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

Gruffies Brown

Good Morning All

My card today is another Gruffies decoupage, I do love these.  I make two cards from one decoupage set, that is,  I use one either as a flat image and the other layers as decoupage, or I will just use a couple of layers on each one (makes it better for posting). This one is so sweet, having a picnic, or is it just eating outdoors, eating pasta?  and the little squirrel joining in

Items Used
Crafts Too 'Swiss dots' embossing folder with a ribbon down the middle to hide the join as the folder is only A6 size
Homemade sentiment tags
Metal charm 'Made With Love' tied on with twine
