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.

Easter Carly

I hope that you are enjoying the long weekend.  I know that Easter Monday is not celebrated in all countries and I should love to hear how you celebrate Easter, if you celebrate it at all.

A four day weekend is something which we look forward to and many of us spend it with family and friends.  When I was a child it seemed to be a time when people decorated a room or two in their homes, but I cannot remember the last time anyone said this is what they had planned for the long weekend.  Mind you, I would not object if my husband were to get his paint brushes out!

It is Mid Challenge Reminder time at Crafty Boots Challenges.  The current theme is Easter and I have another Easter card to share with you today.


This little cutie is from Mo's Digital Pencil and she is called 'Easter Carly'.  After colouring the image with Promarkers and Wink of Stella pens I mounted it on some gold mirri.


I cut the Sizzix little chick die out of some DCWV Glitzy Glitter card and pearlescent card.  The other papers are from my stash.

The Crafty Boots Challenges Design Team have been busy making more cards to inspire you, why not take a look.
