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

Make it Feminine for Craft Rocket

Good Morning All
Craft Rocket Challenge this time is 'Make it Feminine'
and we have  Di's Digis sponsoring this one so I used their image called
Braid My Hair.
As you may know, I,m not a great fan of colouring as I feel they never look good.
So for this one I just coloured the tiny birds in her hair.
Lots of Pixie Powders used on this for the frame and the background.
Pierced Oval to frame the image.
Once again, this pic is not good, blue does not look good with my camera, sorry.

For a Child for Crafty Friends

Good Morning All
Crafty Friends Challenge this time is For A Child.

We are sponsored by Pink Gems Designs and I used their image called
Jodie in Dungarees (pre coloured)




The backing paper is made using Pixie powders.
I tied some Tulle in a knot and covered with a tiny bow, added a bead dangler.
 Tucked some gem swirls from Zsa Zsa creations under edge of Pierced Noble Circle.

Paper Piecing for Allsorts



Good Morning All
Kath is hosting this weeks challenge at Allsorts and she has chosen Paper Piecing.
I used this cute image called Coco & Roses from our sponsor Digistamp Boutique.
The hessian card and paper are from a pad a friend gave to me, not sure whose they are, but match well I think.
CE Ornate Oval.
I have paper pieced the bunch of flowers but it is hard to tell on this pic.

Crafty Friends Challenge is Back

Good Morning Again
I,m back with my 2nd post today to announce that Crafty Friends Challenge is up and running again.
Diane and Tanya have decided to re-open as Diane is feeling better after her illness.

The first challenge is running with both teams and is Anything Goes, so I suspect it will be a very busy week.

The papers are from Docrafts and the digi from our sponsor A Day For Daisies

Past Times

Good Morning all.

Both Johns and my Mothers arrived last night so I may not be posting as regularly as usual, but we will see.

Todays card is not my usual style but we all have to make `male` cards sometimes.
I was lucky enough to win a challenge over at Crafty Anns Challenge blog afew weeks ago and this was one of the digis I chose.  The reason being - to make me do some `male` cards.
This is an A6 white card blank - I cut the front diagonally in half and used a black and white print paper for the insert.  Coloured the digis with my Promarkers and just added afew gems and sentiments.

I am entering this in -

Move Along with the Times challenge 144 - Shabby chic and/or Vintage
Anything Goes challenge # 65 - Time or Steampunk
Incy Wincy Challenge # 142 - Digis only
Crafty Boots Challenge  - No girls allowed

Male Theme

Good Morning All
Sorry I missed yesterday but I went out for the day with my neighbour, Susie.  We went to a local market in the morning because I needed some more wool to finish my sons, babies shawl, I am crocheting one for them.  Also, there is a thread on Docrafts forum requesting hats and other bits for premature babies.  As you will know if you have read my intro, this is something very close to my heart, so I will be doing some of those when I have finished the shawl.

This is abit different for me because I like doing pretty and female themes.  This is a digi from Crafty Anns store `Josh playing guitar` coloured with Promarkers, mounted onto a 5 x 7" blank.  Backing papers are all from stash - black & white music notes matted onto gold mirri card and the star papers were given free with Cardmaking Mag.  Peeloffs added - the dots are all from the waste of a peeloff sheet (I dont like to waste anything, I lways keep my sheets and use the odd little bits to put on corners etc)This will be added to the charity box for one of my ladies to use as neither of my Sons plays guitar!!!

I am entering this into-
Craft Anns Challenge# 162 - Its a Man Thing
