Cross Stitch, knitting, crochet, dressmaking, card making, scrapbook and wedding stationery.
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.

Calla Lilies and Butterflies
At last I seem to be getting my act together and posting my pink butterfly projects. After posting two sets of ATCs yesterday and card the day before, I have another card for you this morning.
These pretty Calla Lilies are from Stitchy Bear. The papers are from my favourite Papermania stack and the sentiment from Craftwork Cards. I cut the butterflies from some pearlescent card using some Memory Box dies.

Absolutely gorgeous card, Dionne. These butterflies I am seeing are really stealing the show! Those calla lilies look fab too.
