Hi there Thanks for popping in. Those of you who join me in the SHAC Shack will recognise our feathered friends on TV tomorrow! I am launching a smashing collection of beautiful birds, all illustrated by our friend, Mel Turner. You will recognise them all, except perhaps the moorhens? And I don’t think we’ve done the geese in the SHAC either yet. Although they are pretty fabulous. I remember us doing an arty canvas at a summer retreat once. Those…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Thanks for watching the TV shows today if you did. And thanks also for buying our stamps if you did. In the words of Gloria Gaynor, We will survive!

All you lovely SHAC Shackers will be familiar with the drawing and tracing transfer…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Bee-n prepping for tomorrow’s TV Shows at 9am and 1pm on The Craft Store (prev. HOCHANDA). I always have to Bee over-prepared. It’s better that way. So many lovely samples from the clever Clarity Team again too! Linda Spencer sent in a particularly lovely piece of artwork which I thought merited closer inspection. I had to look twice to figure out how she did it – you know what I mean. When a piece…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Want to shine a little light on the new and very arty grunge stamps I shall be showcasing on The Craftstore TV this coming Friday at 9am and 1pm. There are so many fabulous elements in these sets! You don’t realise until you start playing with them. Lucy, one of our clever in-house artists, designed these beauties. She’s definitely got the eye for what works well! And we will also be launching new backdrop…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. You may recall a few weeks back I started to illustrate a new Groovi 9-piece Sampler for Paul to use in the weekly Groovi Tuesday on Facebook LIVE. I just thought it would be cool to tackle a different design, having focussed on that Butterfly Wreath since Groovi Tuesday was introduced. Well, I finished it off and passed it over to Lucy to work her magic and turn it into a Groovi plate. Et…

Hi there Thanks for popping in. On my way to Raku, so my fingers are flying over the keys like a bee’s wings! Or should I say a butterfly’s wings! Yesterday in the moment of Clarity I showed you a clever card by clever Dee Paramour… It intrigued me when I first saw it. The moths and butterflies cut out of parchment and attached only at the body are very cool of course. But it was the background, the circles…
Hi there Thanks for popping . Did you join me for this afternoon’s Moment of Clarity? I enjoyed playing with those Butterfly stamps a lot! I hope you got something out of the session too xx I had to chuckle at myself too. Every single product I touched which was from Ranger, I called out “RANGER10” !! Irritating? Only mildly! Our Ranger shipment landed yesterday, so we’re celebrating with a 10% Discount Code all weekend! All things Ranger available HERE…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Been gearing up for our Moment of Clarity/Craftalong-a-Barbie tomorrow at 3pm. We’re using those beautiful butterfly stamps, illustrated by Cherry Green. I was just chatting to Grace on Facetime whilst stamping out this rather simple, classy, super wall art, that I want to share with you tomorrow too…. “I did the lineart on those!” she said. I had quite forgotten that Grace can also process hand-drawn art in Illustrator. Quite a skill it is…
