Hi there. Owl are you today? Way toot much going on here, so I’ve escaped to my little den above the garage! Wednesday is when we look at life from a different angle, clear the mind, focus on the now. So let’s do that and learn something together at the same time! Remember a while ago, we looked at the Magnificent Owl in our Colouring Book, and focussed on colouring in his eyes? Well, let’s concentrate on his feathers today……
Hi there! Thanks for popping in on Inky Tuesday. Today is when we take a look at all things inky. As you may know, we were at Ally Pally this weekend. We put together a pack of the new Artistry ink colours which I particularly like, and which to my mind, are a great starting place. It was very interesting. Although all 48 colours were available there, customers preferred to go with the recommended packs. CLICK HERE TO BUY Was…
Hi there. Thanks for joining me on my day off. Not working out that way, I’m afraid. Already 3pm. So much for that. For those of you who didn’t come to Allexandra Palace, you might enjoy seeing what was actually going on…. The stand looked great. The Stamp section carried our newest stamps and what has been trending, plus our new range of Artistry ink pads. Should we have brought more stamps? Would we have sold more stamps? Well, the…
Hi there!Still at Ally Pally today. Love it there. But very happy be home tonight! Prepped this one for you on Thursday, so I could curl up with Dave, curry and Poldaaaark as soon as we got in tonight !! Great to see so many familiar faces and old friends again today. (oi!! Less of the old!) By the way, it’s Jayne Nestorenko’s birthday today, so can we all join together in wishing her a HAPPY BIRTHDAY? xxx As you…
Hi there!Thanks for popping in. We’re at Ally Pally today. And we are streaming a live Clarity TV show from there at 11am. So fingers crossed it works! We had such a blast in April when we streamed out live. It is great working with a live audience! Here’s the demo I am hoping to show you, using Jayne Nestorenko’s fantastic Christmas designs, which complete the Flower Frame Collection. We held them back for just this auspicious occasion. Introducing The…
Hi there! Friday already?!? Where did that week go??? Zipping up to London today, to Ally Pally for the set-up. So just thought I’d chat to you with the first cuppa of the day, at the crack of sparrows. I like this time of day, don’t you? No traffic. The world’s just yawning, stretching and waking up. So who’s the lucky winner of the Rose masterpiece by Dee? Well, it was a completely random choice, and hand on heart, I…
Hi there. Good of you to pop in. Thursday’s blog is always blue, right? Got home after reworking all the artboards with lovely Lisa, and decided I needed a paint fix. Every so often, I just need to switch off and get arty. So here’s a simple step-by-step… So out with my trusted Gelpress Plate and my favourite stencil – Leafy Swirl. Spread a little blue paint on the plate. China and Lake Wanaka. Spread it over the plate with…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. How’s your day going? Mine ? Wurka and Hollick are in town! It’s been rubbish. One thing after another. From the minute I woke up until the dentist an hour ago, which culminated in the front crown coming out in the mould we were having to redo because it hadn’t worked a week ago. We have an expression at Clarity for these occasions: it’s called a Clusterf**k. So there’s only one thing for it:…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just got in from a day with my mate Dee. It was just what the doctor ordered. A morning of crafting together – now THAT’S something we haven’t done for a while! It was so enjoyable, working together, chatting away, catching up. She’s a good egg. And a very astute one, too. It was good to run some stuff by her and get her honest opinion. She’s a straight shooter; says it as it…
