Hi there, Thanks for joining me! I have been up above the garage all day, making papers for 2 more Northern Lights type books…. Now these ones here are not for next week, you understand! No no no. Those ones (which I was teasing about yesterday), are already back from the printers, and waiting for launch when Rosie and I take them on Hochanda’s Birthday bash on Saturday 26th ! Very excited to be bringing them to you – I…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Had a little play today, with one of the Northern Lights papers and a new stamp set which I am in love with: You Hung the Moon. Mmm…. I see a landscape coming on…. Perch the ladder on a cliff top. Erase a little blackness from the moon with a pencil eraser and add a little whiteness with one of our Pergamano white pencils. Lifetime supply in a box of 12 for £18 Use…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Friday’s blog a private peek, right? Well I want to take you back to my teenage years. I was having a really good chat with lovely Lisa at work today, and this just came up, because we were talking about wallpaper of all things! Remember when we were teenagers, we used to get a magazine every month which had a life size pullout pin-up of some super star or other. I even remember the…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Busy but enjoyable day here. Rosie has been down here for a couple of days, and we have been drinking lots of tea and making loads of plans! We are certainly making progress in many different areas. One of the things that happens every time there is a TV show is we send out an email to all those customers of ours who have signed up to receive our emails. Now what you may…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Wednesday’s blog is where we talk about matters of the head and heart, don’t we? Well, we had best leave my head out of it today, because it’s wild in there! Not a place you want to enter alone, that’s for sure! Not without a hardhat! Don’t ask. This too shall pass. There’s no point in keep talking about what is getting under your skin, to be honest. You just keep rehashing it and…
Hi there, Having a day off today, to unpack and regroup after a very hectic and busy run up to the TV shows. They are strenuous, you know. Not complaining though; gratitude abounds. I just know now to slow down, take my foot off the pedal periodically, and chillax. So here’s a quickie step by step demo which I did in hour 1 of the One Day Special, using the Snow Globe – one of the new outline stamps. Stamp the…
Hi there. Thank you so much for popping in, and thank you for joining Tina, Paul and myself on HOCHANDA this weekend!We had a great time! Happy to report that the new Pergamano tools sold out despite the fact that we loaded double the initial stock, and the lovely Christmas outline stamps sold out in hour 3 too. Happy days. Busy busy busy. At 9am I started a Groovi project on black parchment, using the nested Christmas poetry plates, which…
Hi there. Thank you so much for popping in, and for watching us on HOCHANDA TV if you did. You know, you can always watch LIVE on their website on HOCHANDA.COM You don’t even need a television! Just the internet and a PC or a phone or an Ipad. All clever stuff, innit… So here’s the Globe art I did at 6. How about a quick photo step by step recap? Paul is showing off the candles and the Groovi Nested…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Just ticking all the boxes here, and packing loads more. Oh boy! Have we got a great line up lined up for you this weekend on HOCHANDA! The main event on the afternoon show with Tina and myself will be the launch of 3 brand new Pergamano tools. We have named them the Picot V Trio! Designed by Linda Williams They are a very simple concept, but really really just what I wanted! You…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Our dear old pear tree fell down in the storm the other night. Keeled over, and finally gave up trying to stay standing. Fortunately it fell away from the house, in the opposite direction. Gutted. It may only be an ancient old pear tree, and to be honest, the pears weren’t even very nice, but it was also home to most of the menagerie in our garden! All the birds are homeless now! Can…
