But I’ve got to say, you’ll be impressed. Bowled over. I KNOW it!…
Hello there! Thanks for stopping by today. It’s CLARITY YOU TUBE TUESDAY! You may recall (I will never forget) that last week, we launched You Tube Tuesday. There was some hilarity and a mild meltdown, whilst I struggled to get revved up, but I would say that this week is much improved! Amazing what a couple of new cameras and personal focus can do! The video is longer, too. We decided to keep it in real time, and not speed…
Hello there! Thank you so much for stopping by on this rainy Monday morning here in lovely England! I have to tell you. Every so often, a piece of artwork will cross my path which inspires me to want to copy it, to try it, to have a go. Sound familiar? Well, my friend Paul Church sent in a sample this week which just blew me away. It was created using torn strips of masking tape to make fields. Absolutely…
Happy Sunday to you! Thanks for stopping by. I’m on TV this morning, 9-11 Create & Craft, so let’s keep this blog short and sweet. Actually, this stamp kit will be on the show at a cool price I’m told! Check it out! I designed these little box montages years ago, but they do work well for little notelets, birthday cards, weddings, bonbonnieres – all sorts! And the Corner text stamp is another clever one. I’ll show you how to…

Hello there! Good to see you again! Well, Tuesday’s Blog usually rolls back the hours, but today I actually want to launch our Clarity You Tube Channel. Not being able to go to Port Sunlight because of my pain in the neck, I sent Dave instead. This presented me with the opportunity to run a screen test etc. We came in on the weekend to film, when everything was quiet, the phones weren’t ringing, and the machines were all switched…
