Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Been in meetings all afternoon, making a plan for this coming Saturday. Paul, Jilly and I are sharing the load on this one, for which I am very grateful! Way too much on my assiette at the moment! You know when you’ve bitten off more than you can chew, don’t you. So it‘s good to be able to ask a friend – or two!! We’ve been working on a new line of stamps for…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Been a creative, constructive, uplifting day here. Spent the morning in my little Wendy house, prepping for tomorrow’s SHAC Shack Doodle session at 10am. Really looking forward to this coming week now I know where the bus is headed! Not going too far afield this time. I think a Staycation is in order, don’t you? Then I went for a long walk with Mel and her dogs. It rained a little, but that was…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. It’s been quite a week in the SHAC-Shack, colouring in our Owls. Judging from the progress snapshots of Clarity Worldwide, i’d say you enjoyed it too. Don’t you get a real buzz when something turns out that well? I haven’t finished mine, but I am chuffed thus far too. Here is my little parliament before the Nightsky session today… And here they after after… Still got a bit to do, but tawittawoo! I am…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Been beavering away this afternoon, prepping for the 1pm TV Show on Saturday . That’s our SHAC-Shack hour, sandwiched between Linda’s fabulous Groovi Owls. She’s designed a couple of new Christmas ones, which Paul and Linda will showcase together at 11am and 3pm. This little piggy here is in charge of the 1pm show. Thing is, there’s so much to show you! I’ve done so many demos! And I know an hour’s just not…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. The diet is changing direction here…. Did you know that you can eat dandelions? Yummy! Very good for you apparently… In traditional Chinese and Native American medicine, dandelion root is used to treat stomach and liver conditions. Herbalists believe that it can aid in the treatment of many ailments: acne, eczema, high cholesterol, heartburn, gastrointestinal disorders, diabetes, and even cancer. Certainly cheaper than over the counter drugs, eh?! Tomorrow at 1pm and 5pm, dandelions are on the HOCHANDA menu too! A la…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Have to remind myself that sometimes simple is super. Sometimes the simplest things are not only easiest, but classiest. And sometimes, when we keep it super simple, we focus just on the artwork, on the design. Here, for example. These fabulous whimsy Hare designs by Mel are complex in and of themselves. Little masterpieces just as they are, each and every one… Available individually and as a set of 4. You can’t really add…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Been having a right old Feng Shui Session in the Shac-Shack! A wise woman suggested I move 27 things to get the flow, the good energy moving again… how about 2,700 things out the door?!? And then, when it was almost done and dusted, I ran out of steam. WIll have a fresh look at it tomorrow morning. But before I collapse in front of the box, let me post a simple project I…
Hi Thanks for popping in.

Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Delighted to confirm that those extra individual Polychromos pencils I mentioned yesterday are already in da house! I know, right?! So they’re loaded on our website, both individually and as a little 12-piece bundle. CLICK HERE TO FIND I am so pleased, because after a little break in the SHAC-Shack next week, Owls are up on the colouring postcards, and the beiges and greys are pretty key. So it was going to be great…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Been prepping for Sunday’s rather special One Day Special. Remember those fab Garden Groovi Plates by Linda Williams? Well, we’ve turned them into a magnificent collection of Garden Stamps. Honestly! I can‘t stop building scenes with them! The possibilities are endless! And as if that wasn’t irresistible already, have you got those Entwined Season stamps I drew a few months ago? These ones: Wait till you build the scenes within these frames! Like this:…
