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.

Time for a Birthday

Today I would like to share with you some more of the new metal dies I have recently acquired from Amazon.  They were an extremely good price but there was no makers name on the packaging.  


I was in a bit of a hurry on the day I put this card together but as I worked away it occurred to me that there was probably more I could do with this die.  I am now really eager to have another go at the skeleton clock die.

Oh, by the way, I am sure that in reality the colour of the 'Happy Birthday' looked much better against the red card.

Have a great day.

      Thank you, that is very kind of you - just watch this space. I have just gone totally OTT on a similar card!

      Have a great week.
