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

Hello from Leicester

Good Morning All
When this goes Live I should be at John Next Doors after meeting him in Preston at a demo and travelling back to his in Leicester.
We had a good catch up last night and this morning I am helping him prep for a workshop tomorrow.
Then we are meeting Mrs Duck for lunch before I get the train to my younger sons in Corby.

********
I am pulling some older cards from my files while I am away from home.
So here are a couple using the same Groovi plate.

This was before I added the butterfly and stick pin.
I did not quite get the inner square in the centre but I wanted to match the pattern up on each layer of parchment.




Same plate but a different shape and grid work.
The backing paper is some I made using my crafty friend, Jen's Distress Oxides, as I don't have any and I think Jen has nearly every colour!!!!



These are fairly quick cards to make with the Groovi system and I am still enjoying it so that is the main thing.
It also means I can make some beautiful cards my charity box.
