Hi there. Haven’t played with a die for a while. Found this trap-the-scrap piece from one of our Fresh Cut Funky Foliage Leave & Trees Dies, and decided to turn it into a card for someone special. She likes a little bling, so here goes…. Trap the white card scrap from the die on a double-sided adhesive sheet. Then simply cover it in Gilding flakes. We sell lots of different colours – really nice! Use the yellow sponge to buff…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Just a quickie. So glad this morning’s water colour SHAC-Shack was well received! I think we’ll have a good week, developing those new ideas and perhaps trying them out on different subjects! I had a real hankering to colour in our toadstools from last week’s woods, but was way too busy with so much else all afternoon. I saw somebody else on facebook had done it too, beautifully, and wanted to try it even…
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. 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 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 joining me. Hot or what?!? Just a quickie today, to shed a little light on the upcoming TV shows tomorrow at 9am and 1pm on HOCHANDA. My favourite kind of arty, grungy, Gelpressy printy stuff! A beautiful new Mixed Impressions double set, called Ocean Swirl, plus a double stencil set. The large loose pieces are just what you NEED in your life!! I got up at stupid o’clock this morning, to get the Hochanda filming done…
Hi there lovely peeps! What a weekend! Long, but fun! It has been great hustling back and forth across the ocean with Gracie, keeping these virtual Clarity Open Days going. She has done such a cracking job, as have our lovely DT friends, who have been posting and sharing, inspiring and entertaining. The cool thing about Gracie being 5 hours behind us is that she is still going strong, while I am winding down slowly. So more giveaways on the…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Time to get back up on the chair for a cheeky little Open Days Giveaway, methinks! Hands up who has got our Clarity Stencil brushes! Hands up who hasn’t! And hands up who wants a set! The thing about our brushes is you just can’t have enough of them. EVER! Check out my stash !! That doesn’t include the ones on the table… …or the ones in my Glastonbury pot that I wove –…
Hi there Happy friday! In fact Happy Day – Clarity Day! Sitting here, looking out of my SHAC-Shack window, waiting to go live on Facebook and finish our lovely Humming bird postcard, and am thinking about what we should e doing today. Dave wrote a great blog on Wednesday on Clarity Matters, about where we should be and where we are. Today, we should be scurrying around the huge lovely hall in Ditton, welcoming our Clarity guests to our Open…
