Hello there! Having left the massive urban sprawl that is Los Angeles, we got on a small plane and came to tuck ourselves away in the vast Rocky mountains of New Mexico. Quite a temperature drop when you come up 7,000 feet! But Thursday’s blog is always blue, and I wanted to share these skies with you! We are up on a plateau, although you would never know it except that your ears pop as you climb. There is a…
Hello there! Thanks for stopping by! There we were yesterday morning, once again at the crack of dawn, gearing up for the last Clarity TV show at the CHA, when Jim from the UK office texted us some brilliant news: Thanks to you lovely people who voted for Clarity, we won 4 craft awards: Best Rubber Stamp Range (5th year) Best Overall Designer (5th year) Best Craft Blog (1st year) I was also runner up in the Favourite Craft Celebrity…
Hello there! Just a little message here on YouTube Tuesday, because the dates for our Crowborough Open Days have been released! We had such an awesome time last year, with our Clarity Team, that we are doing it again! The dates for our Open Days up north will be announced as soon as we sort out a little glitch with a venue, but we have got ages! It’s only January now!!! So if you were there, either in Crowborough, darn…
Hi there! Thanks for stopping by. Greetings from a hotel room in L.A. Thought that, it being Monday, and Monday’s blog is always Flowers and Trees, I’d revisit the Fantastic Stamp I used here at the Live Launch. The Lone Cypress is one of a collection of three superb stamps and stencils, which can stand alone perfectly, but go together beautifully, if you make sets of notelets to sell, for example. This is the Lone Cypress. Here’s the Napa Valley,…
Greetings from LA at the Create and Craft cocktail party, to celebrate what has been a fantastic launch. To say it has been exciting is putting it mildly. The channel have achieved something quite unique, And yesterday we made history, simulcasting from here to England ! You can still watch the first live Clarity show AND the 2nd show on the US website. Createandcraft.com One more show to record on Tuesday for America, and then our work here is…
Hi guys! Greetings from a hotel room in Anaheim. The world premiere launch was at 7am Pacific time, and if you watched, I do hope you enjoyed it! Apparently the American viewers were delighted with Clarity and Barbie; and Barbie is very glad it’s done. Reminded me a bit of a Sunday roast. You spend hours cooking it – and it’s gone before the oven’s even cooled down! Here we are yesterday, getting set…. Fail to prepare, prepare to fail…
Howdi! Thank you for stopping by. It’s the day before the CHA commences, the biggest Trade Show for craft in the world. And the day before we go out live on TV to 40 million homes in the USA! Yikes! But we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it! Look at this place! No, look at the blue sky! January? Really? Tada! Very excited to be here. both of us. It’s not a jolly or a holiday; far from…
Hi there. Greetings from LA! Here’s a new stencil we have rustled up to compliment Jo’s Bubble stencil! A super Flower Power Stencil. Hope you like what I’ve done with it. See if you can figure it out…. I’ll do a step by step when I get to a Wifi Place and have more time if you like xxx Lots to do here in L.A. today ! Sunshine and a room overlooking the pool! Oh! And I brought the cozzy…
Hi Guys! Thanks so much for stopping by! How are y’all? Yes, as you may well be aware, we are on our way to sunny LA for the World premier of Claritystamps in the States. Whoever would have thought that this little English company that is Claritystamp would be headlining a TV launch in the States? When? Where? I will tell you everything I know on Friday, when we’re there. In the meantime, let’s get grounded and do a project….
Hello there. Thanks for stopping by. Just a quickie as they say. well, actually, not so quickie! But a fresh, very simple approach to saying Thank You. How often do we say Thank You? I’m forever thanking people for their help, gifts, friendship. Especially at this time of year. I used this fab Thank You stamp only a couple of days ago, on the January 3rd blog. It really is a handy set. This is a neat way to create…
