After the accident happened all the cats have been over to see me..lol..it was very busy in bed last night, with the tribe checking that I was getting enough fuss. So plans for the move round in the parlour have been changed until later on..by which time I will have all my tablets in my system and hopefully feel more like doing it.

Well the coffee is calling and then I've got some work to get on with. I will be back shortly with another design team make..so until then..take care and happy crafting
