A winner? Loads of winners!

A winner? Loads of winners!

Hi there.

Thanks for popping in . As promised, today is the day we announce the winners of all the giveaways and prizes over the HappyDaysClarityDays.

It’s taken a while! So many limericks, so many guesses at how long my blue Happy card took! A lot longer than most of you thought!!

So many lovely comments to read through too, and enjoy. Grace and I have worked our way through all the lists, and picked winners where there was an answer, and picked random winners where you just had to be in the room!

So here is is then, in order of blogposts…

Giveaway # 1

First prize of the day: this card with a £20 Clarity Gift Voucher:

183 people entered , and the lucky winner is:

Helen Whitehead.

Giveaway # 2

a Junior Lightwave, with superfoam and bag.

161 entries, and the lucky winner is:

Gemma Noronha

I’d love a lightwave so that I could use it with the residents where I work, to get them in the groove. Being elderly, they tend to suffer with poor eyesight

Giveaway # 3:

 Lorraine Denton

Giveaway # 4 :

a box of Pergaliner Pencils, + Blending Pen w/ Nibs

Giveaway # 7 –

THE LIMERICK


COMPETITION: Limerick. This was a little more challenging, yet we still had 73 entries! WOW


THE PRIZE? A Large Lightwave Bundle, Complete w/ Cover, Perforating Mat + Groovi Grip

It was so hard to choose! There were so many brilliant limericks. We read them reread them and rereread them! But there can only be one winner, and this was the one which tickled us pink:

There once was a groover called Dwight

who preferred to groove at night.

He was rather lewd

and grooved in the nude

It was not a pretty sight!

The worthy WINNER is

Alison Ainger

Giveaway # 8
COMPETITION:

Favourite Artistry Inkpad Colour?

PRIZE: Stencil Brush Bundle w/ Artistry Mini Inks

ENTRIES: 249

And the lucky winner is :

Ken Kilminster

So difficult to choose a favourite colour but one of the first I got was the very sunny colour GOLDEN TURMERIC – and of course turmeric is good for you (Dave says so!)

And finally,

Giveaway # 9

How long did this card take?

MEGA PRIZE for the finale: The Floral Alphabet Set + Folder

One of you got it exactly right – to the minute! There were 157 entries, and the winner is

Linda Dewar

This is what she said…

Brilliant. 2.45 hours. Beautiful simple looking card but a lot of work for the Dame Edna’s.  

Well done to all the winners. Thank you so much to all of you who joined in the Virtual Open Day fun! We will send out all the prizes this week.

Thanks to Grace too, for being such a rock this weekend! She also has lots of giveaways to announce on the Clarity matters blog. So maybe head on over there? You never know….

Time to stop.

Love and hugs

Oops Sorry! – What a fun weekend it was! Thoroughly enjoyed everything going on and appreciate all the effort and hard work that everyone put in. Thank you SO much!! X

  7. Well done all.

    Some mornings I shall miss joining the SHAC shack [but will do a catch up] as I am back caring for my grandchildren in a ”support bubble” I don’t want to miss any of the Doodling fun. XX

  10. Wow – so many entries and comments. Bet you and Grace had a lovely time together choosing the winners. Congratulations everyone and well done to the Clarity team for a lovely weekend x

  11. Huge congratulations to all the winners and a HUGE thank you to Barbara and Clarity for the last few days. Hopefully it won’t be much longer and the Clarity family can all meet at the open days again
    Xxxx

  12. Many congratulations to ALL winners -but then we are all winners to have been treated to so many demos and step by step instructions. Thanks for a fab virtual open day Barbara. I can’t cope with the real ones, even though they are within easy driving distance at Ditton, so it was great to feel included this year.

    1. What ? What happened to my reply ! It went as follows:

      Congratulations to all the winners ! Thanks for a lovely weekend and your generosity x

  13. Congratulations to all the lucky winners and thankyou Barb, Grace and your wonderful team for creating such an enjoyable weekend – all that hard work is most definitely appreciated. It certainly made up for not being able to be all together. xx

  14. Congratulations to all the winners, I didn’t expect to win, I tried!! It was a pleasure to join in.

  15. Congratulations to all the winners and congratulations to Clarity for once again going the extra mile to give us all such a splendid weekend

  16. Well done everyone who were lucky to win a prize. I also chose the winning limerick it certainly made me chuckle.

  17. Well done to all the winners. I think we are all winners with clarity. Thank you Barbara for a fun weekend x

  18. Hi Barb, sitting here chuckling to myself. My guess at how long your final HAPPY art took – 18 mins! Just shows you how deceiving it is watching you on telly and youtube demos. That could be a game changer for me actually, I get so disheartened at how long it takes me to do anything, thinking my meagre efforts take sooo long compared to how long things take you to achieve. I’ll remember this – what I see is probably an illusion, in real life it has probably taken you a long time too.

    Congratulations to all the winners, enjoy your prizes and spending your vouchers.

    Methinks it’ll be an early night for me again, don’t think I’ve even half way woken up at any point today… Night night xxx

  19. Oh wow, I can’t believe I’ve just seen my name as a winner – thank you so much Barbara and Grace and all at Clarity. It was a great fun weekend and thanks to the brilliant endeavours of Team Clarity, the amazingly inspirational Design Team and the “attendance” of so many friends and fellow crafters from the Clarity Family, it really filled the gap of not being able to attend this year’s Open Days at Ditton. Looking forward to actually being there next year! (missed the chats with Dave and Paul at the tills – still managed the odd order or two though!) Happy Days, Clarity Days!

  20. Congratulations to all the prize winners. Thanks once again to all the Clarity team especially Barbara & Grace for a great weekend

  21. Hi Barbara
    Oh I was way out with the time! I should have guessed longer as I know you are a perfectionist and would have got the shading on it just right! It’s a beautiful card though so no wonder. Congratulations to all the winners and thank you for a great weekend of fun and laughter.
    Love Diane xxx

  22. Wow! I can’t believe it! I never win anything!!! Thank you so much I’m looking forward to trying to motivate some of the residents to get in the groove using it xx
