Hi there If you watched our Clarity TV today at 10 and 2, then you will have seen us lauding the praises of our Sam’s fabulous Mixed Media papers. They really work well with the new Landscape masks. Look! You can get three whole sets for less than a tenner, plus club discount. HERE I found a particularly effective little section of one sheet, which worked a Tree-t with the masks. Here’s a photo step-by-step… Add a little pink around…
Hi there I simply cannot believe that a whole week has gone by since I last wrote a blog! That’s bonkers! Just thought I’d pop in and post a pic of our make in the SHAC this morning, and there it was! Last Monday’s make staring at me! Ah well. No point in fretting. I guess it’s been a busy few days! It was evident that my fellow SHACKERS really enjoyed letting their hair down, and doodling those little people…
Hi there Snowed on the way home today. Didn’t settle, but it was nice – albeit just for a moment in time. I want to talk about that super show we had on Sunday, when we launched those new Stamp Pens and Jazz’s new KISS Seasonal Wreath Stamps. I don’t know if you watched until the end of the two hours, but towards the end, I reviewed that Landscape Mask technique which was launched last November. Remember the one? With…
Hi there Competition winner time! So many of you guessed the double-sided eraser pencil from Faber-Castell was our biggest selling product! And how close you were. That little life-saver came in second only to our Groovi Tabs!! So the lucky winner of the Clarity Gift Voucher is… drum roll….. SHEILA CRAWFORD! Well done Sheila. I have often chuckled at how many little packs of Groovi tabs we pack and send out. Which just goes to show how popular our Groovi…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Happy Sunday. Dave and I decided to work this morning, “to get ahead of the week ahead” as we say! He was heading for our Clarity Printroom, to die cut 5×5 inch scored white card blanks on the old Heidelberg press. They’re for next Saturday’s new Card-stitch packs. Conversation ran like this… Me? I just had to empty all the demo boxes from last Friday’s TV shows, and make a start on what’s coming…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. It’s nice to be indoors today. It is persisting down outside! Raining the proverbial cats and dogs! And Ragnar is out there in it somewhere! We reckon he’s got a hide out and a little minx on the side. We reckon Ragnar Lodbrok is leading a “double-life” … Erik the Red on the other hand, is curled up asleep in front of the Aga, like any other sensible, self-respecting Viking! Yesterday was busy. TV…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just got in from Day 1 of our Clarity retreat. I think the projects we covered were well received. Most people seemed pretty happy with their day’s work. I’m always rather apprehensive before a workshop, especially when there’s a brand new technique on the menu. But to be honest, whilst it’s true to say you can’t please all the people all the time, the results speak for themselves . And when I took a…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. And thanks for watching me hop about on Create & Craft yesterday. I do love building scenes and cool quotes. Well, here’s a demo I have rustled up to music, which showcases both! Bingo! I also used one of those super new plaid stencils in the background on a Gel Press… Here’s a list of the ingredients, with links to our website…. It’s a seriously serious sale! Anything from 40 to 70% off. But…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. I’ve been prepping for the Summer Retreats today. You know, working out a teaching plan, getting the projects that we are going to be doing ready. There’s a new idea, a cool technique that I’ve been developing, and finally figured out. I’m quietly excited actually! (not that quietly, says Dave!). Haha. I came skipping into the kitchen like I’d won the lottery! I’ve spent hours in my head, figuring out how to do this,…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Enjoying the heat ? Scorchio!! Did you manage to watch the Felt by Clarity Christmas shows at the weekend? I love that Tree design! I did show off a little trick using the outer strips of felt, which gave a really neat pattern. Here’s a step by step… Love this look! Dee did a couple of samples using the same technique. All the Felt Kits and felt packs etc are available HERE TIme to…
