Hi there! Happy Sunday to you! What a very enjoyable day yesterday! We hosted our first online Gel Plate printing Course in the Clarity Circle. Jazz and I spent a smashing, creative day together, together with many of you ! If you did attend, I hope you learnt loads and had a great experience. If you did, please leave a review on Clarity Worldwide or below; one that you would allow us to use in our promotions. The thing is…
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 there Well 89 days to go, and I think it’s time to stock up on card blanks and envelopes! If you want your handmade cards to truly shine, it all starts with the foundations – the card blank. No matter how beautiful your stamps, stencils, or artwork are, if the base card is flimsy or uneven, the finished piece will never feel quite right. Good quality card blanks give your projects strength, stability, and that professional finish that makes…
Hi there Early start here. Off up to HobbyMaker, for 2 shows, 1pm and 4pm. Looking forward to them. Let’s hope things go better than last time! Err, yes. Dave is driving me up there! And what’s it all about, Alfie? Well, it’s all about Mini Makes and our A4 Sampler stamp sets. But it’s actually about a lot more than that. In a world that is going bonkers, it is important to be able to escape into art, to…
Hi there Just a quick step-by-step demo for you, because the Clarity fresh Cuts Die sale ends tonight at midnight! I came up with a cool trick whilst making the August ATC card for my partner of the month, which I want to share with you BEFORE the Die Sale ends! You will soon see why! Here’s where we’re headed… You can see that I’ve made more than a card too! Why stop there when you’re having fun?! I enjoyed…
Hi there Just a quickie to let you know we’re back in Blighty! Maybe you didn’t even realise we were gone! And in we, I mean Sam Crowe and myself. She and I went on a 3-week long, arty, inspiration gathering road trip, from San Francisco to Albuquerque. It was pretty epic, and we did indeed experience so, so much. There were things we had planned, and there were things that simply presented themselves; we seized those unique moments with…
