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.

It is already Mid Challenge reminder time at Crafty Boots Challenges, where we are celebrating Breast Cancer Awareness month with a 'Pink' challenge.


This Tiddly Inks image reminded me of all those wonderful ladies who dress in pink to do the 'Race for Life' in order to raise money for Breast Cancer Awareness, I thank you all for caring.  The image is called 'Happy Bee Day' and looks a real treat all dressed in pink.

I coloured the image with Promarkers and mounted her on gold mirri and pink glitter card.  I cut the Memory Box butterfly from gold mirri and added some flat backed gems.  The ribbon is from my stash and the Breast Cancer Awareness sentiment is from McMahon Five Designs, which is sadly no longer with us.

Do not forget to enter your pink projects into this Crafty Boots Challenge, and good luck.

    1. I think Race for Life should adopt her as their mascot.
