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.

Blue Baby Fairy

It has been such a miserable week here, high winds and lots of rain, so this morning it was such a pleasant surprize to find the sun shining and it is warm for a change.  It is such a cheering sight and I hope it is the same where you are.

I have been very busy recently and my posting is slipping behind.  I am afraid that I only have a few minutes to share this card with you today as I am expecting a friend to arrive any moment.

The current challenge over at Crafty Boots Challenges is 'Things with Wings' and I thought that this sweet little fairy from Mo's Digital Pencil was a perfect fit.



After colouring the image with Promarkers I added a little glitter around the wings and then mounted it on silver mirri and blue pearlescent card.


 I am afraid that I cannot recall where the backing paper came from but the sentiment is from Craftwork Cards and the buttons and bakers twine came from my stash.

Have a good day.


Dionne
