Dee's Craft Room: Pretty in Pink

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.

Pretty in Pink

Hi, I'm back with more butterfly ATCs.

This week Crafty Boots Challenges is all about pink butterflies. I have been having so much fun letting my imagination run riot and my craft room is overrun with butterflies.

I used a Martha Stuart punch to make the butterflies out of pink pearlescent card and I added tiny flat backed gems to their centers. The pink glitter card was from my stash and the daisies and the gem brads are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The two tone ribbon is from the Really Reasonable Ribbon people.
