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.

Trick or Treat

If you have been dropping by for a long while, first of all thank you for your support over the years, I really do appreciate it, also, you may recognise this image.  It was one of the ones I used this time last year and I must have printed it more than once and did not use this copy - luckily for me as it was in my 'Spares' folder.


The image is from Tiddly Inks and is called 'Trick or Treat Wryns'. I coloured the image with Promarkers and mounted it on some silver mirri and pumpkin orange card.


I stamped the background myself.  First I swished the blank card with Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed and Vintage Photo.  I then used the Vintage Photo to stamp the leaf pattern with some Bo Bunny leaf stamps.  The sentiment came from a pack I got off the internet.

There is still time for you to enter your Halloween projects in the Crafty Boots Halloween Challenge.

Good Luck.


Dionne

      Thank you Carol, I do not know any dog which would leave a mask alone, it would be off in two seconds. Ha ha.

    Such an adorable card! I love this one. The whole setting, colors... Just perfect for halloween. Now, do you dress up for halloween? :) In all honesty - I do not. Haha but I honestly love all the costumes. I'm not into gory ones but more of the cute ones and memorable characters.

      Thank you, sometimes it is fun to make my own background and I had a very specific idea in mind for this card.

      Halloween is not a big thing in the UK, I may get 3 or 4 children knocking on the door. I have a rather grand witches hat I pop on my head when I answer the door but I do not really dress up.
