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

Santoro Travellers Notebook

Good Morning All

Afew years ago, my crafty friend Val J, gave me a Santoro pack containing lots, and I mean , lots of toppers and papers, tags etc.
Now I have used quite alot for cards and still loads left so I decided to make a Travellers Notebook with some.
I stuck one of the pieces of A4 oto a black sheet of A4 card to strengthen it.
So this is the outside cover ties with seam binding.

And here is a flip through of some of the pages.
Lots of tags and tuck spots.








I use pages from books to make tuck spots and pockets.


I just have to make sure there are no swear words and and gory bits on the script!!!!




On this page I have added a decorated Paper clip

Abit of fun and I really enjoyed making it.

Travellers Notebook

Good Morning All

I watch quite afew You Tube tutorials and I have seen these along the way and thought I would have a go.  I made this for myself to use when I go on my travels in November back to Uk to see family.



I used a beautiful fine lace doily for the cover on top of a pretty flowery material.

A vintage image from my stash and a frame gifted to me in a swap.



















I stencilled alot of the pages and created alot of tuck spots and tags.

I found this lovely chain with a key on it and thought it was ideal as a book mark.







I used lots of scrap pieces of ribbon, Crafty Ribbons sell bags of off cuts for a quid in lots of varieties





I used some of the Grosgrain 'Handmade by' ribbon as page tabs like on the Junk Journal on Monday.





I shall use this on my visit for notes, as a diary and for receipts etc etc.
I hope you like and may want to try making one.
