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

Bits & Bobs

 Good Morning All

A couple of card I made with Tina Cox on a Zoom meeting afew weeks ago.

This one was teaching how to make a look alike gemstone.

Not too bad for my 1st time.  I had some good comments on Facebook within the group.



These are both big cards, 8x8 as I have been using my parchment and designer papers that I have die cut the middles out of, so using them as mats and layers.


This one was going back to basics and using various plates.
The plates used are all included in the starter kit from Clarity.


-------------------
I have been doing alot of crocheting too and this cardi I am really happy with





I know it doesn't match my pants but I was only trying it on for photo purposes!!




I am now making another one for one of my Craft Club ladies.









Here is my Shrug, I may have blogged this before.

Excuse my PJ's

I have also been playing with Alcohol inks, this is my 1st time doing this but I loved it and they would look great for matting parchment onto.









Thanks for visiting, I do appreciate all your lovely comments.

You did a great job! Hope your doing well, We are having snow here in Indiana. We are also going to have Ice in a few days. Not a fan of Winter. Stay Safe!
