Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Can’t stop long. Got a date with Dave. He’s taking me to the flicks! Guess which film….I’ll give you a clue…. I don’t do Psycho head stuff, I don’t do War, I don’t do thrillers, I don’t do tragedy, I don’t do chick flicks and I don’t do porn – it makes my eyes water. So…. MARY POPPINS IT IS THEN !!!!!!!! Grace called yesterday, and was raving about it. Lucky girl got comp…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in, Friday’s blog a private peek, a little glimpse behind the scenes…. Today was a BIG DAY at Clarity. BIG ACHIEVEMENT. Did we get an invite from the Queen for cucumber sandwiches and tea at the Palace? ? Nah. Did we win a barrel load of awards? Nah. Much more important than that !! All the club envelopes went out! Woohoo !!! What a mammoth job this has been! See lovely Anna patiently and painstakingly…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. What’s the time? 8pm. Sheesh. I really must start doing my blog first thing in the morning, rather than last thing at night! And the state of this ere room! Shockorrer! There’s still a workable space though…. At times like this, when the clock is ticking, energy is dwindling, and that lovely bed is calling, there’s only one thing for it: SCRAP BOX !! I never throw anything away. It really is a condition,…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. And thanks for watching and cheering Maria along this afternoon on HOCHANDA! She did so well, didn’t she?! The designs by Mel are delightful as stencils, and I love them as Groovi. As always the ever clever Design Team created some pretty spectacular samples for the TV show…. And then to make them into Dies! Well!! Irresistible to me. Wait till you see next week’s Youtube! I have combined Gelpress printing with these Dies….
Hi there! Thanks for popping in! Paul, Simon and I been recording new YouTubes today actually, in readiness for the next few weeks. Paul and I both find Youtubing far more stressful than TV. Isn’t that strange?! I think it’s because you haven’t got anybody to bounce off; you’re on your own, every silence is yours to deal with, whereas a good presenter will always fill the gap for you and guide the show. The advantage is that you can…
Hi there!Thanks for popping in. Monday, Monday. New Blog Direction! We were having a meeting recently, and the Products of the Month came up. Did you know that every single month, 12 months a year, we launch a Product of the Month for all 4 of our core products: Stamps, Stencils, Groovi and now Fresh Cut Dies. Those products are reduced by 33% for the entire month, PLUS your Clarity Club Discount. Well worth further investigation, methinks! Now there are…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Just got in from a day out in London. A team of us went to the Top Drawer Trade Exhibition at Olympia. Stationery and Gift Show primarily. Velly intellesting… Must have walked miles! What happened to Earl’s Court?! It’s gone. Disappeared. Flattened! Didn’t know they pulled it down! Blimey! I remember going to see The Spice Girls there, with Grace and Mark when they were little kids. Awesome! Anyway. Back to the blog. As…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. On Wednesday, at 12 noon and 4pm, lovely Maria Simms is showcasing a pair of brand new Fresh Cut dies AND Groovi plates on HOCHANDA, which are so, so superb! Illustrated originally by our ever clever Mel Turner, you will be familiar with the designs as stencils, but things just got a whole lot more interesting… Recognise these beauties? They cut so perfectly, and are so delicate! I can’t get over how good these…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. TGIF! What are you up to this weekend? Anything exciting? Got anything crafty planned? I have…. Pottery tomorrow morning! Woohoo!!! It’s a throwdown session, in addition to the Wednesday class. Who says I’m addicted?! Can’t wait. Although I have to say that there is so much more to the art of pottery than working on a wheel. I want to learn the skill for sure, but I get a real buzz out of building…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. 3 hours in the dentist chair this morning. Just keeping your mouth wide open for 3 hours is bad enough, without all the drilling and cold water spray. I HATE the cold water spray. On sensitive teeth, it’s like torture. Now the drugs have worn off, I really don’t feel that great, so how about a quick step by step from the TV shows last Sunday, using one of those beautiful new Fresh Cut…
