Hi there. Thanks for dropping in. Sorry I’m so late! Just got home. After a second very special Open Day at Crowborough, by the time we had broken down the hall and gone for a bite to eat, it was 10 o’clock! I am sure that Sam, Mandy, Jo, Maria, Tina Linda Paul, And Dee, (missing photo!) not to mention the rest of the crew, all join me in thanking everbody who came along and who helped make it a…

Hello! Thanks for dropping in! Typing extra fast here, so forgive the spelling! All the ladies have gone to freshen up at the hotel, and then we are meeting at the restaurant for supper. So they’ll enter all cool and refreshed, and I’ll be knackered and schvetty! Good day though. Long too. Setting up for the Open Days is a mammoth task. Many many things to remember, It all starts with a few good friends and a blank canvas…. Aha!…
Hi there. Mindful Wednesday. I hope today finds you safe and well. It’s a mad, mad, mad, mad world for sure. In these crazy times, a safe place is beginning to feature more than ever. What on earth is going on ??? The radio is barking apocalytic threats if we vote the wrong way in Europe; French police are being murdered, innocent young people are being massacred in America. Whole countries being raised to the ground by warmongers. Is it…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Here we are, getting all revved up for the Clarity Open Days here in Crowborough on Friday and Saturday, And it’s no good. There is something brand new we’ve been holding back for the coming weekend. It can’t wait. Have to show you now. I have been moaning about having to cellotape our Groovi Borders to the Groovi Plate Mate since Day 1. Well no. Day 2 actually, when I had to pick all…
Hi there. Good of you to pop in. Quiet day here. That’s it, isn’t it. Life goes on. So on we go then. But something has to change! If we always do what we always did, we’ll always get what we always got. Monday’s tree is flowers and trees, right? So here’s a simple little step-by step, using a few Gel Plate scraps I had lying around. Pick the one to use… Stamp the lovely Butterfly Tree silhouette stamp in…
Hi there. Thanks for dropping in. Like so many of you, I woke up to the shocking news that there had been an attack on a nightclub in Orlando. During the day, horrendous details started rolling in; the number of victims climbed and climbed and climbed. Until we reach a verdict: 50 dead. 53 injured. I am so so sorry for the poor people, families and friends whose lives have just been destroyed. My heart goes out to ALL those…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Have you had a good week? We hit the ground running here, but it has been a super productive back to work for sure. Saturday’s blog a new technique, isn’t it? NAILED IT TODAY FOR SURE !! I have to write up the New Design Club today. Got caught up in the colouring book final stage yesterday, and that’s how the cookie crumbles. Other important things get shunted, moved to the next day. Guess…
Hi there! Good of you to pop in. Friday’s blog a private peek, so I want to share something really really phenomenal with you, which we just happened upon in Hawaii. This Banyan Tree Which one? I hear you ask. Well, actually this IS one tree. Let me take you back a few years, to the tree at an earlier point in its life…. See the tendrils hanging from the branches? Well, they are what is called aerial roots, and…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. We are having a good day at Clarity today, finally finalising the pages of our first colouring book. It all takes much longer than you think – especially when you are swanning around in Hawaii ! The book features our best and loveliest bird images, including our superb Toucans, illustrated by Mel. We have taken the birds and placed them in a wonderful tropical setting, all set to colour in. Here are a few…
