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

Outlawz Challenges

 Hi Everyone

Today is Outlawz challenge day, both ABAC (Anything But A Card) & Twisted.

First I have my ABAC make and it is my tiny butterflies that I punch out and layer and add gems or pearls.

This is the punch, or rather, one of the punches I use.  It is about 1 cm across and I punch a base from coloured paper or thin card and a top layer from parchment.



I use a good glue like Glossy Accents and do the layers first.


These I added blue diamond gems on, left over from Diamond Art.

These I added Green diamond gems.

I these I added mixed colours of  pearls.

I use these on my cards, gift boxes and I also add to the raffle prize for my Craft Group.

***************************
Now onto the Twisted Challenge.
The theme is
A Sketch
My card

Clarity Designer paper, a topper that was in some stash I was given, I think its Crafts U print.

Outlawz Challenges Feb

 Hi

Two Outlawz challenges start today.  The first is ABAC (Anything But A Card)

I made Notebooks again but a different style.  These are more a Handbag size, for quick notes and reminders.

These are literally made from scraps.  The pages are pieces that are cut off A4 papers for my card inserts so are about 2.5" wide and 11 long and folded in half.

The covers are from my offcuts folder then decorated with bits form my Junk journal stash.



I Gave these to my Doctors surgery staff at Christmas.

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

        The next challenge is Outlawz Twisted Formerly Colour. 


                  So its shades of Pink through Maroon.

Again, offcuts of coloured card arranged in strips, a lovely Cupcake topper, a diecut and afew punched butterflies.
