The Heart Cat (Hjärtekatten) is a Swedish Craft Project that I joined when it started this spring.

Summer time Index Cards
The weather today has been lovely, and summer is showing up on my Index Cards too. They are filled with the lightness and smells of summer. I’ve just uploaded these (the cards from 11-18 of June) to my flickr photo album and wanted to share them in all their summer time feel. Which one do […]

June, the empress of the year
