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.

As the Sun Goes Down

The fabulous weather we had this weekend would have been perfect for messing about on boats and this image seems perfect for the Crafty Boots Picture Challenge Reminder.  It captures the very last rays of sunshine for the day as these boats make their way back to harbour.


The image is from Delicious Doodles is called 'Coming Home'.  I coloured it with F&C pencils and them mounted it on silver mirri and Wisteria Wonder card from Stampin' Up.  The papers are also from Stampin' Up.  The card Candy is from Craftwork Cards and the sentiment was made on my computer.


I hope you have a fabulous week, oh, and don't forget to pop over the Crafty Boots Challenges and enter you project for this challenge.

Good luck.
