Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Day 3. Tick. Just had a lovely day with a lovely group, and now it’s time for supper. Here we are, following Dirty Dave. We don’t actually know him. It’s not my Dave, but Rosie decided we ought to investigate. What’s she like?! On the subject of Dirty, here’s a mop up off the brown craft mat from yesterday. Mel suggested it, so I rolled a load of Viva Decor paint over the craft mat…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. It’s way too late to blog anything substantial really. I left the artwork i wanted to show you at the Community Centre, so I shall have to share it with you tomorrow. Just got in from supper at the Spa with a few of the crew, and now, to be frank, I’m fit to drop. Today was excellent – well, for me it was! The projects went down well, and it was so good…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Just got in from the first day of the retreats, and can’t stop long – we’re meeting for supper at the Spa Hotel. I think it went down well. I think the projects were well received. I think the guests all had a good time. Tell you what thought; it was more like Friends Reunited than a Craft Workshop! Nearly every single person who came through the door was a buddy, everybody had been…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Spent most of the day getting the room ready for Day 1 of the Clarity Retreats. This will be our home now for 8 days, back to back. Good size screen?! Linda, Gail and Jilly turned up early to pitch in, and then a few other guests came at the last minute, just checking the location. I’ve got a drill, and I’m not afraid to use it! So let the games begin. I do…
Hi there!Thanks for popping in. Apologies for the late show today; went to a very special lady’s very special birthday party today, and only just got in. Thanks Sheila! And congratulations! xxx Lately, we’ve been talking about firing up the Clarity YouTube Channel again. Did you know we have a substantial reference library of projects, ideas and inspiration? Thing is, when Groovi came along, we got SOSOSOSOSOSO busy, that Jim and I had to knock You Tube Tuesday on the…

We received the Silver Finalist in every one above, except the Colouring Book, which we won! It was lovely to receive the recognition. Thank you!…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Had a great day in London. Really excellent business meeting. More will be revealed…. In the meantime, I was playing with that Inca Gold Wax Paste yesterday, which both Maria and Rosie swear by. I decided to figure out how to use it myself. Well it IS very good, and I DO highly recommend it! Take a super duper Clarity Stencil designed by Mel, House Stencil INCLUDED IN THE MEMBER’S HALF PRICE SALE…. and drag…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Been spinning like a top here today. Not helped by constant interruption. You know when you really need to concentrate on something? When something really requires your undivided attention? But the phone rings, the email pings, the doorbell dinglings, and it takes forever to get back to where you were on your train of thought. I am sure there are plenty of you who know exactly what I mean. Your focus is broken, and it takes…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Just got home after THE BEST DAY! You know those ones where everything just feels right, goes right and is right? It’s like you go to push a door and it opens before you even touch it. Effortlessly. Almost as if there are hands unseen delving into our lives. So tomorrow our Maria is on TV with a rather splendid set of Groovi Plates: The Twas the Night Collection. And the Universal framer is just…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Can’t stop long. Got to finish up the Groovi Parchment project for the retreat next week. Snip snip snip… I have been going backwards and forwards on it. Brand new plate. Brand new paper. It’ll be easy for some, trickier for others. Mind you. If I can do it, then it can’t be THAT hard! The happy news is that we have plenty of pretty advanced parchers mingled in next week’s groups – so…
