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 Treat

One week to the big day and I am still making my Christmas card!

This little cutie is from Mo's Digital Pencil and is called 'First Christmas Girl'.


After colouring the image with Promarkers I added Polar White Flower Soft to the stockin and then mounted it on green glitter card.  The backing papers are by Dovecraft and the sentiment is from Papermania and the poinsettia is from Wild Orchid Crafts.

    It goes without saying that the image is beautifully coloured. Love that backing paper and the little glimpses of glittery green. xx

      Thank you, I have to confess that the red trim was a little challenging to colour.

      I seem to be using a lot of green glitter card this year - makes a change from red or purple!
