Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Just a quick blog today, to show off a couple of our new Christmassy Heart Dies, which you may have seen on Hochanda a couple of weeks ago. I launched them at the NEC, if I’m not mistaken. We’ve had them as stencils for years, Deer and Heart aperture stencils and they make brilliant dies, too. Deer Heart Aperture Die Dove Heart Aperture Die One of the things we figured out recently was that…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in today. Having a day off, and spending it with my dear friend Anita, so am off the Clarity radar for a day. A pamper day at the Spa Hotel! Wowee! It’s not something I do, if you know what I mean, but the kind team at work gave me a voucher for my birthday, so I’m doin’ it! And Neet loves all that hot pebbles and massage stuff, so I thought I’d treat her…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. After a day of recording German and English Youtubes parallel, I decided it was time to have a little play with stamps and paint and stuff….. you know how it goes. Downtime it’s called. So this is what I came up with. Ready? Hang on to your hollyhocks! It goes a bit woowah towards the end! This scrap copy paper was sitting on the top of the scrap pile.

Hi there. Thanks for popping in! Wednesday’s blog. When we look inside, right? Well, I came home after 3 weeks of galavanting around, full of new resolve to slow down – and what happens? I do a 10 hour day at the office, then drive over to Mum and Dads in rush hour traffic (via the M25 aka OCP Orbital Car Park), hang out with them till midnight – and then drive home again! Sheesh!! However. I enjoyed every minute…

What a wonderful, beautiful place! Honestly! Our Wee houses and Shops Stampsets AND Baby Groovi must have been modelled off Leiden architecture ! Look for yourself !

Hi there! Good of you to join us here in Leiden on our last day. We have walked miles! The sun is warm, the church bells are dingle ringing, the locals are cycle biking along the cobbled lanes, and I really cannot think of a more romantic place. The colours of the hedges and trees are spectacular! (Spot the new gloves. They match the hedge!) Still had a chuckle with the shop signs. This one caught my attention. Oooh,…
Hi there, Greetings from a rather rainy Leiden. Still beautiful nonetheless. Market Day today, so lots of wonderful cheeses which make the roof of your mouth tingle, and warm artisan breads fresh out of the oven. Heaven for the senses. I thought I’d flag up Maria’s TV show on Wednesday this week. She is showcasing a set of brand new and very special stencils which Mel illustrated. They are so beautiful and rich with images – I think you will…
