Hi there Me again! It’s our birthday, and we have something very lovely lined up to launch this weekend, starting at 8pm this evening: A brand new stamp range by Clarity, called KISS KISS stands for Keep it Simple. Keep it Simple Stamps, Stencils, Stash, Stickers ! We have been working on this range for months. As with the Linda Williams Christmas Collection, we have decided to release just a few designs at a time. And this evening, at 8pm,…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Bit of a scramble here, ticking boxes, making sure we’ve remembered everything for our Big Birthday Bash up at Create & Craft , which starts this evening at 6pm. Paul and I are on our way at 10, so fingers crossed the traffic is kind. (Friday? M25?? What am I thinking?!?) We’ve given ourselves 8 hours to do a 2 and a half hour run – that should do! And guess who’s heading up…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Take 2. Let’s look again at the landscape we built out of one of the Scenescape Masks recently. This was yesterday’s blog, using the new Dandelion stamps… This time let’s use darling Ani’s flyaway boy – my absolute favourite stamp ever… Slightly different mask layout, different central image, different new Companion Paper, but also from the Waimea Falls Companion Paper book, and a wonderful script from the new Reflection stamps… Here is another step…
Hi there. Happy Bank Holiday Monday! I’m revving up for our big Birthday bash on Create & Craft next weekend here. One Day at a time and Fake it to Make it all the way!! When you’ve got so much on your plate you lose your appetite, that’s the only path to tread. And when you settle in to the FACT that you can’t change much except your approach, it’s quite ok. There are so many super new designs and…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Hope you’re enjoying your Bank Holiday Weekend? Early bird catches the worm here at Clarity! Paul is filling TV orders, Dave is making Embedders, and I am already looking ahead to next week -THE CLARITY TV WEEKEND OF THE YEAR – our 29th Clarity Birthday. I like Sundays. Early. Fresh. Not many cars. Just the twitter of the birds. The trees in the garden are standing stock still; not even a leaf is moving….
Hi there! Thanks for popping in! Blogging on my phone in the Green Room up at Create & Craft. I certainly like a challenge! Writing on a phone I mean! At 9am on Create & Craft we‘ve got a pretty special celebration show – a cracking show! I‘ve been looking forward to this launch for a while. It‘s about time we added a range of beautiful Mono-colour papers to our Clarity Paper Palette. How often do I waste hours looking…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Apologies for not blogging for so long. So much going on here! We had a lovely time last week with the Clarity retreats, and I shall write a blog with pics and anecdotes at the weekend, after our TV shows. But just for today, I want to tell you about the second collection of Linda’s Groovi Christmas treasures, which are being released tomorrow, Thursday 25th August at 4pm on Create & Craft. Remember last…
Hi there Thank you for popping in. Thank you if you watched, supported or even joined in the first of 5 Christmas Treasures Craftalongs yesterday evening on Youtube/Facebook LIVE If you missed it, here’s the link to the Youtube recording. Thank you to Linda WIlliams, for giving us such beautiful plates to work with, and thank you again to Linda for giving us such a wonderful project to follow together. I have to say, I was pretty chuffed with what…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Paul is up at the new Create & Craft studios, getting set for a rather special Groovi/Pergamano launch. The plates are already selling – that’s nearly 3 hours before the switch is officially flicked! When you see these immaculate flower designs by Linda Williams, you’ll understand why. And check out the little vase extender plate, to enable you to use the Groovi Starter Kit Plate Mate. Not sure what I mean? Tune into watch…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. It’s been a good day today. Dad has once again turned the corner, and was more like his lovely old self when I went to the hospital today. I had gone there with a very heavy heart after the last couple of days. But this morning he was back in the room, so to speak. True grit. Double portion of lunch AND pudding. Yep. his appetite was certainly back too! I feel much happier…
