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.

Flapper Girl

I have three cards for the price of one today.  This image of a very trendy Flapper is from an old kit by Kanban Crafts which I bought from QVC way back in the Dawn Bibby days.  The backing card and sentiments are also from Kanban, the ribbon, pear;s and Glossy Accents are from my stash.

The backing cards are beautifully highlighted with gold foil and I added Glossy Accents to her hair and I placed a few pearls around the design.




Hopefully, I shall be back with more cards tomorrow.

      Many thanks Carol. The only complaint I would make about these sheets of images with matching sentiments is that they only give you one sentiment reading 'Happy Birthday' and the rest say things like with love, thinking of you and congratulations. I am sure other people would, like me, appreciate a few more Happy Birthday's as the majority of cards I make are for birthday's, followed by wedding anniversarys. With only a few for congratulations or even thinking of you. Moan over.

      Aww. you're just saying that to be nice - I always think that my style is a bit predictable.
