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

Any Season for Allsorts

Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge this week is hosted by Tracy Mouse.
She would like to see any of the four seasons.
I chose Summer as this sweet Paintbox Poppet topper just shouted out summer days to me.

I cut an Oval with Clarity Picot Oval die then stamped it with a sentiment and  foliage from JND Butterfly Frames stamp set.
Then I found the sweet seashell charm.
All matted onto Wild Roses embossed card and Gilding polish card.

I think most of us went off with our fishing nets, looking for crabs when we went to the beach.

I have two family birthdays today so this card will have been sent off for one of those.

This is the prize on offer this week.

It's a adorable image Wendy, indeed it does reflect Summer days gone by (and Jayne Nestorenko who first introduced them as stamps on TV).

This is right up my street Wendy, I love the paintbox poppets. You've reminded me of them, and I must get my stamps of them out. Gorgeous creation for my theme.
Happy crafting
