Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Just got back from a smashing day with Mum and Dad, helping them decorate their home for Christmas. Quick trip to the garden centre and then back indoors to deck the halls! A quick pic demo today, showcasing those magnificent Mixed Impressions stamps I launched last Friday. What a game changer they are! I didn’t get to this one on TV. 1.First thing is to place the outside round mask from our SIMPLE SHAPES…
Hi there, Good of you to pop in. Always nice to know somebody’s out there! Earlier today. Lost my way with the early morning blog routine there for a bit. Back on track now. Got a lot on my plate… Here’s a little step by step, using one of the new 2-way bauble stamps I drew. These are proving to be very popular indeed, so the more ideas, the better, eh! Let’s begin. Load the negative image, the second stamp…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. I was driving home this afternoon, the sun was shining down on the fields and meadows – and I was suddenly overwhelmed by the sheer beauty of it all. There is a stretch along the country road where the trees on either side reach up over us and join hands, creating the most spectacular tree tunnel along the way. Stretches for a good mile or so, and the colours today – with the sun…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. A week ago today we were at the NEC in Birmingham, pedalling like crazy. Seems like months ago! Was it really only last weekend? I must check….yep. I was on Bauble Duty, demonstrating the new 2-way overlay baubles, which have proved so popular. Maybe the price offer is irrestible. Maybe you like the illustrations. Maybe both! There’s a 3 for 2 offer on the website, which I will leave there for another week, I…

Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Did you watch the rugby this morning? What a game! You had to see the English team come out of the starting blocks. It was unbelievable. They were 7 points up on New Zealand 90 seconds in! I was jumping round the living room like a nutter! Did my throat in screaming at the telly, too! What a work out! Made all the sweeter by the fact that our Mark was in the stadium…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. What a downpour! Puddles like lakes down here in Kent! So it’s nice to be back in the warm and dry. Maria is on TV, showing off those wonderful Shoes Stamp by Cherry Green, which are now also available as Groovi Plates. You ask – we respond! Here is a step-by-step I did a while back, using the boot stamp, which is my personal favourite. The background is from our Shenandoah Designer Card. Love…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Been looking ahead to this time next week. The 2-4 show on TV. So much to show you! So much to try out before then! But so much other stuff to do too! Let me show you just one of the new stampsets today. A typical Barbie Step by step, using a pair of stamps I drew these myself. That’ll do for a Sunday afternoon! These are sooo versatile! This one is called Peace…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Happy Birthday to our Mum. Getting younger by the year! We’ve had a very pleasant couple of days, mooching and chatting. And this evening we’re going on a special excursion. Big surprise. The parents don’t know where we’re going. They just know smart dress required! More will be revealed…. As for Clarity – it’s the last day of the Sale of the Season today. So until midnight today, you can still dip in online,…
