Sunday – and a little Therapy.

Sunday – and a little Therapy.

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Was tidying away all the prep boxes from Friday’s TV show earlier, and came across the Dandelion card I had cut out, that was on offer in the Super Saver. CLICK HERE I LOVE this design. Many of you may already have it because it was a previous Fresh Cut Die Club Die. A really, really superb one, illustrated by our friend Mel Turner. Anyway, I went off at a tangent, and decided to…

A Half & Half Card…

A Half & Half Card…

Hi there Thanks for popping in. Decided to make a card, using one of our best Fresh Cut dies – The Floral Flourish. It’s a large die, but a super delicate design. There’s another one, the Floral Forest, which is also fabulous. Here’s a step by step, which I’ve decided to name a Half & Half card. You’ll soon see why… This is a 7” x 7” Kraft cardblank. Cut a piece of Companion paper 6.5” square, and attach it…

A Walk – and last orders, ladies and gentlemen!

Hi there Thanks for popping in today. After a hectic but fruitful day on telly yesterday, I decided to kick back today, take it easy. I just don’t ping back like I used to! And I am learning that it’s ok to do nothing. So I made breakfast and did a couple of loads of laundry. Yep. That’s me doing nothing! Just not possible to sit still! The sun was shining for the first time in a while, so Dave…

It’s ok to change your mind.

It’s ok to change your mind.

Hi there Thanks for popping in. Yesterday I made a plan in my head to do pottery today. All day. This morning I spent an hour deciding what I actually want to make. Tiles, bowls, another element of Dad’s totem pole, a wall hanging for the kitchen – so many ideas! Got dressed up warm, all set to weather the elements outside and in the not so toasty garage. Cleaned both bathrooms while I was whizzing around upstairs, aired the…

C for CLARITY. Or is it See for Clarity?

C for CLARITY. Or is it See for Clarity?

Hi there, Thanks for popping in. At Clarity we have been designing alphabet stamps and Groovi plates for as long as I’ve been in business! I think, whilst I am emotionally attached to the Nursery Rhyme Alphabet, because it was the first, and because it reminds me of my kids, and because it hails back to sunnier times when we lived in Northern California, my favourite is actually our Phonic Floral Alphabet, which I drew a few years ago.

Winds of Change

Hi there Thanks for popping in. How’s the New Year shaping up in your neck of the woods? It’s been raining and blowing a hoolie here for days. Wain, wain, wain. I’ve been in my artroom, (or should I say artwomb?) prepping for Sunday’s TV show, and quite enjoying my own company. I got caught up in a Gelpress session, which was thoroughly enjoyable. You know how it goes. You’re supposed to be making the bed, you go to hang…
