Cherish The Memory - Design Team Announcement...

Just a very quick post to share my news.

I've just joined the Cherish The Memory design Team.

Here's a little bit about them...

The idea for cherish the memory began after dear friends had a beautiful baby boy called Oliver. Sadly following complications after his birth, Oliver fell asleep. This was the most devastating time for them both.

Through his parents' grief, and the upset at having to organise a service for their first much longed for child, one thing came to light, there a lots of gifts sites but not a lot of ideas for sympathy gifts and cards for babies and children for family and friends to send at this difficult time.

So an idea began to form for a unique card and gift site with a very personalised trusted service, since we formed in July 2014 we have been asked if our gifts can be used for other occasions, in response to this our shop has grown to now include cards and gifts for all of those special occasions in life.

We offer bespoke gifting and handmade cards, all wrapped in beautiful tissue ready to send direct or to treat yourself.

Isn't that just a beautiful concept?

Art from the Heart...

I can't wait to show you just how truly lovely Karen's designs are.

Why not take a look at her Etsy shop and see for yourself?

8x8 Display Piece, Wedding, Birds & Butterflies

It's a warm/hot sunny week here this week.

Our garden is playing host to several sparrow families right now.

We saw the same last year...

The gathering of nesting supplies, followed by what feels like a very short time later groups of young all sticking together as they learn to fend for themselves.

What we find most comical is the 'fluttering of feathers' that fledglings do as they display their "I'm hungry" signals to their parents. Some of these 'fluff puffs' (as I like to call them) look so much bigger than their parents that it's quite obvious they are just taking liberties.

They really should just jolly well go feed themselves!

My easel backed display piece also echoes a nature theme...

It's a style I'm learning to adjust to, but it doesn't sit well in my comfort zone - and it certainly doesn't photograph very well!

But commissioned work is paid work - so if I'm asked to do this style then that's what I'll do!

Wherever you are, I hope life is treating you kindly...
