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.

Prima Doll Heads

Hi everyone

Oh I have been having so much fun with my new Prima Doll stamps and it is all thanks a Christmas present from my dear friend Lisette as she bought me my first one.

This weekend I have made two sets of ATC from the six stamps I currently have.  The set I would like to share with you today I have decided, for obvious reasons, to call heads.


It is fairly self evident how I made them, I coloured the background with Ranger distress inks.  The paper scraps and flat backed gems came from my stash.

A big thank you to my sister for donating her dictionary, goodness knows what she is going to do now when she needs to look up a word!








 Please pop by later in the week to see the other set or you can link to them here.

  1. I absolutely love these. The backgrounds set them off beautifully and the dictionary pages look fab (did you need medication after using a book??!). Of course my favourite is the glittery crown.xx

    1. Ha ha, I had the dictionary about six months before I could bring myself to rip a page out.
