Hi there.

Thanks for popping in. Been in meetings all afternoon, making a plan for this coming Saturday. Paul, Jilly and I are sharing the load on this one, for which I am very grateful! Way too much on my assiette at the moment! You know when you’ve bitten off more than you can chew, don’t you. So it‘s good to be able to ask a friend – or two!!

We’ve been working on a new line of stamps for Pergamano, you see. For the first time ever, we have licensed beautiful art from a well known artist : Marina Fedotova, a Russian lady. I fell in love with these little characters the minute I saw them! Look!

I’m not usually a fan of cutsie, but I have to say, these are so gorgeous, how can you not love them?! Just beautiful. On Saturday evening, at 6pm we will be showcasing these little Poppets, as we have called them, on HOCHANDA.

The art samples have been pouring in from the Clarity Design team. Just breathtaking! There were a couple in particular from lovely Carole Panksztelo, which I kept going back to…

When Cute meets mixed media. How wonderful, eh?

I thought we’d have a little bloggy competition. You see, we had great fun at Clarity Towers giving these little poppets names.

Here are the 6 names:

Pearl

Pumpkin

Presh

Pud

Pru

Paloma

You’ve guessed it! First, write one word below, describing the new Pergamano Poppets. And be nice! They are super sensitive…

Next, match the name with the correct Poppet. Write the answers, 1-6 (the poppets are numbered above) in an email and send to Barbara@claritystamp.com. I will put all the correct answers in a hat, and on Saturday at 6pm on live TV we will draw the lucky winner of a £40 Clarity Gift Voucher. Gottabeinittawinnit, right?!

And now it’s time to stop for the day. All set for our SHAC-Shack doodle session at 10 tomorrow too. Are you? xxx

Love and hugs
