Get yer coat on and get grateful!

Get yer coat on and get grateful!

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Take your boots off in the porsche before you come into the kitchen. Toasty in here, but brrrr…..! Very cold isn’t it ?! We came in to the office early this morning, and were driving through Edenbridge… There was a young Mum stood at the crossing with her little kids. The nippers had hats and gloves and winter coats and boots on. She had a jumper and little shoes.  “Blimey!” said Dave, “That woman hasn’t…

Have a Groovi Day! Not 20 but 25 WINNERS…

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. I do hope you are warm and dry? The roads aren’t bad round here today, but it is very cold! Farmer Dave says he reckons it will warm up at the weekend. I do hope so. There’s a lot riding on the weather this weekend. Like 7 hours of LIVE TV show in Peterborough, and 100 people coming to Tunbridge Wells for the Retreat!! But I am not going to panic yet.  We will…

Snow stops play? NOT!!!!

Snow stops play? NOT!!!!

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Snow stopped play today at Clarity? Not at all! The ladies in the office drove in slowly, Dave and I picked up Simon and Becca, a few others waited until the roads were a little less icy and then came in, and the boys from Crowborough caught the train in. There you go. Teamwork makes the dream work. The Beast from the East indeed! The press and media do like to hype it up,…

Snip at the Tip! OUCH! You Tube Tuesday

Hi there. Thanks for popping in! YouTube Tuesday today! This week Rosie and I have tackled picot cutting. All you need is a good clean pair of glasses, a steady hand and your weapon of choice! Hope you enjoyed that one and that it was helpful. The one thing you DO need is the right scissors. AT Pergamano (that’s us!) we sell 3 types: The Exclusive ones (the ones I used) The Pergacutter (the tweezer type Rosie used) The Ringlocks…

Spot the Stag Step by Step….

Hi there. Thanks for popping. Looking a bit bleak outside. Ominous. Or is it all the hype about a freak Russian snowstorm coming our way? Ah well. Not much we can do, except wrap up warm and craft!  Anyway, how about some scrapart?  We all like a bit of scrap art! Now here’s one I hung on to when I was cleaning paint off my brayer the other day. Can you see what I see?  #skidmarksfrombrayer Humour me, humour me….

Sunday’s Groovi step by step – Easy as 1,2,3

Hi there. Thanks for joining me on this rainy-in-England Sunday. Burst pipes in our area at home, because the freeze thawed so fast, so no water at the house – but Dave can handle it!  Busy busy busy here at Clarity! I shall be on TV from 2-4pm today, with some fab new stencils and Gelpress plates, doing my arty thaing.  Then I shall pass the baton to Maria, who will launch a  Groovi Parchment One Day Special at 6pm. These…

Tidy room – tidy mind.

Tidy room – tidy mind.

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. What a great morning! I have been having a reshuffle up here in my little art studio. I’ve sorted out that window space for Groovi and Parchment,  which I am loving. And this morning, I decided to file some of my Designer papers and card into our new 8” x 8”storage folders.  Only had two folders here, but it’s a start. I’ll have to get a couple more from the Clarity warehouse. I found…

A Groovi New Plan….

Hi there. Happy Friday to you! Blimey! You weren’t kidding when you said you wanted an indexing system for your Groovi Plates! Talk about order online! Those young people who think we more mature women don’t know how to navigate their way around a website are sooooooooo wrong !!!!  Same goes for the Half-Price Member’s Sale which has been going on all month until the end of February. Our phones went down most of this week because of flooding somewhere…
