Hi there. Thanks for joining me. Ventured out at lunchtime to collect Mark from Gatwick. Traffic’s pretty dense round these parts! But no sooner had I parked and run to Arrivals than he landed, the beautiful boy. He’s very handsome, you know. You can see the girls checking him out! Tall, with a year round tan and tasty! So we had a good old catch up on the way home. Then I left him to unpack and chill, and came…
Hi there! Thanks for joining us. Ho! Ho! Ho! We have had the most splendid Christmas Ding Dong today! What a great turnout at the Spa. It started out so calm and civilised. You will recognise many of the team here – Dee, Tina, Mel, Paul, Rosie to name but a few… This was definitely the more raucous table! See Jayne here? The one next to little Dotty, who’s sitting next to her mum Annie, who designs so many of…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Sitting here in the kitchen with Dave, Linda and Rob Williams. Whilst they listen to a pod cast on why we are all magnesium deficient (wtf ??), I decided to blog and share some very interesting news with you. Magnesium gives you flatulance. Sorry. I really must stop listening, and concentrate on you! Right. Focus, Gray! Starting in January, we are firing up our Youtube Channel again. The first thing we will be doing…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Tuesday’s Blog I can do as I please, right? Well, the postman dropped a card through the door yesterday, telling us we had to go collect an envelope from the post office. So off Dave duly trotted, in search of said envelope, armed with a utility bill and my passport. And what should he find, but these four beautiful cards, which dear Emma made for the last TV show with Tina’s new plates on…
Hi there!Thanks for popping in. Stencils tonight! (not chicken!) One of the things I enjoy about our stencils is that the emboss beautifully when run through a die cutting machine. I do like my E-Bosser. It’s not the latest one, but hey! I only use it as a mangle! Here you can see our snowflake stencil on our ultra glossy Chromo Card. Glossy one side. Matte the other. snowflake set Simply brush Black Archival ink across the raised snowflakes. The…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Just a quickie today, to show off Dave’s latest answer to storage. At Clarity, whenever we want foam, sponges, storage folders, lightwaves or anything else which requires outsourcing, (aka hours of patience, tenacity and the ability to haggle like a farmer), Dave’s the man! So on his behalf, I would like to flag up this delightful top quality, half-pint size travel case – perfect for the Groovi Go ! GROOVI GO! Travel Case What…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. The countdown is on for Christmas, and so today was THE day for cleaning, decorating the house and getting the beds ready for when the family land. The thing about letting the house go for weeks without cleaning is that when you do eventually brace yourself and roll your sleeves up, you get a real sense of achievement, with an undercurrent of “Yikes” You know that old Yellow Pages ad, “…and you don’t want…
Hi there!Thanks for popping in. Firday’s blog a private peek, right? So I wanted to share Wednesday evening with you. We had a marvelous time, Dave, Sheila, Steve and myself. It was a Murder Mystery on the Bluebell Railway. We had to dress up to the nines and be at Sheffied Park Railway Station at 6.30pm prompt. There, we witnessed a murder. It was pretty comical and very entertaining actually. Then we climbed aboard the most beautiful old steam train, …
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. While you’re here, would you be so kind as to tell the driver to slow down? We are hurtling towards Christmas and we haven’t even got a tree up, or cards written. What am I saying? Written? I haven’t made them yet! Ah well. It will all get done, but I do wish there were about 48 hours in each day just now. I said to Dave this afternoon, “What I need is for everything…
Hi there. Thanks for joining me. No I know that Wednesday is usually the day we do some soul searching, but to be frank, I need a creative fix! (Who’s Frank?) Have you made all your Christmas cards yet? Yes? Well, Good For You!! Ask me whether I have. Go on, I dare you …. But rather than get into a spin, I decided to kick back and enjoy the day ahead. One card is better than no cards, so…
