Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Left Glasgow at 7.30 am, and just flicked the kettle on in our lovely warm kitchen at bang on 5pm. Made good time, and even swang by the TV studios to pick the car up, which we left there a week ago! Still a long way though. Don’t ping back like I used to. Thankfully we’ve got a week off before the NEC… So what did I do for 4 days at the SEC?…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Boy oh boy! As I said to my Dad last week, when we were haring between home and hospital, Life is definitely a full time job, innit ?! Happy to report that Mum is getting better and stronger by the day. And for that I am truly grateful. Paul is all set for 2 hours of Groovi goodness on HOCHANDA tomorrow at 8am and 12noon. He’s got a superb new idea to show you,…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Thanks to Paul for covering this ’ere blog in my absence. Mum had her hip surgery last Wednesday, and I am happy to report that she is back home and on the mend. It will take time, but she is a determined and strong woman, so I have no doubt that she will be back on top in no time – just in time to get the second hip replacement! Today’s been a busy…

Hi everyone. Today has been a mixed day weather-wise. Wind, rain, sunshine and rainbows. So I have spent all day inside, sorting out, tidying up, having an afternoon nap and doing some prep for my TV shows on the 28th at 8am & 12pm (yes, I know I am a tease!) Today I thought I would share a step-by-step with you of a card that I showcased on Hochanda last Saturday during the 2pm show It was made using the…
Hi everyone I hope you are all well. Another blustery day down here in Kent. Although I am being kept very warm on the naughty step by all of you who have taken advantage of the Leonie Celebration! The celebration continues until midnight on Monday and you can go directly to the sale HERE. Mixed Impressions – am I talking about people or art? I will stick to art – a lot easier! On Saturday we launched some beautiful Chinese…

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Just got lost in some colouring in. Such a relaxing, therapeutic thing to do, don’t you agree? I took Tina’s floral bouquet, and stamped it onto a scrap which has been hanging around my artroom for ages. It’s on our Clarity coated cardstock, hence the ultra glossy finish. Years ago, when we used to use this card, we struggled to apply colour to it. It was tricky to stamp on, and it was tricky…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Tying up preps and demos for this weekend.

Our clever Saffron created these – blimming excellent – so brilliant to use! Paul and I will be working together, and he will be demonstrating the Groovi version of these designs. Clever Karen Jackson has masterminded the demos for us, and Paul…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Are you a hat person? Do you wear hats? Does it keep you warm? Well, if you pull it right down, it keeps your ears warm for sure! That old wive’s tale about all the heat escaping out the top of your head is a load of old baloney apparently. But I must admit, I do feel warmer when I cover my head, don’t you? Mel drew a spectacular set of Hats, Shoes and…
