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 & Challenge

Good Morning All

This is the sketch for my Challenge this week, for my Craft Club and for anyone else who would like to join in.

My card which I sent to my eldest son for his birthday on Wednesday this next week.


Another one I made to show the ladies


*********************************
Before lockdown I had quite afew bags of gifts ready for my Craft Club ladies.
But when John and I got the munchies on us we would go upstairs and raid my stash!!!
Consequently, the ladies had a mixture today of Mcvities Gold bars and Rocky bars.
I made these lovely faceted boxes for the Rocky bars

These boxes are like a pill box but with angled sides, all tied with Organza ribbon and a dangle charm added.

I think these are very pretty.

**********************************************
