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

Forever Baby

Good Morning All
A sad day today. Lee and Megans tiny doggy got run over yesterday morning and she is in bits. Anyone that has not had a pet will not understand the pain she is going through, I just feel so much for her.  She loved that tiny dog so much.  She was call Bambi and  was a long haired Chihuahua, so tiny and so cute.

The pain will get less as time goes by but that does not help at the time.
***********
Todays card is a for a baby girl and back to Forever Friends.




It is from a pack, ages old too, but I do still love FF products.  This came with a tiny box to match, for a  gift or money.

These are quick, easy cards, but all help the charities here and most of mine go to Animal Aid which helps the dogs, mostly abandoned ones.

Good Morning All

Spanish lesson this afternoon so will have to revise last weeks lesson before we go. 
We are going to stay on at the bar for something to eat as we came 2nd in the quiz on Sunday and won a 10euro food voucher to spend there, so that will save me thinking of what to cook for dinner tonight.!!!!

Todays card is white on white.  I look at other peoples creations and they are stunning.  I dont have many Spellbinder dies (which I will have to rectify soon) so I cant cut out all the gorgeous, intricate patterns some people use, but  here it is.

Circle Card

Good Afternoon all

My card today is a circle. I,ve made it for afew challenges I enter regularly.

I folded an A4 sheet of Pearlpale pink card, then drew a circle with my compass with a diameter of just under 6".  (Gosh, this is taking me back to my school days - what with compasses and diameters).  A Forever Friends peeloff stuck onto pink card and cut edges with scalloped scissors.  Put fancy white and silver doily inderneath edges and then just went to town on my embellishments - foam `Love` and ducks - Pin made from jewellery stash - die cut flowers from my NEW Marrianne dies - afew pearls - peeloff round the edge.


I would also like to thank my new followers too.

Plain & Simple

Good Morning all
It is such a gorgeous morning here today, not a cloud in the sky.  Outside my front window(my craft room) there is a carpet of beautiful deep pink flowers that are only around for afew weeks, they are a type of succulent, the leaves are very fleshy.


Now for todays card - it is another Forever Friend stamped and heat embossed onto white card then layed onto black.  I mounted it onto a FF card blank and chalked the tiny stars with a gold colour then sprayed with hairspray to hold it.

Added a `With Love` sentiment to keep it clean and simple.
