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.

Say it with Roses

I have another of those kit cards to share with you today.

I made this card from the bits I had left over after making a wedding anniversary card.  As I did not have any one in particular in mind when I made it I kept this simple so it could be used for an anniversary or an engagement etc.


I purchased the kit from C&C many years ago and, whilst I cannot be sure, I think it was by Kanban.  The only things not in the kit were the flat backed gems and the glue.

    1. Oh, me too. It is such a beautiful design and lends itself to very simple layouts.
