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.

Bluebird’s proposal

Those who visit my blog regularly may be pleased to hear that I only have one or two more Easter cards to post.  However, there is still plenty of time to enter your Easter projects in the Crafty Boots Easter Challenge.

Today's card features a Gorjuss Girl stamp called 'Bluebird's Proposal'.  Apologies for the poor quality photograph but the light has not been good recently and I had to use artificial light.


After colouring the image with Promarkers I mounted it on some silver mirri and  DCWV glitzy glitter card. The papers are from a Dovecraft stack.


I cut the eggs from some more DCWV glitzy glitter card.

    1. Thank you Pamellia. It is almost time to put Easter things away for another year. I suppose I really ought to start thinking about Christmas cards ,but it will be like last year and the year before, left to the very last minute to make them.

    1. Gorjuss Girls are so cute, I have had the stamps so long I had forgotten I had them. I really need to dig them out and start using hem again. I am very annoyed about the poor photo, it spoils the look of this card.
