Evening Donna have you managed any crafting? Xxx
Hi Donna,hope you've had a good Monday. Had a bit of a play with some stamps before I made tea tonight. Don't laugh, Easter stamps. Love and hugs Pam xxx
Not tonight, catching up on recorded programmes. Woke up this morning with a blood red eye, so have been freaking the children out all day! I even covered it up with a post it note with an eye drawn on it. Xx
Wow Pam, I thought Sheila was getting ahead by practicing for February, but doing Easter stamping is very impressive! Xx
Donna, I had a go with the chromo card this afternoon. The talc trick really works, no sliding at all. Part of my problem is that the stamp I was using has a bit of dip in it so I press too hard. If I press lightly I can fill in any gaps with an alcohol pen. Next time I plan to make a card I will practise first. Thanks for your help.
Hi Donna
Oh no, the eye doesn't sound good – I'm sure they would have sent you home if you were a child! Like the idea of the post it note eye – what a great idea ( or should that be eyedea!) this teaching lark isn't good for your health is it. Take care of yourself and happy crafting xxxxx
Hi Jan, glad to hear the stamping was a success I have used talc on acetate which is shiny like chromo card and it definitely helped. Happy crafting! Xx
Eye eye Donna xxx
Haaaa haaaaa Diane! Eyedea! That made me laugh, the children were funny. It was an equal mix of horror and concern! One even asked if I was going to get a metal eye as mine was broken. I told him mine was fine to which he replied with a look of sorrow (and a sigh) "I don't think so, you should get a new one". Xx
Hope your eye isn't painful, do you think you rubbed it in your sleep? So funny how the children reacted, like your post it idea.xx
Aye Aye Captain had that does look a wee bit scary especialy to the wee ones hope it clears soon wish I could turn this nightshift routine round but know you clock in wi yer breaky so morning my wee bloggy friend. xx
Morning Dot, I just need an eye patch then I really will be a pirate captain. Cornflakes with warm milk today, need to find some nutty porridge like Sheila. Enjoy your day. Xx
Aye nutty porridge wee packs in the microwave brilliant. .xx
Fantastic, congratulations to you, Dave and your team. Very well deserved. xx

Hi Sheila,my back has been a bit easier today thank you, using the Ibuprofen regularly, hence doing little craft. Never guess though my knee is painful now, must be how I'm walking to compensate for it. One thing after another, can only get better.xx

Congratulations on your well deserved awards ! xx
How fantastic is that! Huge congrats xxx
Fantastic News many Congratulations Barbara Dave and the Clarity team nobody could deserve it more this here blog has meant more to me than gold this last couple of years so thankyou…love Dot..xx
That's blooming awesome Barbara! Way to go Clarity and her awesome team! I also think it's more than deserved too. I am spring cleaning my stamps, stencils, all of that stuff right now and it's funny because some of the stamps, not Clarity, are having to be thrown out after just one or two uses, they won't stick to any block and bit bit they fall apart.
The Clarity stamps may not stick to the block as well, but that's what a pritt type stick (nothing nasty in, no acid) is for. Some of my Clarity stamps are fifteen years old and still going strong. They are mine and god forbid anyone says maybe you should move them on – not if they want to keep their hands I tell them. They make me smile, I remember when I bought, how often I have used, or not, and then I think must dig that one out again lol!
Buy Clarity stamps and you have them for life! Karen xx
Congratulations, well deserved xx
Congratulations that is awesome news and so well deserved. Hugs xxx
Congratulations to you and your team you deserve it.
Great results Barb – to me you're gold all the way! Well deserved x
