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

Happy Sunday Challenge

 Good Morning All

Yey, we were back at Craft Club on Friday, only 6 allowed but that's good.

I sorted out a rota for the ladies and it worked out ok.

Groovi classes start on Wednesday too and those ladies are happy about it too.

Onto my challenge for the ladies, it is a sketch.

Here is my card.

I used an offcut of parchment to make the panel and backed it onto a piece of alcohol dyed card, and used some others scraps for the other side.

I used the multi Heart Groovi plate that Liz from the craft shop gave me for Christmas, love this plate.

The video explains and the poem is delightful.

This is the poem, I Googled What to put in a Matchbox and this came up.



If anyone would like to donate I have included the link on the video.
Or you can donate regularly on Teaming .net which is what I do, who misses a couple euro or pounds per month???

Happy Sunday Challenge

 Good Morning All

I decided on a sketch to start the 2021 Challenges off.

My card

Embossed Butterfly Centura pearl card.

Lily of the Valley image coloured and mounted onto 2 different shades of green card.

Green and white ribbon on side with sentiment tied on and a couple of ribbon flowers added.


Sketch to follow

Everyone is welcome to join in.

*****************
We have new restrictions brought in on Thursday last week so our Craft Club is suspended until further notice, so this will give me a chance to build up my stash of gifts for the ladies.
The craft shop is still open and we could meet but only 4 to a table and well spread out so Liz and Paul thought it best to be safe than sorry which is good.
I know 2 couples personally that have the virus and it is not pleasant although they are still at home fortunately, but quite ill.

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

The challenge I set before we broke up for the Christmas holidays was a sketch.


My card

Dawn made 2



Val J
