Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Wednesdays are mindful blogs, right? Mmm…. Last Christmas, my dear friend Heather (aka the Clarity chick with the Kneepads at the shows) gave me a gift which I have been enjoying every day. Thanks Heather! It is a Daily Meditations and Reflections Calendar. Wonder why she thought this would make a good gift for me…. On the subject of mindfulness though, it has been a Godsend. As soon as I focus on the message…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Raining here. Raining there too? The paint was out on the desk, so I thought I’d have a session. Let off some pressure build-up. I won’t go into the detail – not my story to tell. Suffice it to say that if you want to upset the mother, upset the child. So here’s a simple step by step, using a brayer in a very novel way. Spread a little black paint on the craft…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Pleased to report it’s been a very productive day. Thought I’d spend a Groovi hour to round it off, too. Since the best of the best of the best Sir! have joined the Groovi revolution, (ie Tina Cox, Linda Williams, Pat Murphy and Josie Davidson), the whole Groovi gig has gone to a whole other level! Which is all very, very exciting, but I do feel I have got a little left behind skill-wise….
Greetings from Hampton Court Palace Flower Show! Thanks for joining us! Did we have a mother-daughter blast? Was it beautiful ? Did the weather smile on us? Yes, yes and thrice I say yes! Did I wear the wrong footwear? mmmmm….. All the way there, it rained. So we optimistically said that it was going to be an experience whatever the weather. Secretly I was thinking if I hadn’t spent all that money on pre-booking the tickets, we could have…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Just thought I’d pop upstairs for half an hour and try something out before supper. Saturday’s blog a new technique? Well I know for sure it’s not new, because I just watched a Tim Holtz You Tube doing something like it and thought, “mmmm…that looks interesting… wonder if I can use what I’ve got in my cupboard and get something similar….” So many thanks Tim for the idea. Not that you would ever read…
Hello lovely crafting buddies! Thank you for popping in!Maybe you can tell I is in high spirits? Well we have had such a good day in the garage – you wouldn’t believe it!!! Who? Well, there was Gracie, on cleaning mega mounts… “What?!?!?” I hear you exclaim, “You set her to work???” Oh yes! Retreats are a-looming! I had to start sorting out the mess that we left in the Garage a year ago, after the retreats! Can you believe…

Morning all! Or should I say Yawning all?!? If I yawn any wider, I swear my jaw will dislodge! There’s nothing for it. Double dose of Berocca here we come! That should do the trick. So Thursday’s Blog is always Blue right? Is this blue enough? Groovi Twas the Night! I think I have just remembered so tired! Paul and I had a knock out 7 hour TV bonanza on telly! This is one of the sample from Monday, using…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Wednesday’s blog is our mindful day, isn’t it. Well, I have some excellent news for you… Finally, and after much effort, our Clarity Colouring Book has gone to the printers, and will be launched on HOCHANDA on Sunday August 7th. Are we excited? Relieved more like!! You have NO IDEA how much work and effort goes into a well considered colouring book! In fact, it has taken so long, I think we’re about to…
Hi there! Good of you to drop in. I have spent the day finishing up the New Design Club write-ups. It all take sooo long!! But there we are. That’s how it is. If you want it perfect, you have to put in the effort. On the subject of Clarity Clubs, it’s that time of year again: The Summer Half Price Member’s Sale. CLICK HERE I would say that most people reading this blog are members of ours. Certainly judging…
