90 days to Christmas! Today we’re taking a closer look at our new Vintage Christmas Papers – tartans, checks and nostalgic designs, perfect for festive cardmaking.
I enjoy the process. And today, that particular affirmation couldn’t be more fitting! Yesterday we waved goodbye to a fantastic, wonderfully creative group after two full-on arty days together, and today we welcome our second bunch of Retreat guests – another really arty crew, I know! There’s a brand new process for them to learn today too, and that really is what this is all about. Not worrying too much about the finished piece, or whether we’ve got it “right”,…
My imagination knows no limits. That sounds a bit big headed, but I don’t mean that I have the greatest imagination in the world! Not at all. I mean that there really are no rules or boundaries when we use our imagination. We can go anywhere, try anything, mix things up, change direction halfway through and make something that has never existed before. Nobody can tell you that what you’re imagining is wrong. And I’ve been seeing wonderful proof of…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. This afternoon on Clarity Social TV, Paul and I will be introducing a brand new collection of Wee Stamps. Three A5 stamp sets of little characters. We are calling these our Wee Family & Friends – Life & Love, Dream & Wonder, Childhood Days. We also made a set of ALL the characters in miniature. These are absolutely brilliant – not only for Mini Makes, but also for creating depth and perspective. See here?…

We were launching this month’s Product of the Month: A set of Butterfly stamps, hand drawn by myself, and a new pack of very summery Cloud cards to add to our Elements range. I was demonstrating a pair of cards…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Sunday morning feels like a good time for stories…. There are certain places in the world that leave a mark on your soul. For me, New Mexico and Arizona have always been amongst those places. Dave and I were fortunate enough to spend some time there again this April during a wonderful 3,000-mile road trip through the American Southwest and California. It was one of those journeys that stays with you long after you’ve…
Hi there Happy Sunday. I went for a Japanese meal with my good friend Carron the other evening. She talked about “Santosha”. A Sanskrit term, meaning “complete contentment”, “satisfaction”. “acceptance”. Carron does yoga, and in Yoga philosophy, it represents an internal state of peace that is independent of external circumstances or material possessions. I guess it’s what I’ve always referred to as “an inside job”. Apparently, when we speak of acceptance in connection with Santosha, we don’t mean settling for…
