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

Friday was my last Craft group for a couple of weeks as we go to Madrid on Thursday for our annual holiday.
We visit Madrid, Cordoba,  Granada and back to Madrid, lots of train travel, which we love.
**************
The challenge was 
Black, White and one other colour.
I went with Gold on these cards as I had afew rolls of Black and Gold Washi tape.
These cards are embossed on my Scoreboard, it doesn't show too good on the pics though.  Very CAS.



*************
The gifts I gave out were little Milk carton boxes tied with organza ribbon with afew sweets inside.

********
Last weeks challenge was a sketch.

*****
We were sat on a terrace bar on Friday night  with Johns son and there was a plant next to me.

The bottom fronds had the most amazing, sort of flowers, they were white and purple.
There was an insect buzzing around it, like a wasp.  There seemed to be juice coming from it.
