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 Cuddles

Here we go, less than a week until the big day.  How well advanced are you with your preparations?  I am not doing too bad - present bought and wrapped, cards made and sent.  I need to do a big clean up and then put up a few decoration.  After that a last trip to the supermarket to get the fresh stuff.  In between I need to meet up with a few people to give them their presents.

The first two cards in this post are from the cute Hunkydory Adorable Scorable kit called 'A Cuddly Christmas', the individual sheet is called 'Penguin Cuddles'.


This sweet decoupage penguin is part of a pack of decoupage characters a friend gave me for Christmas last year, too cute!


Everything on this penguin card came with the kit.

This Santa's big red bus was left over from one of the Hunkydory sheets I used last year but I did not keep the information on which kit it came from.  Sorry!

The elves, Daisy, Danny and Dot seem to have been exploring and have made a new friend ....


Dobby the House Elf, fancy that!

Happy Monday.

      Thank you, thank you, thank you.

      I did suggest to my niece that she checked the backs of her cupboards and wardrobes because I am sure she has an elf nest somewhere!

    Great cards, I especially love those reindeer on the bus. Wow the elves are multiplying, but very glad to see Dot is safe and sound. I'm making slow progress with Christmas prep - doing a lot more sitting on the settee in pjs than I should be! xxx

      Ah, ha. I thought you might like the big red bus.

      Is it that you are watching Christmas movies in your PJs?
