Hi there Thanks for popping in! Well, we’re as ready as we’ll ever be! Slight change of plan on the presenter front. So I’m working with Dean at 6pm !!! I know, right? I just told you he and I are close friends – and lo! There he is. So that will be good. Here is a summary of the timetable of birthday events this weekend, just in case you fancy keeping us company. Looks like the Floral ABC is…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. I got caught up making little cards today, out of the new 4×4 inch card blanks and envelopes that are pouring out of the Pinky Gray printroom at the moment, in readiness for our 31st Birthday weekend on Create & Craft! I used a print I had made using the new leafy layering stencils, which wasn’t very exciting as a whole. In fact, I didn’t even bother taking a photo of it. Yep. That…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Wednesday’s blog something new, right? Well, I’ve got not ONE but TWO new things I want to share with you: Next up, let’s take a look at those new stencils I’m talking about. Actually, let’s look at the monoprint I made using them first… Right. Two sets, each with 3 stencils. Well actually, there’s loads in each pack. You get the inny AND the outy. Perfect for use with ink and brushes, but also…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Trip down Memory Lane it is then! I scrolled back through my photos to a year ago today. And lookie lookie! Teabags! Remember this? I do love our Linocut stamps too! They are right up my street… I was filling one of our lovely little water colour Petite Journals with Teabag images. It really was a pleasure to do! Pity I haven’t had time to finish it. YET. There’s that lovely little word again….
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Before you wonder why I’m shouting about the SHAC today, when we‘re having a little break until October, well it’s Monday, and I have been thinking about things. This daily blog is a moving feast, right? So I’ve decided to modify our little verse which we wrap the weekly blogs around. Monday’s Blog – We’re in the SHAC!Tuesday’s blog – The clock goes back. So when we do get back together in the SHAC…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Happy Sunday. Dave and I decided to work this morning, “to get ahead of the week ahead” as we say! He was heading for our Clarity Printroom, to die cut 5×5 inch scored white card blanks on the old Heidelberg press. They’re for next Saturday’s new Card-stitch packs. Conversation ran like this… Me? I just had to empty all the demo boxes from last Friday’s TV shows, and make a start on what’s coming…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. It’s nice to be indoors today. It is persisting down outside! Raining the proverbial cats and dogs! And Ragnar is out there in it somewhere! We reckon he’s got a hide out and a little minx on the side. We reckon Ragnar Lodbrok is leading a “double-life” … Erik the Red on the other hand, is curled up asleep in front of the Aga, like any other sensible, self-respecting Viking! Yesterday was busy. TV…
Hi there. Busy TV day today. I knew you’d love those backdrop style silhouette stamps! Did you have a favourite? I think the Japonica stamp from the floral set, the one I used in the first demo, that was the one I fell in love with. Thank you for shopping with us – it’s what make the wheels turn. Without you, no Clarity. Friday’s blog a private peek? Well, I know many of you wonder about Ragnar and Erik, our…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. The weather’s definitely on the turn down here in the south east of England. Jumpers, socks and boots back out! Flip flops be gone! Maybe we’ll have an Indian Summer? I guess we just have to be grateful we’re not being flooded, or on fire, or in a landslide. I can cope with cool and wind, mixed with rain, can’t you? Right. Thursday’s blog is always blue. So let’s take a peek at a…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Wednesday’s blog is something new, right? Well, to be fair, we’re always working on new designs! At any given moment, there will be at least a dozen stampsets, a bunch of stencils, a collection of Groovi plates and a few dies in the pipeline. And that doesn’t even include all the new products that are already complete, neatly stacked and waiting for launch day! Presenting on TV requires that we bring new things to…
