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

Men cards

Good Morning All

My Boxes of cards for charity are getting quite low so I decided to make some quick Men cards.
All made with Kraft card embossed with a Happy Birthday folder.
Joanna Sheen dies.
Then just wrapped twine around and added a stamped sentiment.
Easy Peasy.

Groovi Men

Good Morning All

Afew weeks ago I borrowed my friends Groovi plates for men, cogs and wheels..

Here is another one but this time I did some snipping within the cogs etc.
I found a lovely piece of paper in a 6x6 pad from The Works.
Very happy with this one.

I think I shall borrow this plate again, a nice flat card too for posting.

Men cards

Good Morning All


A couple of cards I made that I thought would be suitable for Men.
Decoupage piano I have had for years.
Ribbon scraps from Crafty Ribbons
Vellum music sheet




I used some old peeloffs of music notes that would match the ribbon I used.

A Task

Good Morning All
A lady who regularly asks me to make personalised cards for her gave me a challenge afew weeks ago.
Three cards for her three Grandsons - One likes Lego, one likes QPR and the other is a mechanic!!!!!


 For the Lego, all I could think of was to print some paper to use as a background.
I used paper for  mats all the colours from Lego.



QPR,  I printed onto printable acetate and added silver circles to act as footballs all mounted onto embossed card.


The only car paper I had was of vintage cars, and I embossed silver card iwth a 'tools' embossing folder, and I added a key as it was his 18th.


She was pleased with them all anyway.
I think she likes the fact that they are personalised with their names etc.
