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.

A few More Calendar cards

All week I have sharing the cards I made by re-cycling my old 2020 calendar. I have been thinking about doing this for years and always felt a bit of a cheapskate but this year circumstances are a little different, what with both craft and card shops being closed due to the latest lockdown, so I decided it was time to get a little inventive.

Today I have the last of the birthday cards to share with you ...




All of the designer papers, buttons, cardstock and sentiments came from my stash.

Take care.

      Thank you Carol. I know you will smile when I tell you that the middle card is the calendar's Easter page and the hedgehog's are 'rolling' an Easter egg - I had to go on the hunt to find a sentiment large enough to cover the egg. Just thought, perhaps I could alter it and turn it into a 102.

      Keep warm.

    Another beautiful set and managing to hide the egg so cleverly is inspired! Xxx

      Thank you. I am a little sad that they are all done, I almost wish I had another calendar to work on. Still, Christmas cards next, I'm just waiting for some plain white card to be delivered.

      Have a good week.
