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.

Goosey, Goosey

Yea, I have managed another Christmas card.  I have, once again, taken the elements from the  Hunkydory kit - Festive Fun, from their Adorable Scorable range.  This time I have given the card some dimension by popping out the frames around the pre-coloured image and raising them up with Pinflare Glue Gel.  The 'Seasons Greetings' sentiment and ribbon are from my stash.


Don't go far, more will follow.

    1. Hi Carol, hope you are doing OK this weekend. Thank you for stopping by to leave such lovely comments. Seeing your kind words are particularly reassuring because I have received messages saying that blogger will not let them leave comments. Blogger strikes again!

    3. If they are Carol I want to know why, I have to pay for my account because I have so many photos on my blog. Did you see the message I left for you yesterday under my post about the Christmas card with the gnome on the front?

  2. This is beautiful. I have mixed feelings about geese, having been chase round the park by them, in my early married days, whilst Phil just collapsed with laughter! However, this pair look rather sweet and very festive x

    1. For the past 3 or 4 years our village pond has been over run with wild geese, upwards of 80 - 100 each year. The July parish news letter thanked John for his stirling work keeping the geese away this year. Two weeks later the geese flew in and settled down for the rest of the summer. Lol!
