Hi there Remember when we drew a set of seasonal beauties in the SHAC? We worked off a download grid, which gave us our spacing. It’s still available, by the way! Circle by circle, pattern by pattern, we drew a brilliant mandala together. I took some photos as we went along… Then we drew a little basic tree scene in the centre. This we changed to fit the seasons. And voila! We made a very cool set of versatile stamps…
Hi there Happy October 14th! Always a special day in our home – it’s Mum’s birthday. And so I shall meet up with brother Steve and Sheila, to take Mum for a nice lunch. We are so lucky – and we know it. She is 88 and going strong. Still runs her household like a well oiled machine, does all her own cooking and cleaning, laundry and ironing – and won’t have it any other way. She really is a…
Hi there. She’s back! Happy to fire up the SHAC bus this morning at 10. Let’s get together and finish up our Hopi Indian Kachinas together. Actually, let’s have a good old catch up, too. I’ll tell you all about what I did last week while we add a flash of colour and do a little shading… Then at 2, I thought it was a perfect day to bring out those Elementree stamp sets of ours. Absolutely LOVE these. The…
Hiya. It’s me again! Barb is back tomorrow, so how about a last little special offer on a fab festive set of dies? I love using these dies, and they are popular with our Clarity community too. They really lean into the spirit of the Christmas story. How does half price, plus your club discount, sound? I did speak to Barb, and she agreed that these are special, so we can run this offer until Midnight Friday. Whether you go…
Hiya! Sue here! Are we feeling festive yet? I really ought to get cracking with cards and pressies! Tell you which Christmas stamps I really like on the website. It’s those toys Wooden Toys we did last year. Especially the deer! Know which ones I mean? The stamps sets are so cute! And since our Barb has been in the woods with Dave all week, making chairs out of logs, I thought it only fitting that I get our wooden…
Hi! Louise here! Today is my turn to cover the blog whilst Barb is away. A perfect opportunity for me to shine a light on some brand new Christmas All in One A5sq Groovi plates by Tina Cox. Each plate also comes with a colour insert of the finished card to give you some inspiration. Here is the original artwork Tina has a great ability to take elements from various Groovi plates and come up with an amazing card. So…
Hi! Jilly here. My turn to shine a light on a cool Clarity product today! I am really into journaling and mixed media myself, so I thought, while Barb’s away in the woods, I’d move the dial on the price of the Water Colour pads and Petite journals we sell! Just till she gets back 😂 😂. If you get the A4 pad, we’ll pop the petite journal in FREE. Offer will end Midnight Sunday. While the cat’s away, the…
Hiya! Lisa here. I was asked to shine a light on a favourite Christmas range at Clarity for today’s Countdown blog. I just printed a load of Poppets again, and I have to say, they are pretty cute! There are loads of different Character Collections, but since this is the run up to Christmas, I will stick with these two packs: Happy Christmas and Festive Pixies Great for colouring, great for foiling, great for mini-makes! Half Price till Midnight Sunday….
Hi! Jazz here! My turn to shine a light on something Christmassy, while Barb’s away! I thought we could take a look at some really cool Mandala dies which I actually designed myself. I got a bit carried away, and drew loads, but since this is the countdown to Christmas, let’s just focus on the festive ones! These are like miniature nested dies. Each little Mandala comprises three separate designs. If you focus on the centres below, you will see…

The collection is full of festive charm and timeless designs that work beautifully for cards, tags, small gift wrap, and all sorts of mixed-media projects. Sometimes the best things don’t need reinventing – they just need bringing out…
