Just catching up on...Lovely design.... as always! <br />Just catching up on your weekend blog today as I've had a real craft-fest in the kitchen this weekend and have hardly left the table!<br />Shame about the small cards in the gelli pack (can't understand why anyone would get annoyed with them!), I liked them. Handy size and great for making toppers without any cutting involved but as they will "no longer be", we'll have to use a bit of muscle power cutting the larger card up - but hey-ho. <br />Fantastic inspirational blog over the last 365 days. I often look back at past blogs when I dig out some of the older stamps I have - it's just over a year for me too since I discovered you & the Clarity products and I must say I've enjoyed my crafting much more since! Belated Happy blog-birthday wishes to you. Have a great day, Carole :-) xMrs Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17747923413884157546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-54330746548399036492014-10-20T12:22:55.112+01:002014-10-20T12:22:55.112+01:00I love this geisha and that technique is wonderful...I love this geisha and that technique is wonderful.

Don't ever get despondent over critics and cynics. You will never be able to please everyone because of human idiosyncracies. Different strokes for different folks. What you CAN do is continue with your blog and great quality products and make a hell of a lot of people happy every day. Remember Barb that is no mean feat. You care and therefore so do we....

I haven't christened my Gelli plate yet; I always feel I must clear the decks, take a deep breath and allow loads of time, hence it's remained in its packing. I therefore haven't used the small 'postcards.' but I could see myself using them for gift tags. And maybe even with my Gelli plate!<br />I do agree about trying to see the positive. On a recent train journey ( French TGV) we were delayed by 4 hours due to a fault discovered en route. It was a nuisance for us and distressing for some passengers, but I dread to think what might have happened if the train had continued with a fault. Lucky escape I call it! <br />Always look on the bright side of life ( whistle........)<br /><br />Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08182763347221019269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-4767748832794825182014-10-19T22:06:18.629+01:002014-10-19T22:06:18.629+01:00Lots and lots to enjoy in this demo.

The geisha is really lovely - I know what you mean about some of the others! I really do like the finished piece if artwork and this is something that I will have a go at. You are one of the most inspiring people I know, so thank you for that. I am one of the people who rarely used the small pieces of card, but use loads of the large pieces! Was going to have a real crafty day today, but have no electricity for the day, so very frustrated!
