Hello there! Thanks for popping in… Last week during the Crowborough retreats, we were walking the brayer through acrylic paint, and rolling off any excess paint onto a sheet of copy paper.Remember? And I said I’d blog the scrap! Ready? The first thing is to stare at the scrap until it speaks to you. This could take a while…. Do you see what I see? Squint. It always helps. Fantastic! Perfect! Out with the Tall Trees stamp. Pick a perfect…
Hello there! Thanks for popping in on this sunny Sunday. What a lovely day we have had here in the south! Poodled around the house, sat in the garden, just generally kicked back. Oh. Hang on! Also caught up on laundry, went grocery shopping and cooked breakfast and lunch. My idea of poodled isn’t that poodled really…. Anyhow, I thought I would just post a little step by step project for you. Nothing special. Just a little stencil something. I like…
Hi there. Thanks for stopping by for this last Groovi Day! I just wanted to say thanks for all the feedback on the Groovi week and the orders – the machines have been on overdrive trying to keep up with the demand! And I want to thank my dear friend, Paul Church, for prepping this blog for me, so that I would have an evening off. How kind is that?! Below is another Groovi set – Three Doves and Sprig…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Lots of lovely, talented ladies at the retreat again today; it was great fun and I think they all had a good time. But I’m starting to feel my age, have eaten way too much – and that bed is definitely calling my name! Actually, Friday’s blog a private peak, right? Well to be honest, I could really do with a good laugh. All this worrying about Dave, and not being able to do anything is…
Hello there, and welcome to Day 6 of our Groovi Week! Or is it 5? Losing count of time here in our little Crowborough Retreat Bubble! Speaking of bubbles, there’s a Carp Fish plate I want to show you today, which is very cool to use. And this Nested Squares plate is a must have too. Let’s sit down, cast our line, and see what we reel in… Make a large square frame first. Divide it into 2 unequal parts. Slot…

So the random luck recipient is…… CHRIS KELLY. Chris! Email me your address, so we can send you your blog candy xxx xxx
Hello there! Thanks for popping in! Spent a fab day today with yet another lovely group of crafty folks. I know most of them, so it’s a very comfortable place for me, too. And many of them are also blog-friends, so it’s great to hook up in the flesh, as it were!!! Lynne Bishop turned up with the most fabulous cake this morning! Look!!! Check out the brayer and the Jo’s Bubbles stencil!! See the Pale Blue paint leaking? And…

Hi there. good to see you! It feels very strange not to be on TV this morning. 7 years of every first Sunday of the month add up to a lot of Sundays. If I were a rugby player, I’d surely get a tankard, engraved with ‘Player who played the most first Sundays of each month without a break, and without injury’. But there you go. Happy to report that Dave is feeling a little better. Still undergoing tests. Still…
