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.

Curiosity and the Cat

I had another go with the curios cats metal dies - they are so much fun.

The dies came from Amazon but they had no manufacturers name on the packaging.

This was a very simple design, I decided the little faces would suit a DL card,  I cut the cats out of black glittered card, I just love the whiskers and the eyes (sadly you cannot see the bottom cats eyes, but they are there).  I mounted the cat images on silver mirror card and some old gold card.

I think they would cheer up anyone's day.
