Hello there, Thanks for popping in on Mindful Wednesday. Today’s where we look at matters of the heart & soul. It’s been a hectic few weeks here, I can tell you! Hectic but good. The Clarity team has rallied, and even though we aren’t filling orders as quickly as some would like, we are going like the clappers – Dave and myself included. This morning at the crack of sparrows, Dave and I were having a cuppa before darting off to…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. For those of you who like to be reminded of what’s what, thought I’d blog another of the demos from the HOCHANDA TV Show last Sunday. It was a little rushed at the end of the show, so I would rather take it from the top slowly…. Here is a super new Thank You framer Stampset. All mounted, fired up, and ready to play. There is actually a Thank You mask included in the…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Today has been a long one. Picking, picking, picking, picking, picking. Picking what? PICKING ORDERS!!!! The Clarity Elves, having worked Sunday too, were there at 7 am, as was I, and left at 7pm, as did I. You can’t really expect your team to do it if you’re not up to it, can you. And actually, I really enjoyed just tucking in behind the counter and picking orders, like the good old days, when…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in! Just a quickie today, showing you a step by step of one of today’s TV demos. Sometimes I worry that you may think that I am neglecting stamping, because of all the Grooviness going on! To be honest, sometimes I worry the same thing! It isn’t going to happen though. Stamps are my passion. Always have been. Always will be. It’s just when you are launching a brand new concept and product, it gobbles…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in! Everything is set for the HOCHANDA TV Show 2-4pm Sunday. Looking forward to it! Friday’s blog a private peek. It’s all a bit manic here to be honest, so I am going to switch off from work if you don’t mind, and tell you about something completely different. Our Piano. Have I ever told you that we have an old piano? It’s a beaut. I bought it at an auction in San Francisco, when…
Hello there! Thanks for popping in. Thursday’s Blog is something blue? Not this week. I decided to finish that mother and child parchment this evening, and for some reason thought that warm reds and yellows would be better. Also, I have been prepping the demos for Sunday’s TV show, and blue has been the preferred couleur all day! Nice though…. So here’s a very simple colouring exercise, using the Distress Markers. Mother & Child Plate Square Nest Plate Line Sentiment…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Can you believe that Christmas is around the corner ?? Have you bought all your pressies? Have you written all your cards? Ask me. Go on, I dare you! Let’s talk about today, it being Mindful Wednesday. Today’s the blog day we look at matters of the heart and soul, and not so much at HOW we make lovely things, but WHY we craft, WHY we like to make things, and the benefits therein, which…
Hi there. Hope your Tuesday is going well? Mine is flying by! We are going to the flicks this evening, to see ‘Lady in a Van’ with Maggie Smith. (Funny English language! I’m not going with Maggie Smith at all! I’m actually going with Dave and my brother Steve!) It has had fantastic reviews, but then would you expect anything else with the wonderful Dame Margaret Nathalie Smith behind the wheel? But before I go, I want to blog about…
Hello there. Thanks for popping in. I’m late tonight, but that is due largely to a very long day, wading through orders and Groovi Plates with my teamies! We have a plan! Now I have to trust in the good people at Clarity to make and pick and pack and stack and move the orders out ! Suffice it to say that we have never, ever, in the history of the company, known a weekend like it. I just hope…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Have you had a good Sunday? Dave and I went for lunch with our good friend Mel. You know, the cartographer friend who illustrates so many of our stamps stencils and now Groovi plates. Look Mum! Clogs!!! Then she and I and her two dogs, Rosie and Moth, went for a really long walk through the fields and woods. Didn’t stop talking and sharing ideas and bouncing off each other. I love spending time…
