Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just prepping for tomorrow’s two Facebook Live events at 3pm and 7pm. Thought I’d shine a little light on the afternoon Moment of Clarity, and the little Güd Folk. We like these! Do you remember when we started doodling these little Gnomes last December? Where does the time go? If you missed the SHAC episode, it all started HERE and we started to colour them in HERE We ended up with these little Güd…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Mind the piles of demo boxes and crafty gear as you come in though! Bomzitit springs to mind. The cats would never find their way out of here! It looks like it’s either been burgled, or I’m moving out, which is about right! Everything but the kitchen sink is going up to the TV studios tomorrow, in readiness for the BIG WEEKEND : It’s our Clarity 28th Birthday! Woohoo. Glad to still be here…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Have been clearing away all the demo gear from Friday’s TV shows this afternoon. I didn’t touch half the demos, but you know how it is – fail to prepare, prepare to fail! Thing is, you see, if you don’t have everything exactly there in front of you, ready to reach for, you really have NO time to start looking and faffing. Even after all these years, I go through the demos again and…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. It’s birthday weekend at the CraftStore (was HOCHANDA), so we thought we’d do something special for them, and make some funky Birthday Stamps! The 9am show certainly Happy Birthday rocked! Glad you liked them! Lisa designed the Happy Birthday stamps… Cherry Green illustrated the numbers and funky bugs…. I designed the stencils… And Dave is in charge of the cut outs! Check this out! Makes such a difference ! And in case you were…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Still ticking boxes like a loonie here. It’s the only way forward for this old chick at the moment. Keeping busy and keeping focussed. We can call it being mindful, and we can also call it staying on top of things. Bit of both. With the world in such turmoil, we crafters are very, very lucky to have creative distraction. I was talking to Linda Williams this morning, about the next Craftalong we’re doing…
Hey there Thanks for popping in. I have some really exciting news to share with you! I mentioned in the last Clarity Craft Club newsletter I wrote last week, so you may already have received that if you’re in the club, so to speak! It has been a while since I last did A Moment of Clarity. Barb’s Workin’ Life, as you know, has been put on the old backburner for the last few weeks. But this week she’s getting…
Hey there Thanks for stopping by. Can’t stop long. Going to get Dad out of hospital, so I’m writing super fast! It’s Day 34 for him! That’s such a long time! Can’t wait to get him home with Mum. Just wanted to throw a light on some new plates designed by Tina Cox that Paul will be launching on The Craft Store (aka Hochanda) tomorrow during The Pergamano Shows at 11am and 3pm. 4 funky doodled landscapes. Lisa took some…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Having you been joining Linda in The Pergamano Summer School via Facebook and YouTube the past four weeks? Linda has been guiding us gently through the Pergamano Handbook for Multi-Needle Tools Volume One. Since she wrote the book, who better to take us on this super trip?! For the past 4 weeks, we have been working with various tools covered in the book. Here is what we have covered so far: Lesson 1 –…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Grace left for New York this morning, and the house is very quiet. She’s such a bundle of good energy and joy! Despite extending her stay, just like her brother who had to get back to SF to work, she wasn’t able to see her Grandad either, because he is still in hospital. It’s been almost a month now. Who could have foreseen this? But he’s in the right place and getting stronger by…
Hi everyone! Paul here, I hope you are all well. I am up at The Craft Store studios (aka Hochanda) getting all set to launch a brand new One Day Special at 6pm designed by the lovely Linda Williams – Time for Tea, Coffee & Cake in stamps! You may recall back in March we launched the Groovi version, and if I recall rightly it flew out the door. After the show, we had many requests for them to be…
