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

A Birthday Book

Good Morning All

I made this Birthday book  as a  gift for Christmas for someone, maybe a Craft Club member.
This is the front.
I used a cereal box and covered it  using 2  12 x 12 paper.
Cut out the letters with an X Cut die and the heart is from a my Craft Club die box.

This is the spine with afew dangle charms added.
The inside is a waterfall design with a flip for each month.
I added afew decorated paperclips for added interest.


I think these are very handy for keeping track of Birthdays.

I use one in a similar vein,
I write in pencil then I can rub out at the end of the year.
I tick when I have made the card then add a note when I have posted it or left at my sisters in Uk for her to post for me.

Hope you like  it , what do you think!

A beautiful book Wendy. I like the idea of making books from cereal boxes and keep quite a few empty ones handy for this purpose. The recipient will love this.
