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

Crafty Friends & MAWTT Challenges

 Good Morning All

Welcome to the New Year of Challenges with Crafty Friends and Moving Along With The Times.

I will kick off with Crafty Friends with a theme of



For me that means Baby cards and I have made two, one for a Boy and one for a Girl.

For this one I stenciled the background and added an LOTV topper cut with an Oval die from CE.


Again this is a topper from LOTV matted onto some lovely pink embossed card my friend gave me.
The sentiment banner I have had for years.


***************
Now onto Moving Along With The Times Challenge where the theme is
Use Kraft Card
 I made this card using a Stencil from Clarity stamp.
I didn't ink it I used a fine liner pen then I coloured using Nova Metallic  Markers.  Then I heat embossed the circle sentiment.

Please pop over to the challenge blogs to see the rest of the DT work.

A nice, thought provoking quote I saw on Instagram.

Hi Wendy,
such wonderful cards and really brilliant designs.
Love the embossed background on the pink one and the images are so sweet.
A super kraft design for the MAWTT and wonderful stamping and colouring.
I agree we do take such things for granted and that is such a wonderful thought provoking item found on Instagram.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
