Welcome


Hello, my name is Dionne and I have been crafting for a very long time. As a very young child my mother tried to teach me to knit, it was a disaster. However, it must have sparked an interest in making things and, partly to prove that I was not totally useless and partly because I really wanted to make things, I taught myself to crochet. Over the years I have developed a love of cross stitch and all types of paper craft ..... I eventually even taught myself to knit.


I am married to a very understanding man, thank goodness, because I spend all my time either crafting, thinking about crafting or talking about crafting. I am hopeless at housework and dinner is often late!


Thank you for visiting my blog.

Six More Christmas Cards

As promised, I am back with a second post today to share a few more of this year's Christmas cards.

These kit cards came from Hunkydory (I cannot find the actual pack on their website to give you the link, the nearest I can get is their  Luxury Christmas Card Making Kit.)  Each kit contains everything you need to make the cards - printed card, main image, 2 sentiments, 2 tags, 2 decorative strips, an handmade by label, foam spacers and envelopes.







Things like twine, paper flowers, gems and Santa charms are all from my stash.  After these photographs were taken I went back and added Flower Soft Polar White to the snow and the white fur trims.  I also stamped a sentiment inside each card.

    1. I agree Carol and they were pretty good value for money because they were on special offer when I bought them.

  2. Great set of cards, perfectly executed as always. I am thrilled to be in possession of the second one, thank you so much. Interestingly, I picked that one out as my favourite before I opened your card. Your blog post reminded me that I still had the card you sent waiting to be opened. In the chaos of the builders it had got stranded where I couldn't quite get to it! Perfect choice and there are so many more gorgeous details in real life. Xxx

    1. Ha ha, I love that story and I am so pleased you like the card I chose for you - although I don't think that is your actual card (watch this space).

      I am afraid that my photography leaves an awful lot to be desired but they are lovely kit cards.
