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.

Happy Easter

With only a week until Easter we have a new challenge starting at Crafty Boots Challenges today, the theme of which is of course 'Easter'

A few years ago I would have never thought of sending Easter cards but now it is getting like Christmas and I send to quite a few friends and close family ..... and to be honest I need to get my finger out because I  have only made a couple of cards and I need to make a lot more and get them into the post by tomorrow or the next day at the very latest!

I have made a start and here is the card I have to share with you today.


This Sylvia Zet stamp is called 'Easter Bunny'.  I coloured it with Promarkers and then mounted it on silver mirri.


The papers are from a Papermania stack and the flowers are by Pataloo.

The rest of the Design Team have been busy, please make time to take a look at their inspiration work and don't forget to enter your own Easter projects whilst you are there.

      Thank you my friend, you say the nicest things. Sadly the photo does not show the pretty flowers on the backing paper very well.
