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.

Witchkeys

Good morning

One of my all time favourite images is 'Witchkeys' by Saturated Canary, last year I made several cards with it, so this time I wanted to try something different.


I thought I would try paper piecing.  The parts of the image which I did not piece, I coloured with Promarkers.  I mounted the finished image on some silver mirri.


The gorgeous purple backing paper is a freebie from Bearly Mine.  I also added a pumpkin charm and some ribbon from my stash.

Thanks for dropping by.

  1. I love this trio and all your colour combinations. I think I am the one on the left (when she has dark hair) after a bad day at the office - which is most days as you know!! Loving your Halloween cards, but I'm very tempted to ask you about Christmas cards!! xx
