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

Card making meets Junk Journalling

 Good Morning All

As you know I love making ephemera for Junk Journals and I have shoe boxes packed with tags, journal cards, envelopes and toppers so I thought I would use some to make into cards.

Happy Sunday Challenge

 Good Morning All

I hope you are all having a good weekend.

My card for the Craft Club Challenge this week.

The theme I decided on is Dogs / Cats because I had  12 little pictures like this from last years calendar so I thought we could use them.

I let the ladies choose 1 or 2 each.



This is another card I made using one of the pics.
My friend Helen has a french Pug,  different colour to this one but the same breed.  This is the card  made for her Birthday last week.

A white 6x6 card base.

Black mat then Clarity designer paper and attached the parchment with black brads.

Simples.
