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

A couple of cards today for  Men or Boys.

This one features a two sided tag I made for a You Tube video



Both cards use offcuts of patterned card which gives me a great satisfaction using these.

Summer Fun for MAWTT

 Good Morning All

The theme for Moving Along With The Times is

Summer Fun 

and I used the same topper from LOTV as my previous DT.

I always seem to go to LOTV for my DT cards, they are great for Men cards too and I have them on a memory stick so I can print when I need them.

The backing paper is from Claritystamp.com

Winter for MTTC

 Good Morning All

My Time To Craft This fortnight is

Winter 

chosen by GranMargaret down in Australia,

I made this card first, then when I was looking in my Christmas drawer for some suitable papers, I found some toppers I inherited from somewhere and thought  the scenes were very Wintery.

So this is the first one with an LOTV topper, Crafty Ribbons sentiment ribbon and a peeloff.


I added a boot charm tied with twine.

This is the second card with a lovely Winter scene  -  snow covered roof tops.  I think the papers are from Lisa when she used to work for Creative Expressions.


Which do you like best??

Men

 Good Morning All

Last Saturday I got my box of cards out that were ready with mats or fractured frames etc, the ones I make at my craft group using scraps of card, paper and ribbon.  I finished  alot of them, 21 infact!!!!

Here are 2 of them.

I pulled out some LOTV toppers



I felt really proud of myself making so many into cards ready for the charity boxes.

The charities are having a hard time of it now as Facebook have got rid of the Donate button so donations have to be made through bank which alot, including me, dont like doing, it was so easy with the Donate button.
I know La Finca Castellan, the Animal charity I support, is suffering.

If anyone wants to help via myself, go to my Kofi page Kofi page and donate there and I will pass on the cash to them.

Thanks for visiting

Cute

 Good Morning All

I treated myself to a Binding machine last week and this is my first make.

I used the left over strips of paper to make this booklet, its about 3" wide and 6" deep.

I embellished it with some digitals


One of my Craft Group bought it from me on Friday to give to her friend too!!.


This is a large card so I am keeping it for my own use, it is 8x8.
It is an LOTV topper and the paper is like flocked wallpaper, quite unusual.  All matted onto an 8x8 parchment which I snipped around .  Its a leftover piece from when I cut out squares for the Groovi group.
