Hello there! Thank you for stopping by and many, many thanks for all the wonderful good wishes for Laura, Trevor and Baby Evie. Grandad Dave is a very happy man, and so is Nanny B! It sure takes you back. Aren’t they tiny?! But so so perfect. I remember Grace’s little fingernails, and being scared to cut them, and the realisation that my Mum had had to cut mine. It changed the way I perceived my Mum in an instant. …
Hello there! Thanks for stopping by! Wednesday’s blog is something new. Well it just doesn’t get much newer or more magical than this! I can’t chat long; we’re on our way to the hospital to see Laura, Dave’s daughter. We’ve got some very happy news: She had her baby in the wee small hours… We are so happy for her and Trevor. So so happy. That young couple have been through so much together. All is good. All is well….
Hello there! Thanks for stopping by. Hope you are happy and enjoying your day? Tuesday. Well, we’re having a YouTube Tuesday break, until September, but instead let’s get arty and glittery! Oh and then have a sale! Time for the lovely Christmas rounds and stencils. They mix & match rather well, so here I have used the Fairy Light Stencil with the Doves Stamp. The large 2-bird stamp, which looks a little like a ying and yang symbol, is beautiful…
Hello Monday! I hope this blog finds you in a good mood? My spirits were certainly lifted when I received this wonderful bouquet of freesias and roses from the ‘Scottish Team’. Thank you so very much, ladies! You shouldn’t have, as they say, but I am so grateful you did! Since Monday’s blog is TREES & FLOWERS, I got to thinking… The colours are so beautiful here, The pinks, reds, light greens, yellows and whites, I decided to borrow the…
Hello there! Thanks for stopping by. Just a very quick project today, using what I can find in this mess! Here’s that really cool shaving foam piece I did on TV : Fab. And here are all the other pieces rustled up from the same colour mix of Distress re-inkers: Tea Dye Faded Jeans Tumbled Glass Weathered Wood. Or just save a packet, and get the set! But which one to use…. Tescos own – 26p No! Which creation?! and…
Good morning. Thanks for popping in! It’s very early and I’m up with the larks, because I have to go to work and meet up with Jim, before he goes on holiday for a fortnight. There are a few things we need to tie up, so to speak, before he can fly away! So I’m thoroughly enjoying the big new open, empty space that is my new artroom. You know that adage, it’s going to get a whole lot worse…
Hello there! Thanks for stopping by! I’m actually having a day off today, but just wanted to share yesterday’s event with you, before we trundle off to the coast for the day, for a spot of fresh air… Now you may think this is just hype, that it’s all flannel, that I have to say positive things to stay in favour with the powers that be. Let me tell you the truth: I had so much fun! It was a pleasure from…
Hi there! Well, it’s Thursday today, and I’m having a Pre-Christmas blast on TV with Nigel, Leonie and Dave. 8am launch. That’s when we will introduce you to our new and rather super duper little Custom Christmas Concept. Then it’s 11am, 2pm, 4pm and 7pm. It’s been a quick turnaround, what with German TV on Tuesday, and all that jazz. Long days, short nights, and plenty of stress in between. So I’m afraid it just isn’t going to stretch to a…
Hello there. Wednesday already?? Something new. Scrambling big time today. Got back from Germany late late last night. Something new. Up to Peterborough this afternoon, for the Big Clarity Christmas Day tomorrow. Something new. I’m a stickler for prep, and I hate hate not being 100% prepared. Fail to prepare, prepare to fail! I’ve still got a few things which need tending to… Something new. So, just a quickie to let you know about Something new !!! A Brand New…
Hello there! Thanks for stopping by. Just a very quick lesson on How to use Clarity StampStamps. These are going to be on the Clarity Christmas show on Thursday in the afternoon, but whether I get to demo them is another thing. So I just wanted to show them off here, because in my opinion, they have to rank in the Top 10 Best Ideas Clarity ever had! Let’s make a quick tag. Well not that quick, unless you buy…
