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

Happy Sunday

Good Morning All

This week I have a sketch for my Craft Club ladies and you too if you want to make a card.



Sketch to follow

**********

Ages ago I bought a lot of gems in different colours

I bought some circular gem holders and then spent ages, and I mean ages, filling them with a good mixture of colours.

Then I made little boxes for each one and wrapped with ribbon.

**************
Now onto last weeks challenge which was to make a card with an image cut into 4 pieces.
I like this one best of the two I made.
This is a stamped image onto inked card.

This is pretty paper cut into 4 equal squares and matted.

And the name drawn was Dawn, so she received a little gift.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Hi Wendy,
