About Me

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

Christmas bags for Crafty Ribbons

Good Morning All

It is my turn to post for Crafty Ribbons Design Team.
I had bought these paper gift bags when I was back in the UK earlier this year as I thought they would be good for decorating.
They are made from plain brown paper so I stamped some and sprayed some on the back.












These are stamped using various stamps from JND sets.


To decorate, I recycled some Christmas cards from last year.
And, of course, used the gorgeous Gros grain printed ribbon from Crafty Ribbons HERE
It also helps strengthen the tops of the bags.




This one uses a decoupage pad from Joanna Sheen

Very happy with these and they will all definately get used at Christmas.
