Hi there Just got off the phone to our friend, Janice Phillips. She’s wending her way down to Kent this evening, in readiness for the launch of her beautiful BEAUTIFUL photo stamps on Clarity Social TV tomorrow at 10am. We’re calling them her Timestamp Collection. I have been playing for hours! We’ve also been busy printing postcards. Simply perfect… The thing about these images, is that they work so so well with so so many different backgrounds. Whether you want…
Hi there! I was scrolling back through my photo library, looking for something specific. My oh my!! There’s so much artwork!! Years and years and years of projects, of step by steps. Crazy really. And I remember most of the artwork too. There’s a definite chronology, and I can see when Groovi entered the picture, when masks were introduced, when Linda came on board – it’s like a time lapse. But there‘s one collection of stamps which draws me back…
Hi there Before I climb up the apple n pears to winkin blinken and nod, I just want to thank everybody who joined in this afternoon, with our first official paid online Workshop. Judging by the dozens of fabulous landscape scenes which have been proudly popping up all over Facebook, I’d like to say, it was a success! You have to have it in your hand in front of you to really get how cool it is! This artwork is…
Hi Went for our flu jab, which was pretty rapid! In one door and out the other! Literally one minute from entry to exit. God bless the NHS. Then went for an early walk up on the forest with Dave, to clear the head. Got to keep it in the day, stop projecting. Serves no purpose. I decided to clear up my art room when we got back; what a mess it was! Still hadn’t even cleared away the boxes…
Hi there! There’s something new on the horizon at Clarity.

Hi there Thanks for popping in. Wednesday’s blog something new, right? Well, I’ve got not ONE but TWO new things I want to share with you: Next up, let’s take a look at those new stencils I’m talking about. Actually, let’s look at the monoprint I made using them first… Right. Two sets, each with 3 stencils. Well actually, there’s loads in each pack. You get the inny AND the outy. Perfect for use with ink and brushes, but also…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Trip down Memory Lane it is then! I scrolled back through my photos to a year ago today. And lookie lookie! Teabags! Remember this? I do love our Linocut stamps too! They are right up my street… I was filling one of our lovely little water colour Petite Journals with Teabag images. It really was a pleasure to do! Pity I haven’t had time to finish it. YET. There’s that lovely little word again….
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Wednesday’s blog is something new, right? Well, to be fair, we’re always working on new designs! At any given moment, there will be at least a dozen stampsets, a bunch of stencils, a collection of Groovi plates and a few dies in the pipeline. And that doesn’t even include all the new products that are already complete, neatly stacked and waiting for launch day! Presenting on TV requires that we bring new things to…
Hi there Thanks for popping in! Day 2 of the Retreats – and a good time was had by all. The artwork our guests created was so good!! The mask work this afternoon was pretty impressive! I had to take photos of a few – they were so excellent! It was really heart-warming to watch the smiles on faces, when they stood back and looked at what they had achieved. I love that. And when folks came up at the…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Early Saturday morning here. The roads are quiet, the birds are even quiet for once. Just that irritating neighbour of ours, who must be digging a new channel tunnel from 50 miles inland. Just dig, dig digging, chip, chip, chipping away…ah well…live and let live. If he’s digging for France, I’m embarking on a new adventure too! Slightly less arduous, and probably a lot more constructive! In case you haven’t heard, we are working…
