Hi there Thanks for popping in. I’ve said this before, and I shall say it again: I consider our 3-way overlay stamps to be the best stamping design idea we’ve had in many years. I really do. And now I’m into Lino-cutting, and thereby have gone further down the road of printing and letterpress printing, I appreciate them even more! So I was pretty surprised to see we are retiring a few of them, and have included a selection of…
Hi everyone, Paul here. I hope you are all well and enjoyed the Jubilee Celebrations. I’m currently up at the Create and Craft studios getting ready to launch a brand new One Day Special at 6pm this evening. Are you ready to continue your journey on the Groovi bus and enter to the world of lace/grid work? Then I hope you can join me this evening on the new Create and Craft at 6pm & 9pm where I will be…
Hi everyone, Paul here. I hope you are all well and had a good weekend. The weekend was a bit of a blur for me after Friday’s TV shows on the new Create and Craft. It was a very long day, left the house at 3am and with a few overnight road closures and diversions arrived just before 6am! Left the studio at 3pm and ran into all the normal Friday afternoon traffic and arrived back at the house just…
Hi everyone, Paul here. I hope you are all well. I seem a little out of sync this week. I think it must be staying in a strange house, not that Barb and Dave’s house is strange! I suppose it is what you are used to, at least I don’t have to worry about jet lag! Ragna and Erik have got used to the new routine (still not sure which is Ragna and which is Erik!) although I know that…
Hi everyone, Paul here. Don’t panic, I haven’t started writing in code! I thought I would shine a light on the additions to this weeks W.I.G.I.G (When It’s Gone, It’s Gone!) As you know, we’re always adding beautiful new designs to our library of stamps, stencils, Groovi plates and Fresh Cut dies, and sometimes you just need to make a space on the shelf! This is where W.I.G.I.G comes into play! With 60% off plus your club discount, it’s a…

Hi everyone, Paul here.I hope you are all well. Strange weather in this neck of the woods! This morning we had heavy rain at Clarity Towers and now it is glorious sunshine – as Barb always say “If you don’t like the English weather, then just a wait a minute!” Anyway, I thought I would give you the heads up, just in case you didn’t know – the lovely Tina Cox will be on the new Create and Craft tomorrow…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Life’s a Bowl of Cherries…. Mmmmmm…Ya think? I decided to investigate, and find out where that saying comes from. Originating as the title of a song (1931) by Lew Brown (lyrics) and composer Ray Henderson, it was performed by lots of favourites, from Doris Day to …lookie lookie… Judy Garland. I thought we could take a look at the lyrics while she sings them to us… Life is just a bowl of cherriesDon’t take it…
Hi there Thanks for popping in! Here in the UK we ’re gearing up to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee. 70 years on the Throne, in service to the country, is an exceedingly long time, isn’t it? Whatever your opinion re the Royal Family, you have to admit that is one hell of an achievement. Seventy years. My oh my. She could write the proverbial book for sure! I would love to write it for her! Poor woman lost…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Beautiful sunny Sunday here in the Southeast. Pottery this morning, and back in the Clarity saddle this afternoon. Did you get a chance to watch our Clarity Mixed Media Friday TV show on the new Create & Craft? I was showcasing our lovely Blockprint stamps. I really like them. There’s something very arty, edgy and earthy about them. I think also that they can be whatever the occasion begs: vibrant and bright, soft and…
