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

Anything Spring for MAWTT

 Hi

My second post today, as it's the 1st, is Moving Along With The Times Challenge and a theme chosen by Brenda

Anything Spring

So I made and Easter card for 2 of my Grandaughters, Hollie And Tessie.

I used an LOTV Topper with a bunny and daffodils, added my own sentiment, a doily and some gems and punched flowers in the bottom corner.




I left this at their house when I visited last month with a little treat inside too (money), that's what they are most interested in now, more than Easter eggs!!

 and here is what I made, afew shaped or rather, folded cards.

These are the oblongs of card, about 15x 5 inch, had them for a longggg time.


Off cuts of this lovely Clarity designer paper.


I tried to fold in different ways just for abit of added interest.




Then started adding the LOTV toppers.


I added another topper on the inside.

Sunday

 Hi all

Sunday again and I have had a busy week crafting.

I have joined afew collaborations for December so busy with those.

Also, getting all my Christmas gifts for my groups sorted out, cards written and getting organised.

Anyway, here is this weeks challenge card for my Craft Group.

This is a topper from LOTV


Sketch to follow

*************
This is the card I made for my Groovi Group on Tuesday.
A theme of Flowers & Frames.
.
The flowers are punched and the leaves are a Clarity Die and a Groovi plate, and obviously the frame and sentiment are Groovi plates.

I have also started baking my own bread and here is some delicious spicy squash soup with a couple of slices from my homebaked baguette.
Do any of you bake your own bread?


**************
This is a pic of the sky yesterday morning when I took Rico for a walk at about 7.40am

Isn't it beautiful? I love it when the trees are in silhouette.

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.
