I hope you enjoy your visit to my blog, mainly card making but I now have six Grand children, five girls and a boy. As I love these kids so much I can't help showing an odd picture of them now and again. I really need to get into Scrapbooking too, loads of pics to use. I do some knitting and crocheting too. I also have a page on Facebook - Wendy's Crafty Crafts where I have a fun challenge most weeks.

About Me
- Wendy L
- 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

Quad Easel Card
Good Afternoon all
Hope all is well with you all.
Todays card is a quad easel, looks very complicated but good. I made this a while ago following written instructions in a magazine and the papers are from Making Cards Mag. Christina has just put a tutorial on website Card Making Magic.
I,m not sure about giving this to anyone as I wouldn,t know how to explain to them how to stand it up.!!!!!!
Hugs to all.

It is far from perfect but I just wanted to show it to you and when I saw Christinas post, I thought I would show you mine. I know her tutorials are exceptional.
Hugs to all.
