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

Old Stash

 Good Morning All

I was watching You Tube videos at the weekend and I watched one from Clarity with Paul and  he was using a die similar to one I had, an old one.  Ok, I thought, start using some old stash  so off I went to the Craftroom.

Paul used double sided sticky sheets and glittered the background which looked very effective too.

So many ways to use it so I'm sure there will be more to come.


I'm using the cards I make a present to put in boxes that I make for the charities to use for Raffle prizes.

Two Clarity die cards

 Good Morning All

Here are a couple of cards I made last week using I die I have had for quite  while that I bought from Clarity.

I used the same backing paper but different colour cardstock.  Quite quick to make once decided what card to use.



I think I prefer the black one.
I,m quite enjoying my card making again.
Do you find you have spells on different crafts?
I am still crocheting lots of hats and cowls for the homeless and baby hats too.
I have found a  lady that  know other ladies that help charities that need these items so she takes them all from me which is great.

Dies Challenge Day 45 & Just For You Card & Clarity Die

Good Morning All

Just For You
Another fairly simple card with one die set and one Embossing folder.
I used yellow card which I dont use very often, but it does look pretty.
I cut the die in  white and Holographic card.
I've just noticed now, looking at the pic that it is not set in the middle correctly.
  Errrrrrr, will the recipient notice?????


Dies Used  -----
89.   Creative Expressions Ornate Ovals -  CED5414 Just for You 

Emboss Folder Used   ------
18.   Creative Expressions EF-018  Art Deco Fanfare A4
 ************************

When Clarity Had a sale on in January, I could not resist this die at 50% off, daft not to really, dont you think????
I cut it in black and mounted onto some of Clarity's Rainbow River paper. These are stunning pads which I bought for parchment work but are perfect for these type of dies.
The die cuts into the paper so I cut it square and rounded the corners. Stuck to the designer paper then stuck that onto more black card so it looks like there are afew frames.

Dies Used ------
90.   Clarity Fresh Cut Die ACC-DI-3.727-44  Floral Frame


Wow, upto 90 already and still quite afew  to go!!!!!


while I have been doing this challenge I have been doing abit of organising too.
I decided to put all my stamps in files.
All the freebies from Magazines are filed in an A4  Lever Arch file and these are my smaller ones filed in A5 Lever Arch files.


All labelled, all nice and neat.
