Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Been gutting my artroom today, clearing out, filing, putting back this year’s piles and piles of art and work and stamps and stuff, which I neglected to put away tidily as I went. It‘s not the way I roll. When I’m in the arty zone, chaos ensues. But it’s fine. Nothing that a couple of days won’t sort out. It’s quite thereapeutic, I have to say. No noise, no music, no radio, no nothing….
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just realised that there is a particularly lovely set of Clarity Christmas Stamps (and in Groovi too) which haven’t been out at all this year. That’s what happens when you have such a vast selection; there just aren’t enough opportunities to show everything off! I love these aperture stamps. 2017 or even earlier… Here’s a little how to I have dug out, to show you how they work. Cor! Here’s the leafy canvas too….
Hi there Thanks for popping in. When was the last time you bought a new outfit for going out? Been a while if you’re like me! Apart from TV shows and the SHACK Shac, nobody sees me! And even then, I could be wearing pyjama bottoms – you only ever see the top half! That said, I am glad and grateful to have those reasons for getting my make up on and making an effort most days. I honestly don’t…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just a quick demo on scrap showing how to use those fabulous Woodland masks which we were showcasing on HOCHANDA this morning. Hours of playtime…I just worked on a piece of painty scrap here. It’s that simple, no words required! Just follow the pictures! There you go. Ab Fab these are! I copied and pasted this from the 2018 Calendar! My oh my. How times have changed since then. CLICK HERE TO TREAT OURSELF!…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Busy day on HOCHANDA! The 6pm Birds on a Wire and Woodland Stamps are in full swing, so just a quickie before Paul goes back to the woods at 8pm!! What a wonderful set of stamps these are! More than any other collections, these will be the ones that will remind me of the SHAC-Shack in the future. I guess it’s because the Woods have been the only outdoors many of us have been…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Been working on the Christmas TV Show today. Every year we have a one hour TV show on Christmas Day. Don’t know exactly what time yet, but today was the day I put the new stamps through their paces. And I am VERY happy to tell you they have come out EXACTLY how I pictured them! So chuffed. There’s a Winterland Stampset, which I love. You know the one… Well, a few weeks ago,…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Nearly there. That sounds much more encouraging than not there yet, don’t you agree? You can look at everything from two different angles, can’t you. I try hard to look at things in a positive light. It doesn’t come naturally, especially when I’m tired. Hochanda TV prep for example. Nearly there. A few hours tomorrow, and then I’ll be good to go. Flipside: Didn’t manage to finish prep today, so will have to work…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Been revving up the engine ready for HOCHANDA TV on Sunday 2-4pm and Sunday evening ODS. It’s a pretty special Sunday actually, because we will be looking back at the SHAC SHAC doodles, and all the wonderful art we have created along the way. I’ve waited until the last TV shows of the year to launch what I consider to be our absolute favourites too! I hope you agree. Here’s a little peek at…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Wednesday’s blog from me to you, right? Well, here’s a little Kitten catch-up from me to you! It’s crazy to see how quickly our little Vikings are growing! To think that Ragnar and Erik were this tiny when they came to live with us… Within a week they were already starting to change, and they’d definitely taken to the wicker chair in the kitchen.. Great launchpad! They like a bit of crafting too, so…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. It’s time to make those Christmas cards, isn’t it? The post office will be caving this season, what with all the online shopping we are resorting to in an attempt to stay safe. So the sooner we get them in the post – the better! I imagine most of you good people will have already made a good start, and many of you will alrady have finished yours! Ask me how I’m getting on….
