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.

Purple Fairies

A few days ago I shared with you a set of birthday cards featuring a Hunkydory card kit.  I was quite impressed with the Hunkydory Christmas cards I made last month, so I thought I would buy a couple of their birthday card sets to see what they were like.

They are designed on exactly the same principle - a sheet of mixed toppers and sentiments with two sheets of matching backing card.  This set features purple fairies and bluebells.





All I added to these cards were flowers, flat backed gems, ribbon and glue.  These cards is very high gloss and they look really good but they are really difficult to photograph.


Dionneh.

      Me too, I love bluebells, but I have never been able to grow them. I can only assume that I have the wrong type of soil.

      Thank you, the flowers came from Wild Orchid Crafts - although, of course, they are not called that anymore.
