Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Just watching Deb Wheeler on Create & Craft. Great to see her informative demos, and fun to see her with our mate Dean! I decided to look back at a NEW YORK blog or 2, to remember the BIG APPLE, and its draw. It certainly is like a magnet for many, including myself. And certainly our Grace. She’s home here in England at the moment, but she do love the New New Amsterdam. Has…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Yes, tomorrow, in just 120 minutes, our lovely Deborah Wheeler will take you on a whistle stop tour of London, Paris and New York. In fact, if we get our skates on, she may even be able to take a little break in India at the Taj Mahal AND Pisa, Italy, too! Just depends on the traffic and the clock at Create and Craft. What time exactly are we expecting departure? At 1pm and…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. We’re all of a doodle here at Clarity! Why? Because Paul is just about to leave for the Create & Craft TV Studios, with his car loaded full of fabulousness – our brand new Round Doodle Dies. FINALLY! These are a game changer! I was so impressed by all the artwork that the Design Team came up with! Whether you‘re a paper crafter, a parcher or a mixed media artist, you’ll love these! Paul…
Hi. Thanks for popping in. If you watched Create & Craft last Sunday, you’ll have seen me use not one, but TWO large Gelpress plates! This was to move through a monoprinting printing process quickly. If you use two plates, you can bounce between colours, transferring colours back and forth as you pull prints, getting loads of blends and lovely ghost prints. If you’re only working with one plate, you have to keep cleaning it, and the colours muddy, and…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Paul will be on Create & Craft at 11am this morning. He is showcasing the most exquisite Jayne Nestorenko Floral Sampler Plate! You will love it. The original, larger designs are among the best selling Groovi plates; we can never keep them in stock! I love the stamp version too. Just beautiful. Here is the Original Groovi Collection, complete with book. Now check out this fabulous sampler, that Jazz has composed for us… A4…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Bit of a marathon this weekend, but oh so happy that the new Felt by Clarity has been so well received! I KNEW you’d love it! The day I saw that wall hanging in Portland Maine, I fell in love with felt. I’d never really given it that much thought until then; now I touch it, feel it, play with it most days. There’s so much scope, it’s insane., And my guess is, the…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. You may have been in the SHAC yesterday evening, when I showed off the first three of our brand new FELT by Clarity Kits, which are being launched tomorrow evening on Create & Craft at 6pm. There are nine altogether in this year’s Funky Kits Collection. I’m in love with them. It’s something so different! Introducing The Funky Circle… …The Funky Flower #1… …and The Funky Leaf #1… What’s in each kit? Additional felt…
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…
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…
