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.

Another Twelve Days of Christmas

Oh dear, I thought I had made a note of which cards went with what Hunkydory Adorable Scorable kits but this one slipped through the net.  I think it was probably White Christmas or A Cuddly Christmas, whichever it was, it is called The Twelve Days of Christmas.


All of the elements on this card came in the kit.  All I did was mount the main image on some gold mirri card, popped it onto some of the backing card and added the small image and the sentiment.


All I added to this card was the sentiment, which was left over from one ot the other kits - waste not, want not!


Finally, this gorgeous, larger sized image.  The bigger images in these kits are all glorious but you need a large card to fit them on.  With this card I mounted the frame onto some blue card (I think it may have been Stampin' Ups Pool Party) and some silver mirri card before sticking it to an 8x8 Craftwork Cards blank. The main images I raised up with Pinflair Glue Gel and I added a sentiment from my stash.

Elf time, they are not going to be around for a lot longer .. makes me feel rather sad. 😞


Oh, they are feeding ducks.  I didn't know they had ducks in their garden ......


Ah, those kind of ducks, seems they have a lot of rubber ducks.  Wow.


I wonder how rubber ducks get on with bread?



Have a good day.

  2. Another superb set. Again, very nostalgic and a super cute take on my favourite Christmas song. I'd love these as illustrations in a book. How many ducks?! An amazing collection, I hope the elves had plenty of bread xxx

    1. I can always predict the cards you are going to like best!

      Apparently, one of the girls had a rubber duck Advent Calendar this year - and I have just spotted the three little ducks pulling Santa's sleigh ,,, can you see them?
