Good morning ladies, hope you all had a good Easter. Unfortunately here in Mojacar Easter was something of a washout. Yes rain and windy so didn't set foot outside the house, don't even know if the parades took place.
But I awake this morning to the sun (must be back from his Easter break in the UK) so possibly all the rain is now gone until after the summer. I never complain when it rains as we need rain here.

Now to my desk busy, busy, busy. The first is my computer table and the second the main table I work on. Swivelling between the two on my chair.

 This is the working desk glueing, sticking  etc. No room for the cat she was very put out. The playing cards are from a charity shop, someone wanted a card for a bridge player. I work in a local charity shop one day a week and am always on the look out for old games jigsaws etc that I can use. Needs must when you can't just drop into Hobbycraft or similar.

 The paper table each of the boxes contains paper, card, patterned paper etc. One box contains ribbons, tapes. The bag I won in a raffle thought it would be great for travelling with but with only taking a hand luggage case can't take it now.

Only another week until I jet off to Crete for my daughter's wedding, this next week is a week of pampering for me. Need all the treatment I can get. 

Now to link up with Julia at http://stamping-ground.blogspot.com/ hope over to her site and read what it is all about.

Have a happy crafting week.

Good morning from a warm and sunny day Mojacar. The weather has been great but forecast not so good for the Easter parades etc.

Now to my desk/table the reason we are here. As you can see I am now back in card making mode. This was my table last night after nearly a week of work. Note the dog he loves to stand on the stairs and look out of the window. The black dangly thing on the right is my personal alarm I receive so many phone calls from people pretending to be Microsoft that now they get a blast from this. 

On Monday a friend who has given up card making gave me an enormous carrier bag full of all sorts of goodies, from stickers, paper, card to heat gun, punches and cutters. It was like Christmas going through them all.

This is my amaryllis, this year only 4 flowers but someone who should be nameless cut all the leaves off earlier on in the year so I am lucky to have the flowers.

The Easter crowds are gathering fast as here in Spain the big religious parades start on Thursday. The photos below are from a previous year not easy getting the Virgin Mary out of church and even more difficult manoeuvring through the narrow streets of the village.

 

Hope you all have a good Easter break see you next week God willing.

Hi Guys I'm back. Still not 100% but getting there, I have to go to have my BP checked once a week and it is still on the high side, but hey ho summer is coming and I am looking forward to going to Crete in a few weeks time to my daughter's wedding. All outfit complete now just have to get it packed into hand luggage. I did buy a chiffon dress for this reason. Think I am going to look like Mrs Michelin getting on the plane.

Now for the reason we are here, my desk, well not much happening over the last few weeks. I thought I would go through my wool stash managed to take it all out but then ran out of energy so on the table it has stayed for the past week.

I have done some knitting and completed blankets for various charities. Love this one they call it the Jordan blanket.

I have been trying to make a wedding heart (on the lines of a horseshoe) thought it would be something different. My daughter is English and her husband to be is Scottish and the theme of the wedding is travel. (Don't ask since when have weddings had themes)

So that is me for this week hope your week ahead is full of crafting.
