A right Falafel!

A right Falafel!

Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Got up to the studios early evening, have been setting up the counter and getting everything ready for 10am tomorrow. Better to sort it out before bedtime. Makes for a softer pillow when you have a plan set for the next day. I like it in the studio in the evening too. It is pretty much empty, so you can just get on with the job. So tomorrow we will be celebrating 25 years…

A little bird told me….

A little bird told me….

Hi there Good of you to drop in. Didn’t Tina do a cracking job on TV today?! What a sell out star! She does make me laugh, too. Wicked sense of humour. What a massive asset she is to the Clarity Team. It’s getting quite steamy in the Clarity kitchen, I can tell you!! Jayne and the despatch team are still reeling from what went down on Sunday with the Little Bird dies. Blimey. Didn’t see that coming! Then Tina…

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. What a busy day ! It’s all go here, in the run up to our Weekend Celebrations on HOCHANDA. Yesterday went swimmingly, demos just came easily. This afternoon was a total waste of time. Wasn’t working, wasn’t gelling, wasn’t appenin. The air was blue by the time Dave turned up with the Fish n Chips. Half an hour later, a meal and a laugh later – and suddenly we know what to do. AND…

Fresh Cut Scraps – love it!!!

Hi there. Thanks for popping in on this Bank Holiday Monday. Not that I had a day off! The countdown is on till the next TV shows on Saturday and Sunday, so I really had to get a wriggle on today, and start my prep – especially as there’s Groovi on the menu!! Parchment shows take much longer to prep than stamp or die shows! Ask Linda and Tina!!! So I’ve spent the best part of today doing one blimming…

Happy 3rd Birthday HOCHANDA!!

Happy 3rd Birthday HOCHANDA!!

Hi there Thanks for popping in. It’s a bit late. Took hours to get home from the Studios. Accident on the M11, so decided to take a detour. Came back to Kent via Chelmsford or Copenhagen or something that started with a C. Not sure, but it was way out to the east! Never mind. Dave and I saw lots of lovely little towns and places, chatted our way through Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, Essex, Kent and East Sussex – and got home…

Beautiful Brand New Fresh Cuts Dies coming up!

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Stop the clock! All set for the 10am and 2pm on Hochanda tomorrow. Hope you can tune in! I have had a blast prepping the demos for these hours; I want to show you a trick, which is probably the oldest trick in Die-World! But in MY-World, it is über-cool !! And since I don’t look left or right, just stay in my lane and keep my eye firmly on the road ahead, I…

Thank you

Thank you

Hi there. Good of you to pop in. Been a big week here at Clarity. So glad you are as chuffed as we are, to welcome Leonie to the fold. Watch this space…. Friday’s blog a private peek, right? Several of you asked to see our wedding invites and stationery, so I thought I would show you the theme and how it evolved… It started with a little drawing of mine, which we then laser cut out, because I do…

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. It’s 7pm and I’m all art and crafted out. Do you mind if I just chat to you a bit, and explain what is coming up? I know I’m usually on on the first Sunday of every month. And I will be next week too!! But this weekend we are celebrating HOCHANDA’s 3rd Birthday. It really has been a whirlwind 3 years too. So much has happened since we launched with them! Groovi ,…

Oh HAPPY DAY.

Oh HAPPY DAY.

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Wednesday’s blog is when we try to look at WHY we craft, rather than WHAT we craft, n’est-ce pas? Well, like so many of you, over the years I’ve made friends for life through this little Clarity Community of ours. I work with a few of them too, which makes my life all the sweeter. Imagine being able to work with your best friends! That is pretty special. It works because whilst we share…
