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.

Good morning

The current challenge at Crafty Boots Challenges is Postcards. Now, it is up to you to decide how you interpret this theme.  I have made my own sunny image to share with those I left at home.  This fun image is another one from Mo's Digital Pencil, it is called Pineapple Girl.



I coloured the image with Promakers., then I mounted my card on some silver mirri card and added my 'Wish you Were Here' sentiment.  Finally, I cut it to the standard postcard size of 4 ¼” x 6”.

Why not pop over to the Crafty Boots Challenges website and see the ingenious ways other members  of the Design Team have interpreted this theme and whilst you are there, don't forget to enter your own creations into the challenge.

Good Luck.
