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.

Penguin Parade

Christmas card number three, not a bad start to my pile of cards for this Christmas, 3 down just 97 to go.

These cute toppers with matching backing papers come from the Hunkydory kit 'Festive Fun' from their Adorable Scorable range.  I have tried to keep this card as flat as possible because I intend to send it through the post.  The ribbon is the only elements from my crafting stash.


Hopefully, I will manage at least one more Christmas card before July is out.
