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…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Apologies for cancelling the SHAC this morning; Dad is poorly again, so my attention and focus is with family right now. He’s a fighter, true grit, and I’m sure he’ll come through this, but there is so much going on at work too, that I had to claw back a few hours, and the SHAC does take up 2 mornings a week. After the retreats, we can start again. That’ll give me a break,…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. If you were watching Groovi Tuesday this morning, you will have seen a gatecrash, when we busted in to sing Happy Birthday to Paul. 50 today!! Maybe you know this, maybe you don’t. Paul and I aren’t just colleagues; we are very close friends. Have been for many years, long before we started working together. I love him dearly, but with Paul what’s not to love? He is kind, considerate, creative, generous to a…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Hearty congratulations to the young English women who won the European Cup last night! What a game! And what a team. And to come up against the Germans, the absolute leaders! It was such a tight game! The teams were so evenly matched – it really could have gone either way. But for the first time since 1966, it was the English women who brought a major competition trophy home. Did you see it?…

Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just ticked all the boxes and packed all the boxes ready for a busy couple of days on Create & Craft TV, starting tomorrow at 4pm. That’s when we release 5 brand new, glorious Christmas plates, illustrated by Linda Williams. We’re calling them our Groovi Christmas Treasures Collection, because the illustrations are from her original Pergamano Book of Christmas Treasures. They’re perfect for Groovi plates, just perfect. And we‘ve added carol wraps too, which…
