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

Sunday

 Good Morning

The challenge I set my Craft Group on Friday was

Squares

Again, my card was made using scraps.

Punched squares for the corners and strips of waste for the background and the sentiment topper is from a Tonic sheet.


I nice easy theme I think.

I have shown these cards on Facebook.  I used last years calendar  for these cute doggy images.  Of course, these cards all went in a homemade box for the animal charity to raffle.






Here is a lovely quote I saw on the internet.

And this leads me on to my friend Val, who passed away in December.  She had been ill for quite a while and I still can't believe that she has gone.  She was my best friend over here and we did lots of crafty stuff together, infact, thats how we met, at a Craft Fayre.

Her daughter asked me to help clear her craft stuff and I have sold most of it and raised over  480euro for Animal charities, causes very close to Val's heart.

I’m so sorry about your friend Val, it can leave such a big hole in our hearts. what an amazing thing you have done to raise all that money for her favourite charities. I also wanted to say what a great way to use your snippets, making squares and strips to create the background of your card xxx
