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.

Christmas Stars

This is a very late posting today - and in more ways than one.

I meant to post this card last week but it completely slipped my mind.  I realised this yesterday and decided to rectify it today.  However, earlier today I was unable to get on line and hence the lateness of this posting.

Over at Crafty Boots Challenges the theme of the current challenge is 'Stars' and this card is one of my Design Team projects.


I die cut the stars from glitter card and added die cut words using Tim Holtz Alteration dies.  The backing paper is from an old Stampin' Up stack, which I then layered on some silver mirri card.  The silver ribbon is from my stash.

I decided this weekend that the only way I would get enough Christmas cards made in time was to start batch making them,  This card forms part of my first batch of 10 cards


Well, at least I have made a start ....... just another 90 cards to go.
