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.

Little Princess

I have had so much fun making my sunny coloured cards for the current Crafty Boots Challenge.  Yellow has been such a cherrful colour to work with, it is quite uplifting.


This little cutie is a rubber Stamp from Funky Kits, Manga Princess is from the Sugar Nellie stable.  I coloured the stamp with Promarkers and then die cut both it, and the slightly larger card from gold mirri, using Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels 17 dies.


The backing papers are from Studio Calico and the gorgeous paper lilies and leaves are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  The sentiment and stars are from my stash.

There is still time for you to enter your projects into this challenge, just hop over to the  Crafty Boots blog and link your project using the little thingamajig.

      Thanks Carol. That paper has a real acid edge, doesn't it?

      Have a great weekend.
