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

Colouring

 Good Morning

If you follow me on Facebook you may have already seen a couple of these cards.

My friend Eve, from my craft group, was telling me about a course she followed on Claritystamp uk about colouring on parchment.

As I do enjoy colouring I thought I would have a go.

 I looked on You Tube and found a very old video by GeminiCrafts,  Wendy Walters.

Then I  went on Etsy - KCH Digital Design, to buy some floral outline images and found 100 for less than a couple of quid.There is no outline on the flower, just colours so you need a well sharpened crayon too.


 A couple using some inky backgrounds



I'm entering this into Allsorts Challenge 842 - Create your own Background

This one is two backgrounds  -  one from Clarity and one of my pages from my Reverse Colouring book.


Very happy with these and thoroughly enjoyed the colouring.

Colouring

 Good Morning All

After my last post on Wednesday about stamping, I do colour occasionally and here's  some  cards that have been done for a while.

I use Polychromo pencils and find them quite easy to blend. I don't have loads but I  do use them on my  parchment work  too.







More on Sunday for the challenge.

These are  the images I used, I bought them in my local craft shop postcard size.


What medium do you use for colouring?

My Time TO Crafts 512 - Summertime Water Play

 Good Morning All

My Time To Craft Challenge this fortnight is

Summertime Waterplay

I had this image in my Topper box, already coloured in with Polychromo pencils.

The image is a postcard from the local craft shop.

I diecut it with CE Pierced Ovals, added a sentiment tag and the tiny sentiment is from LOTV.

Afew gems in the corners and voila.

I inked the background piece with my Oxides, Lemonade, China and Sapphire.
