About Me

My photo
Alicante, Spain
Hi. I live in Spain with my partner. I am retired and LOVE it. I love life here but I do miss my family back in the UK, two sons and three sisters and my Mum. Crafting is my life, I do something every single day. In the past it has helped me get through some bad times in my life. One such bad time was when my first grandson died aged just 14 months. He had been born 8 weeks prem but was very healthy and was growing into a beautiful, bonny boy. It was such a shock when the call came. A day never passes when I dont think of him. I am now Nanna again to grand daughter, Hollie, born July 2012, and Tess born March 2016. This is my younger son and his partner. I now have another Grandson, Noah, born Nov 2013 to my elder Son and they have 3 daughters Aurora, born March 2015 and Arabella, born August 2017 and Arianna born 2019. Thanks for visiting and I hope you enjoy my makes. Please leave a comment so that I know you have visited me. I love reading them all. xxxx

Cards from Cards

Good Morning All

The other day I was clearing out some boxes from the spare bedroom wardrobe and I came across a big box of both used and new cards (John Next Door gave them to me before he left).
Afew of the used ones had really nice bits on that I thought I could cut out and make toppers.
So here is three cards I made from them
This is the remainder of the printed sheet from the card I showed on Tuesday.

This paper was free in a magazine my sister gave me.
I added some parchment flowers to the corners.

This paper, again, is what I printed and I thought it matched the tulips on the topper perfectly.

So it just goes to show, dont throw stuff away, see what you can make with it.

We are going to stay with one of my Craft Ladies tonight, Jen.
We are going to see Paul Young and Jamie Moses in a band called  Los Pacaminos at Villa Martin.
Jen has booked a table at an Indian restaurant for 6 of us, I think her sister is joining us too.
I'm really looking forward to it as Jamie used to play with Queen and I have seen him many times with Brian May.
I met him too at a Queen Convention when he was playing there too, he is a guitarist by the way

I had no idea you were a Queen fan Wendy, me too and went to several of their concerts and also the charity one at Wembley after Freddie died which was awesome with so many different artists. Also met Brian May once - at Harrods of all places in one of the restaurants. Have you seen the movie?

I digress, three pretty cards and especially drawn to the first.
