Hiya! Greetings from the BIG APPLE! It’s great to be back. Talk about the city that never sleeps! We had a monkey of a time getting through JFK customs and passport control last night. Two and a half hours in a very hot, crowded, tunnel-like corridor. No info, no help for the elderly, nothing. And all over the walls there were posters saying WELCOME! BIEN VENIDA! WILLKOMMEN! Bloody useless springs to mind. Then we got accosted by a sleezy looking character…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Waiting for Paul and Dave to arrive, so we can go to the airport. NEW YORK HERE WE COME!!!! So rather than pace the kitchen or start cleaning, I thought I’d chat to you for a while and even get a blue blog out of the weekend’s archives! The Gel Petites launch went so well! I am really chuffed that it hit a chord with so many of you. Seriously, such a simple product!…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Beautiful sunny day here in the south of England. The leafy lanes of Kent and Sussex are a wondrous thing at this time of year. Mind you! That pretty much goes for the whole of Britain when the sun’s out! Wednesday’s blog, so it’s time to reflect on what’s what, and get mindful. Just coming down from a marathon TV weekend. Seven hours of live TV is no mean feat, I can tell you!…
Hello there. Thanks for popping in. You like a little challenge, don’t you? Well, let’s see whether you can figure out how I made the card below, with the tree…. Not that easy, eh. If you watched the Petites Gel printing shows on Hochanda yesterday, you should be able to decipher it how the green landed in the sky. If you didn’t but you wish you had, then go to HOCHANDA, click on Catch Up, click yesterday. 9am. 12 noon. 4pm…
Hi there, Thanks for joining me in the Green Room, just for five minutes before I trundle home. Did you enjoy the TV shows if you watched? I had a blast. Struggling to get the internet here, So am going to call on my buddy Paul, Just to post this. What I wanted to say was that Hayley really hit the nail on the head when she suggested using lace with the new Petite printing plates. What a sublime…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in! Just got to the hotel after a very full on day. Went very well, and I am looking forward to tomorrow. But I haven’t eaten yet, and it’s already gone 10. Then to add to my chaos, I had a right blast of blood to the head, when both BOTH Bank cards got rejected at the hotel reception. Talk about head goes straight to the disaster zone!!! But it’s fine. After a lovely chat…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Whilst Dave, Paul, Maria, Heather and Len pedal away in Port Sunlight today, I am here with Romeo, eating chocolates and watching the box. And if you believe that, you know me little. I’ve been TV prepping for what seems like foreeeeeever, have got just about every pot, pan and spoon out of the cupboard, and I STILL haven’t got anything for the last hour! Mind you, I reckon by then I shall be…

Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Thursday’s blog is always blue, so how about a very simple step by step today, using the lovely stained Glass Groovi plates which Paul showcased on telly last Sunday? Madonna Trace the mother and child out first, then make a box frame, using the Nested Square plate. Blue parchment? No. Clear parchment. Colour in the panels from behind using Distress Markers. Look below. See how you can inject blueness by simply laying a sheet of blue parchment…
