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

Charms for Allsorts

Good Morning All

It is my turn to host the Allsorts Challenge this week. 
I have chosen a theme of
CHARMS


Very often my cards start out with something that is lying around on my desk, and this was no different.  The starting point was the New Home Sentiment that I had cut with the free dies I got when I bought my Gemini machine.  Also a piece of card I had coloured using Izinks and brushes.
So I stamped some trees onto the card from a set of Johns stamps and added organza ribbon where I had left a blank stripe.

I added a New Home charm to one ribbon and an Elephant for good luck to the other.
I matted the sentiment onto yellow card so that the colours matched the blue and yellow of the inking.

The prize Sissix is giving this week.

Nice to see you stamping Wendy and a pretty soft background as well. Good theme to get me digging in my long forgotten stash, but I'n not giving the prize, Sizzix is our sponsor.
