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.

Coneflowers and Butterflies

We are enjoying a warm and sunny Bank Holiday in the UK - although looking out of the window at the moment, it is not clear how today will turn out.

Crafty Boots Challenges are celebrating the Butterflies and Bees with their current challenge.


This lovely digital stamp is from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. After colouring it with Copic markers, I mounted it on gold mirri card.  The backing papers are from Stampin' Up.  The wooden butterfly buttons are out of my stash and the sentiment is by Craftwork Cards.


There is still plenty of time to enter your projects into this challenge.

Good luck.


Dionne

      Thank you Lisette. I have been using some rather fussy papers for this challenge, they are called English Garden from Stampin' Up. Whilst fussy, they seemed perfect for this challenge. The fab butterfly button are a rather recent purchase from Ebay.
