A new Collaboration…

A new Collaboration…

Hi there Just about to head out the door to Clarity Towers, to launch a new and exciting range of stamps, designed by the very creative and clever Nicola Elliot. She calls her brand Stamptagious, and we are happy to announce our partnership with her now. The thing is, we have always made for her. So you may well be familiar with her quirky, very mixed media style. When Hochanda / The Craft Store / Create & Craft let us…

A quick update…

A quick update…

Hi there Just a quick update. It’s been a while since I blogged! The days just seem to run away with me! Many many thanks for all the kind messages, cards, and gifts that Dave and I received last week. So thoughtful and generous! Dave is definitely making great progress, which is very heartening. I see the pain levels subsiding in his eyes as the days go on, and I see it in his movement too. So things are certainly…

A Gift from Me to You

A Gift from Me to You

Hi there It’s my birthday today, and, whilst I am starting to feel my age, I’m also very grateful to have reached 66! As our Grace always tells me, it’s a privilege not afforded everybody. So with that in mind, I am very happy to be here today, in very good health and with a loving family – I’m sure you understand me! That said, Dave and I will spend the morning at the hospital, because today’s the day they…

Off to Japan!

Hi there What a lovely Saturday we have had today. The sun was bright and shining in through the window early in the morning, and my absolute favourite tree – which I can see from the bedroom window – is coming to life! Can you guess what it is? The Magnolia Tree! It grows so well in this area. But it’s the one that waves from all the gardens, telling you that Spring is almost here! Spring officially arrives on…

Exciting New 1-2-3 Courses.

Exciting New 1-2-3 Courses.

Hi there I’ve been up since before 6 o’clock! With Dave being in hospital, it is all a bit strange. He’s in a lot of pain, and that makes me feel anxious, too. In fact I was woken by Erik, miaowing outside the bedroom window! He’d been out all night, and normally Dave let’s him in at the crack of dawn. So he must have been sitting outside the back door, waiting patiently. Then, when Dave didn’t open the door,…

How to find Clarity TV – loadsaroutes!

Hi there It’s like the buses! She doesn’t blog for a week, then 2 turn up on the same day! Let me explain why… I was waiting to watch Paul and Deborah at 10 am just now. So I have choices as to WHERE to watch them LIVE. I decided to take Route 1 to Clarity TV, which is through Facebook. As I was waiting patiently, on the Claritycrafts Facebook page, I thought to myself, I wonder how many people…

Hobbies & Pastimes

Hi there Good news! Dave had his knee surgery yesterday, and is recovering well. Before I go and spend the afternoon with him in hospital, I wanted to shine a light on today’s Clarity TV shows. Deb and Paul are set to entertain you at 10am and 2pm, with some superb stamps. Deb plans her own monthly shows, you know. She picks which stamps she would like to showcase, and we build the show around her selection. This month, I…

Sam’s Papers and a real Tree-t!

Sam’s Papers and a real Tree-t!

Hi there If you watched our Clarity TV today at 10 and 2, then you will have seen us lauding the praises of our Sam’s fabulous Mixed Media papers. They really work well with the new Landscape masks. Look! You can get three whole sets for less than a tenner, plus club discount. HERE I found a particularly effective little section of one sheet, which worked a Tree-t with the masks. Here’s a photo step-by-step… Add a little pink around…

Oranges and Lemons? Sounds a bit fishy!

Hi there Apologies for not writing for a week!
