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.

Here's my Heart


As you may know, the theme of the current Crafty Boots Challenge is 'Love is in the Air'.  I have another of my Design Team cards to share with you today.


This femme fatale is from Saturated Canary, the image is called 'On my Heart'.  I coloured her using Promarkers and I added Glossy Accents to the heart.  I then mounted it onto gold mirri and some deep pink pearlised card.  The spot UV backing paper is from a Santoro paper stack and the ribbon and charm are from my stash.

I hope you have a fabulous weekend in store.

    1. Thank you Lisette. I am afraid that this photo does not really do it justice, but it has been so dark recently I could not get a good photograph.

    1. Thank you Pamellia, I think the image has a something of a vampire quality to it, rather appropriate given that enormous heart.
