Hi there. Nice of you to drop in. Actually, only just got in! Long day! What happened to the blog tonight? This happened to the blog tonight! Revving up for next week’s retreats. Prepping and planning with our Ian. It always looks worse just before it gets better…. It’s all there too, just not in the right bins or trays! So much still to do! I do so hope you like what I have planned! Will it be Groovi? Yes!…
Hello there. Welcome to our Mindful Wednesday blog. I say OUR, because we are certainly building a little community here. I get it. I really do. We obviously want to enjoy our days more than perhaps we sometimes do. And here is a place where we can go to, to perhaps pick up a few pointers. Not everything I say here will resonate with everyone. That would be impossible. But if anything, just one little thing, can help somebody, anybody, …
Hi there! Apologies for posting so late! YouTube Tuesday, and we have here what I think is a real endorsement of Groovi potential. When you look at the detail in these Snowflake Plates, you really get the picture. Literally. These two plates will give you hours of pleasure – of that I’m sure. Snowflakes Christmas Groovi Plate Set Combine them with the Groovi Plate Starter Kit, and off you go! Starter Kit See you tomorrow. Mmmm. Mindful Wednesday and a…
Hi there, Well, that’s day one of the week almost done. Did you enjoy your Monday? Mine was hectic, but productive. Lots of plate spinning; no casualities – yet! So let’s chillax and do a little canvas. That’s what I fancy. A little canvas. Nothing too big. Not today. I think I’ll go with a 6″ x 6″. Good, manageable size. First things first. Let’s brayer a layer of Concrete or Cheesecake Fresco Acrylic Chalk Paint. Couldn’t find my Cheesecake……
Hi there! How are you today? How am I ? Well, I’ve got a thist of dings to lo as yong as my larm; if fact, I think I just saw myself fly past the window! I keep humming this tune, which is never a good sign…. But joking aside, one day at a time is the only way forward. So the first thing today is you, and our blog. Here’s a simple step-by-step card for you to try. The…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in on this sunny Saturday. Saturday’s blog a new technique, right? The question which has been on my mind all week is Do stencil and parchment work together? Only one way to find out, and I even procured a brand new stencil for the occasion! Introducing the lovely, arty and oh so useful Skeleton Leaf Stencil: The question I wanted to answer was whether parchment would pick up the stencil design when run through a…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Friday’s blog a private peek, right? Well, I’m sure you have heard me mention my friend Sazz, or Sally-Ann Hanes, or Sally. She responds to lots of names mostly! Anyway, not only is she a cherished member of the Clarity Design Team; she also runs the Clarity Challenge Blog, AND is our regional tutor for Clarity Crafters East Midlands and Clarity Crafters Nottingham. All that in addition to working full time and keeping Mark,…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Thursday blog is always blue, right? So I decided to lose myself in the groove this evening. Late night last night; early start this morning! Lots of thinking, action, planning, listening. So what better way to wind down and clear the head than get in the groove and stay there for an hour or so… I’ve been itching to try this new netting Groovi Plate! And I am DELIGHTED with the result. Just exactly…
Hello there, Welcome to our Mindful Wednesday blog, where we are learning how to live in the NOW, and not waste our precious lives fretting about stuff we can’t control, or panicking about shit that will probably never happen. Last week, we talked about the power of hugs. I could use a good hug right now! Where are Steve and Dave when you need them! Here I am, scrambling to get out of the door to a late night TV…
Hello there! Thanks for stopping by. Today is You Tube Tuesday, so here’s a groovi little card, putting the new Christmas Border Plates to good use! Enjoy. I actually got to do this demo on TV on Sunday. Leonie used a good word, when we were doing the corners: Mitred corner. That word eluded me when I was doing this demo. Mitred. Not bevelled. Mitred. Love and hugs,
