Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just realised that there is a particularly lovely set of Clarity Christmas Stamps (and in Groovi too) which haven’t been out at all this year. That’s what happens when you have such a vast selection; there just aren’t enough opportunities to show everything off! I love these aperture stamps. 2017 or even earlier… Here’s a little how to I have dug out, to show you how they work. Cor! Here’s the leafy canvas too….
Hi there Thanks for popping in. When was the last time you bought a new outfit for going out? Been a while if you’re like me! Apart from TV shows and the SHACK Shac, nobody sees me! And even then, I could be wearing pyjama bottoms – you only ever see the top half! That said, I am glad and grateful to have those reasons for getting my make up on and making an effort most days. I honestly don’t…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just a quick demo on scrap showing how to use those fabulous Woodland masks which we were showcasing on HOCHANDA this morning. Hours of playtime…I just worked on a piece of painty scrap here. It’s that simple, no words required! Just follow the pictures! There you go. Ab Fab these are! I copied and pasted this from the 2018 Calendar! My oh my. How times have changed since then. CLICK HERE TO TREAT OURSELF!…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Up bright and early, and heading off to Mum and Dad’s for the day. But before I shoot the crow…. Our Gray Sale has gone mad again. I’m always very grateful to you when you turn up to shop during this sale – but this year even more so. I’m sure you understand. Many of you have taken advantage of our GRAY WEEKEND SALE by now, I know. And many of you have been…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just a quick little stamping on parchment step by step, using Tina’s lovely new Robin stamps. CLICK HERE Tricks n tips, right? I think it’s always a smart move to stamp up your composition on copy paper before you stamp onto the parchment. So mount up your stamps and work out a layout first. You see, you can see through the parchment, so this copy-paper version becomes your template, or pattern as it were,…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Dark and gloomy day outside, so here’s a simple little flower greeting for you, to brighten up your day. Tuesday’s blog rolls back the hours, right? Well, this fab bouquet was drawn by our dear Tina some time ago, and fast became one of our most popular Clarity designs. In fact, a whole series of this style but different popped up. Look! and there’s a Chinese Lantern to add too! I drew this one!…
Hi there! Thanks for poppeting in. Oh boy! You liked Tina’s Mandalas then! Good grief! Paul is back on at 12 and 4 today. We’ve added more stock, both for the Groovi plates AND the stamps! Hope it lasts. In the meantime, continuing on with our Pergamano celebrations, I was chatting away to lovely Tina yesterday evening, in between sellout shows! She was über chuffed that her designs are so popular. It’s a huge endorsement, to have a big and…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Sunday’s blog a Step by step project, right? Well, today marks the beginning of a special week at Clarity, and so I asked a very special lady to help me with a very special project for you! Josie has rustled up a BEAUTIFUL project for you, using none other than the first of the Groovi Twas The Night Collection which were half price on TV yesterday. Make a cuppa, get comfy and enjoy this…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. And thank you so much for tuning in to HOCHANDA today, and flying the Clarity flag ! Sooo busy! I guess the Half -Price offer was too good to pass up? I know I needed a new set of the first five, because I’ve been using the same set since their inception, and they were looking a little bit “well loved”. Still worked fine, but were looking their age! Aren’t we all!! ANyway, once…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. This morning, upon opening the curtains at 6am I spotted Venus shining brightly just below a fabulous crescent moon. Quite a spectacle. And then we saw mars too! Within minutes all were hidden behind clouds, but just for a short while Dave and I stood gazing out into the universe… So I thought for today’s blogs I would reach back into the past, and dig out one of my all time favourite pieces of…
