Rhian Edwards toppled fourth seed Karen Lawman 2-x to set up a classic Wales v England women's final.
The Llanelli debutant punished the experienced Yorkshire player for missing doubles to book her final showdown with seven times winner Trina Gulliver.
Edwards took the opening set 3-1 against the throwing advantage, repeatedly pouncing to hit doubles after the seed missed finishing opportunities.
Both players struggled to find the treble 20 bed in the second set, Edwards again hitting double 10 after Lawman had missed finishes of double tops and double 10.
The English player missed bull for a 130 finish, Edwards sweeping in to finish on 112, finished on double 16, the Doncaster sharpshooter hitting rare double four.
Edwards clinched victory on double 20 to become the first Welsh woman to reach the final of the championship.
