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

Traditional Parchment meets Groovi

 Good Morning All

I may have told you a while ago about one of my past Craft Ladies passing away and before she passed, she had asked her daughter to get in touch with me to dispose of her craft stash.  Anything sold she asked that the money be donated to the British Legion.

I sold some stuff to my craft ladies, 215 euro worth.

The last few boxes  with allsorts of bits and bobs went last week.  

Well Nancy enjoyed  original parchment work, that is how we originally met.

And in her stash were some pieces of work part made so I decided to finish them and add to charity box.

Nancy had made the frames so I mounted onto cards, added butterflies and sentiments. Strategically placed butterfly and flower to hide a minor mistake!!!!!



Two beautiful cards for the box.

How lovely to utilise some of the ladies work Wendy. First time I ever saw it was many years ago, a lady used to go into a small local stationers/craft shop (in the days we still had some locally) and I was always pleased if she was there as she always brought work with her.
