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.

Cute Carol Singers

Tidying up my craft space a few weeks ago I found a folder full of images I must have stamped years ago, I have no memory of doing this and I cannot remember the names of any of the stamps I used.  Being close to Christmas I really did not have time to go through my rather large stamp collection to work out which was which, sorry.


I coloured this one with F&C polychromos pencils and added Aleens's Glitter Snow to the snowflakes and fur trim to their hats.


The backing papers were scraps left over from cards I made a few weeks ago.  Both the snowflake die and the Christmas tree die are recent purchases.  Finally, the silver ribbon was from my stash.

Don't forget that the current Crafty Boots Challenge is 'Winter Wonderland'.

    1. Thank you so much ..... I always want to address you by name, but after all of this time, I have no idea what it is (in my mind I assume that CdeBaca is your surname, but I could have that wrong).
