Hiya! Thanks for popping in today. Went to bed last night fully expecting Trump to win. Woke up to the news that he had. There you go. The American people have spoken with their ballots. We shall see how it all plays out…. Whether you agree with the result, or don’t is neither here nor there. It is what it is, and only time will tell. I for one am glad at least that all that ugly, divisive campaigning is…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. The sun is pouring through the windows here. Absolutely glorious. And the colours of the leaves on the trees! I think this is my favourite time of year. How about you? We have a very old ginkgo tree in our back garden. It is the last tree to get its dainty green dress on in the springtime; then at this time of year – almost overnight – its bright green coat turns a light…
Hi there! Thanks for dropping in! Enjoying a day off here. Went to Waitrose this morning. Quite a novel experience actually. It has been an age since I went grocery shopping, so it was rather pleasant just wandering up and down the aisles, picking a bit of this and that and what you fancy. Sorry state of affairs when your work schedule has gone so far off course that a trip to the supermarket is a treat! Anyway, one of…
Hi there. Sitting in the store room at the NEC. Having a break from the noise and bustle. Signal’s appalling here too, And I can’t disappear from the stand for too long! Oh boy will I be glad to get home! Although our stay here has been the best really. Great show, great customers, great Clarity team and the best 5th November ever! I will tell you all about it tomorrow, when I’m back in my own little zone. Am…
Hi there! Greetings from the NEC day 3! Another busy day, Lots of new faces and so many enquiring minds! Either watching intently at my Gelprint stencil inky end…. Getting in the groove with Jo at the make n takes at the other end…. Or a little parchment lesson from our Paul… All in all a very good day. Wearing down now though, Although we just had a dream of an evening. I shall tell you all about it tomorrow,…
Hiya! Greetings from the NEC! Another super busy day, filled with arty crafters, familiar faces and much fun. It was almost time to call it a day, when these two lovely Welsh ladies, Anne and Jan with a plan, came by and rounded off the day nicely with a giggle and a banter. The signal here is no good, so I will have to keep it short and sweet again. Here’s a little demo I did at some point today,…
Hi there! Sorry, but the signal here is dire. So this blog is going to be short n sweet. After a long day 1 at the NEC, I really am struggling to stay awake! It was fun though, and great to see so many familair faces. Very quiet I must say. Although we were kept hopping on the Clarity Stand, the hall was much reduced in size and very uncrowded compared to usual. So how about a super simple,…
Hi there! Well here we are at the NEC. Boxes agogo.. Certainly the longest stand we’ve ever had!! It’s crazy!!! Mostly because we are running FREE Groovi Make & Takes at one end, so be sure to come and sign up. 30 minutes and you will leave with something nice…. Maria will see to that! I shall be up the other end pedalling away. Yep. I shall be at the stampy inky end. The girl has Lace too! 8 hours…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Thought I would share a little moment of Clarity with you today… Many of you will have watched the TV shows this weekend. Did you see the One Day Special, where we launched that amazing compendium of Groovi Plates designed by Linda Williams? The Build-a-wreath Collection (also available individually) If so, you will have also seen me change the traditional white Groovi lines to black…. And so so simply too. Basically, all I did…
