TODAY’S SPECIAL BLOG OFFER : COLOUR BURST SOLD OUT sorry, all gone. Hi there. Thanks for popping in today. Jim here has been up half the night, doing battle with the new website. Poor bloke. It’s an IT quagmire, and there’s a little monkey having fun, flicking switches when his back’s turned. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px ‘Minion Pro’} But if anybody can crack the code, it’s our Jim! In the meantime, while Jim tracks down the…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Was dark when I got into work. Is dark outside again now. Mmm…. But inside the sun has been shining all day! We really have had a great day, making plans, having meetings and just generally getting our ducks in a row for GRAY FRIDAY! Remember last year, when our website crashed so spectacularly? What a nightmare that was!! The only comfort was that cyberspace took down the big boys too! We were quite…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Thought I would show you how to make your own protest banner today – well at least how I made mine yesterday. Start out with a red stain on a sheet of coated Clarity card. This is done by smearing the red Cranberry Crush ink pad on a blending mat, spritzing it with water, then laying the card into the wet mess. Lift and allow to dry. Make a couple, so you can make more than…
Hi there. Thanks for stopping by. I’ve been angry today. Went to bed in tears after watching Children in Need last night. Woke up to the news that a children’s hospital in Aleppo has been bombed. For the love of God! What is wrong with humanity? I know this is a craft blog. My Dad taught me many years ago never to discuss sex, religion or politics in public. So mostly, I don’t. But as you and I know, just…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. How has your day been? You know I always say that we have good days and growing days? Well, mine has definitely been a growing day today !! It’s that age old problem of having to be creative to order, when nothing works, nothing comes together, what you are using doesn’t speak to you, and everything you produce is c r a p. And anybody who insists that there’s no such thing as c…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Very windy here darn sarf! Paul and I have been holed up above the garage in the studio doing art prep, and it has been blowing a gale outside! I quite like it though, when it’s raw outside and you’re indoors. Not so nice if you’re a postman, or homeless…. Anyway, here’s a step-by-step I did a while back on TV, using the Christmas Shape Stamps designed by our Jim. (also available individually) Jim created these…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Wednesday’s blog is when we look at things through another lens, and today I thought we could take a look at what people do with their lives. I mean, I know what I do with my time personally, and you probably know what you do with yours too! But when you step away from the plate, take your foot off the accelerator for a moment and just think about the hundreds and hundreds of thousands…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Had a hankering to get my Gel Plate out and play with some paint. The little Petites are great, but sometimes you just need a bigger one! So out with the 6″ x 6″ Wasn’t sure where to begin, but I do like our Wee Houses Stamps. and our Wee Shops So let’s use them! Especially because they come with masks, and we need masks for this trick! Stamp out a row of houses…
