 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

Butterflies Galore

 Good Morning All

As you know, I dont like sitting watching TV without doing something else.  This is one thing I do, Make teeny tiny butterflies with Parchment or vellum and scraps of bookpages or coloured card.

And here are 4 cards I made just using them and afew offcuts, scraps.

Very sort of CAS, Sentiment is stamped and afew pearls in corner.

Scraps of embossed pearlised card.

Again, stamped sentiment and pearls.

Inked embossed card.

I think they look good, quite simple once the butterflies are made, that takes the time.

Do you do any crafting while watching TV?

Early Christmas for MAWTT

 Good Morang All

Moving Along With The Times Challenge this month is 

Early Christmas

I borrowed a Christmas plate from one of my Craft Group Ladies and made quite afew of the Christmas tree toppers.  These cards are quite small, about 13cm sq.

I got them from my sister in both red and green.

And I used red and green parchment.

I think I might make up a box of 8 for the Raffle prizes for the charity too, aswell as keeping some for myself, although I wont be posting many Christmas cards this year unless I go back to UK in December, so expensive from here to post  anywhere.

Camping for MTTC

 Good morning All

My Time To Craft Challenge this time has been chosen by Becca and her theme is 

Camping

I have to ask my Crafty Friend Eve if she had any images I could use as I wanted a tent, not a caravan, and she came good for me.

I made two cards with the images she gave me.

One Circle and one Oval.

Matted onto 6x6 papers.

Aren't they pretty?

Cards & Travels

 Good Morning  All

All settled back at home now and Rico back home too.

I have 4 cards to show you toady using a paper pad from Hunkydory which I bought at my local Craft shop.

These sort of toppers are not usually my thing but they do make quick cards for the charity boxes so that's why I bought the pad.

*****************

Here are afew pics from our travels.

This is from our apartment window in Madrid, we do prefer self catering to a hotel.

Outside the Prado Museum

Onto Cordoba which was our favourite place.

In May they open their patio gardens to the public and they are just beautiful and must take so much work and watering too.  So many pots hung on the walls.

And there was a festival too where they dress in traditional Spanish costumes, so beautiful.

Thanks for visiting and I would highly recommend Cordoba in May if you get the chance.
