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

Outlawz Twisted and ABAC DT

 Hi

Outlawz Twisted challenge this month is

Leaves, Pumpkins Fall Colours.

As I didn't have anything Pumpkin in my stash I turned to Facebook and a Clipart group I am in and looked for AI images and downloaded these two cute ones.

I used my Clarity Embedders for the first time to make the indented squares in my cards.

******************************************************

Now onto the Anything But A Card challenge

It's On The Door

I made a box and decorated the lid with  a wreath made from little tied bows of wool, a couple of them have tiny bells on.  And in the middle  I added a heart shape with many Christmas words.


I added Christmas ribbon to the corners.
If I had the patience I could make a large one for the door, but it would take alot of time to make all the tiny bows!!

Sunday

 Hi Everyone

I am back to posting on Sundays and we were back at my Craft Group on Friday but it will only be until Christmas as Liz and Paul, who run the shop, have decided to call it a day and sell up or close down.

To be honest I am not sorry, I am sorry for them, but I think my Classes have come to the end.

Anyway, here is my challenge  card, and Bingo chart.

I used Stamping Ink and Stencil.

Or, Stamping Brown and Yellow.

Infact, there are various  lines I could have followed.



I am getting into Christmas  mode and have been making alot of cards and looking for ideas for neighbours  gifts  and getting guft bags ready for all my class ladies too.
Do you make or give gifts to your neighbours ?
Give me some ideas please.

Outlawz Twisted Reminder post today and the theme is The Kings Breakfast Rhyme.


I used the same digital images from my first post and went with Farm cows to make the butter for the Kings bread!!



These images are from Tammy Wetzels on a Facbook group Free Printables.

They are very useful  if you dont have anything in your stash suitable for the theme.
