Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Just thought I’d pop in and let you know what’s coming up tomorrow, before I move on to the next job. Tina and I are meeting at HOCHANDA to have a doodle day – well 2 hours at least. Remember a little while ago, she and I got hooked on looking for art within the designer papers and parchment? Well, she and I put our heads together and decided to do a little doodle…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Just a quickie today, to introduce a really neat little folding trick by Paul. It is very cool, and I LOVE this leafy Swirl Die. There’s a sweet 20% discount on this little die, so do dive in if you like it! The Club envelopes have all gone out, so keep your eyes peeled for the postman! Sorry it’s later than usual – the NEC slowed us down. But…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Busy busy Monday ahead! Oh boy! Is it me? Or is the world spinning off its axis ? I know it’s gone mad, I know we’re living in a mental world, and I appreciate that we’re all doomed. But this breakneck speed is making me dizzy! So let’s just change down a gear, take our foot off the pedal – and make a pretty card. At least while we’re doing that, we can’t break…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. And thank you to all of you who joined in with the Guess-the-Arty-process-Competition. Did anybody get it exactly right? Afraid not. But a couple of you came very, very close… Here’s how: Now there were two of you who almost nailed it, so I would like to send each of you a £25 Gift Voucher each. Split it down the middle. And those two clever ladies are …drumroll….. Ann Hooper and Dawn Rogers. Well…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Just got in from a lovely birthday lunch over at Reads in Faversham. Excellent food. Turning 60 at the NEC was fun, but I really wanted to celebrate with the family – especially my parents! Without them I wouldn’t be here! So when they booked a table at Reads, I didn’t have to be asked twice! Every time I have a birthday, which is always once a year, Mum sings to me and then…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Just got off the phone from lovely Maria. She’s all set to launch our Mini Groovi Starter Kit. “Just a little lippy – and I’m good to go!” she chirped down the phone. She’s well excited about the smaller Starter Kit. Like she says, it’s a really lovely gift size, and at the One Day Special price, it’s also very affordable for somebody wanting to get going with Groovi. We launched the smaller version…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. I have had a play this evening, and I thought perhaps you might enjoy a little challenge…. Below we have two cards, made with that oh so lovely Leafy Swirl aperture die of ours: If I were to tell you that both of these cards were made together, from the same cut, could you figure it out? Could you work out how I made a dark glittery one and a glossy white one from…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Just got an hour to spend with you before I shoot off to POTTERY. Woohoo!! I have missed not one but two weeks now, because of TV and the NEC. So I am über-excited about a few hours playing with clay. Who knew that this would become my passion.. and I know exactly what I still have to do before I can move on to the next project: wax my fat friend’s bottom and…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Oh boy! I have had a day off today. Switched off from Clarityworld and all that mallarkey, and just poodled, tidied and cleaned the house all day. Was completely engrossed in something on the box just now. “Don’t you have to blog today, Darling?” asked Dave. And you’d have thought I’d just had a blast of 40 volts up my derriere!! Sorry xxxx So here’s a delightful little Youtube, starring dear Paul. He is…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. For! I just saw which stamp set is on offer this month! Boy oh boy. If I’s had 50 of these with us at the NEC I could have sold every single one! There was a particular piece of artwork using these stamps one of the artboard which clearly drew people in – and I must say, it was very lovely. But this stamp set has to be one of our very best, don’t…
