<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Hi everyone.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I hope you are all well.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I can see that plenty of you have been misbehaving</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">and taking advantage of my naughtiness.<br />I won't be naming names, but I know who you are!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Today's Meet the Artist is</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Lynne & Fred</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw9hJHPawB73JnLBXWdHoa-pINb6lD6Yw2Jv7lFSubm1n_3tRgBxuTgWMPTeiSakr4k4fcLzPkHNLVyJqCDkAxelQLZWHOzcEFrq9Pc8LhEaQG1b6YkdhMBoq-Ht80n35urT3bDa8V6vHR/s1600/Card+2.0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw9hJHPawB73JnLBXWdHoa-pINb6lD6Yw2Jv7lFSubm1n_3tRgBxuTgWMPTeiSakr4k4fcLzPkHNLVyJqCDkAxelQLZWHOzcEFrq9Pc8LhEaQG1b6YkdhMBoq-Ht80n35urT3bDa8V6vHR/s640/Card+2.0.jpg" width="638" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Now it is hard to decide who made this card,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I am sure that Fred had some input (secret crafter!)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">So let's have a look at what Fred, oops I mean Lynne has done:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Place the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/leafy-swirl-stencil-7-x-7?variant=6730767809">Leafy Swirl 7" x 7" stencil</a> onto a piece of copy paper</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">and ink up the stencil using a <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/versamark-ink-pad?variant=7455825345">Versamark ink pad</a>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Take a piece of <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/matte-black-card-a4-x40-br-uk-eu-only?variant=28545296833">A4 black card</a> and lightly dust with talcum powder.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Place the stencil, ink side down onto the card</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">and run through your die cutting machine</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">or as Barbara refers to it, a mangle!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Put to one side.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Take the the butterfly from the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/gerbera-butterfly-br-unmounted-clear-stamp-set?variant=36115024577">Gerbera & Butterfly</a> stamp set </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>(currently Offer of the Month = half price!)</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"> and ink up with a <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/versamark-ink-pad?variant=7455825345">Versamark ink pad</a> and stamp onto a piece of <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/matte-black-card-a4-x40-br-uk-eu-only?variant=28545296833">black card</a>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">(make sure you dust the black card with talcum powder first!)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Now the magic begins!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Take a selection of <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/mica-powder">Perfect Pearls Mica Powders</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><i>(we have just taken delivery of some new colours!)</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">and a <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/pure-sable-hair-paintbrush-no-6?variant=7048269697">No.6 Sable Brush</a> and gently brush </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">the powder over the stencil and stamped design.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Take a clean Clarity Stencil brush and dust off the excess. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">If you have used too much powder, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">you could put the excess into an empty pot and </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">you will then have your very own colour combination.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Trim back the stamped image and mat onto a white piece of card.<br />Take a <a href="https://claritystamp.com/search?type=product&q=stardust">Gelly Roll Stardust Clear pen</a> and create a wiggly border to frame your butterfly.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Use some <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/perga-glitter-br-ultra-fine-glitter-6-pots?variant=35756184833">Perga Glitter</a> to add some detail to the butterfly</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Trim back the stencil piece and mount onto a card blank, add your butterfly topper and a greeting of your choice.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">So, what was the purpose of the talcum powder? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Due to the high pigment content in the Perfect Pearls Mica Powders, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">it can leave a residue on the card, just like embossing powder.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The talcum powder helps to prevent this from happening.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The Perfect Pearls Mica Powders are are great colour medium.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Here are just a few things you can do with them:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Use as above with a Versamark Ink pad<br />Add to water in a Spritzer Bottle<br />Mix with Relief Paste<br />Use as a paint</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span>
</span><br />

<center>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Hi there.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Thanks for popping in.</span></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">It's Tuesday, so you know what that means...</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">It's time for another YouTube Tuesday instalment!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br />When working with parchment, we know that it can be difficult to attach our finished piece to a card due to the translucency of the parchment.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">In this weeks how-to guide, Rossella Cottrell shows us how to use our Perga Brads to attach our finished artwork to a piece of our Designer Paper.</span></center>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">So lets have a look at how Mel has created her card:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Take a piece of <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/new-products/products/stencil-card-7-x-7-100-sheets?variant=6958606145">7" x 7" stencil card</a> and attach the </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/wild-seed-head-stencil-7-x-7?variant=31628769537">Wild Seed Head</a> stencil by creating a hinge at the top using low tack tape.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Take a selection of the<a href="https://claritystamp.com/search?type=product&q=artistry"> Artistry Ink Pads</a> and apply colour through the stencil using the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/spot-on-sponges-7-packs-for-the-price-of-5?variant=37169882625">Spot On Sponges</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>Top tip</b> when applying the colour, load up the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/spot-on-sponges-7-packs-for-the-price-of-5?variant=37169882625">Spot On Sponge</a> and then dab, dab, dab onto a scrap of paper. Then gently dab, dab, dab through the stencil.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">By doing this, you can control the colour being applied.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Lift up the stencil to make sure that you are happy with the result. If you want to apply more colour, you can lower the stencil back in place and continue.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">When you have finished, remove the stencil and trim back your work.<br />Mount onto a black piece of card or paper and then onto a card blank.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Sooooooooo, what shall I add to the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/offers">20% Blog Offer</a>?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br />How about the 5 different stencils Melanie designed,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">available individually or as a complete bundle!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Hi everyone.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I hope you are all well.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I think that I may have to go into hiding again tomorrow.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> All this naughtiness seems to have rubbed off on you all!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The picking and packing teams are going to be very busy.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">What with the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/30-30-sale">30/30 Sunshine Sale</a></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">One of the great things about the Groovi system, </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">is the ability to easily personalise a project.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Create a frame using the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/nested-squares-and-small-alphabet-frame-br-a4-square-groovi-plate?variant=29887302337">Nested Square Extension</a> plate.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Use the Art Deco alphabet on the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/octagon-extension-with-art-deco-alphabet-br-groovi-plate-a4-square?variant=32502481729">Nested Octagon Extension</a> plate to spell out Barb.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Remember that when you are spelling a word, </i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>you are spelling it in reverse.</i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Barb = braB</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Now it's time to get creative using some of the dangles</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">from the plates that Linda Williams designed.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Once you are happy with your dangly bits! (oooh err missus!)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Add some colour with <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/perga-liners-21452?variant=29168005697">Perga Liners</a> or <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/perga-colours-exclusive-21432?variant=29167952065">Perga Colour Exclusive</a> pens.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Then mount on <a href="https://claritystamp.com/search?type=product&q=designer">Designer Paper</a></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Hi everyone.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I hope you have all had an enjoyable Saturday.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Today, was a day of doing nothing for me. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">All this being naughty is very tiring!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So today's Meet the Artist is</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Linda Page</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Here is how I think that Linda has created her card:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Take a piece of A5 clear parchment and trace out the daisy from </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/lindas-123-flowers-a-br-a4-square-groovi-plate-br-set-gro-fl-40940-15?variant=7143377961008">Linda Williams 123 Flowers A4 Square</a> Groovi plate </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">using either the Groovi No.2 (1.3mm) embossing tool or</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/small-ball-1-5mm-10011-br-embossing-tool?variant=28536704705">Pergamano 1.5mm embossing tool</a>. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">When you use the larger embossing tool, the line art will be softer.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This will make it easier when you want to do white work. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Slowly build up the white work, leaving it in between layers to get it really white. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">You can either use the soft side of the A4 Dual Purpose Black mat or the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/embossing-mat-excellent-31411?variant=29183205825">Pergamano Excellent Mat</a> (my preferred choice!)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Start with the largest embossing ball tool and reduce in size for each layer. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">If you are struggling with your white work,</span><span style="font-size: large;"> you might want to try </span><a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/rossellas-favourites-br-pergamano-tool-bundle?variant=30918784705" style="font-size: x-large;">Rossella's Favourites</a><span style="font-size: large;"> - the shading tools.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Apply some colour using <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/perga-liners-21452?variant=29168005697">Perga Liner</a> pencils or <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/perga-colours-exclusive-21432?variant=29167952065">Perga Colours Exclusive</a> pens.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Use the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/new-products/products/a4-straight-basic-piercing-grid?variant=31660824193">A4 Bold Basic Straight Grid</a> to emboss and perforate a frame and then picot cut.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Don't forget that you emboss from the back </i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>and perforate from the front.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Take a piece of <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/parchment-paper/products/powder-blue-x10-br-groovi-soft-tones-parchment-paper-a4?variant=28536318785">A4 Powder Blue</a> parchment and emboss a frame using the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/new-products/products/a4-straight-basic-piercing-grid?variant=31660824193">A4 Bold Basic Straight Grid</a>, perforate the edge and then picot cut.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Now comes the hard part!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I am guessing that Linda has created her own pattern for the largest frame, but I can see that it has been created using a Straight Grid.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you are new to gridwork, then for me the Pattern Grids that Tina Cox created are a great place to get started, especially when used in conjunction with the ii Book.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We currently have a special offer on the</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/clarity-ii-book-parchment-perforating-guide-bundle?variant=32343908289">Straight Pattern Border & ii Book</a></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">and the </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/clarity-ii-book-parchment-perforating-guide-bundle-br-for-diagonal-border-pattern-grid-no-1?variant=36094775425">Diagonal Pattern Border & ii Book</a></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">So, I am going to be very naughty and add all of the individual plates to the 20% Blog Offers.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">So, let me see if I can work out what Heather has done.....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Take a piece of 7"x7" Stencil card attach the</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">This is how I think Pat has created today's card:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Take a piece of <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/new-products/products/stencil-card-7-x-7-100-sheets?variant=6958606145">7" x 7" stencil card</a>, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">using a selection of <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/inkpads-inks/type_artistry-ink">Artistry Ink Pads</a>, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">apply the colour with our <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/claritystencil-brushes-set-of-4?variant=6954421441">Stencil Brushes</a>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">When you are happy with the blend of colours,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">position <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/offers/products/jos-bubbles-stencil-7-x-7?variant=6767359937">Jo's Bubbles</a> stencil over the card.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Take a <a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/artistry-ink-blending-set?variant=32339177281">blending tool</a> and lightly spritz with water, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">making sure that the sponge is not to wet, just damp.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Then dab, dab, dab through the stencil.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">This will slowly start to lift the colour away.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Keep repeating until you are happy </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">you have removed enough colour. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">If you remove to much colour, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">wait for the card to dry and </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">then reapply with the Stencil brushes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">When you have finished removing the colour let the card dry.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Good evening everyone.<br /><br />I hope you have all had a good day</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and the weather has been nice.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I had a great day in Peterborough,</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">teaching a lovely group of ladies.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Here is birthday card no.3</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">from Nikki</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="636" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL8vCWlUTLTtho1U8zab-EqbRXK5nGCVcaAWhhHFF28_IG_asWgskHDvGaCvVzkpfkMFas8PmpfVXn-7Dj7VR32UuELWYPlkmFK6VUVnQsRixDIMQwJ-Lg3d1Y9bv5gWygb8m5QfTlYWLe/s640/Card+5.0.jpg" width="640" /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">So let's have a look at what Nikki has done......</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Nikki has used the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/offers/products/roses-groovi-plate-a5?variant=11289327873">Roses</a> plate just as it comes and then used the Happy Birthday corners from the <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/offers/products/celtic-corners-br-a5-square-groovi-plate-br-set-gro-pa-40907-03?variant=805484232705">Celtic Corners</a> plate.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Now, I can only have a guess at what Nikki has done, so if Nikki is reading the blog, please correct me!<br /><br />Trace out the design on <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/parchment-paper/products/pink-x20-br-groovi-two-tone-parchment-paper-a5?variant=28535975809">Pink Parchment</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Remove the colour on the back of the parchment</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">using a <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/new-products/products/eraser-pencil-double-ended?variant=7413178400816">Faber-Castell eraser pencil</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> and then on the back, colour the leaves and roses with either</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://claritystamp.com/products/perga-liners-21452?variant=29168005697">Perga Liners</a> or <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/pergamano/products/perga-colours-exclusive-21432?variant=29167952065">Perga Colour Exclusive</a><br />Use a <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/new-products/products/claritystencil-brushes-set-of-4?variant=6954421441">Stencil Brush</a> and an <a href="https://claritystamp.com/search?type=product&q=artistry">Artistry Ink Pad</a> to brush colour around the outside edges, again on the back.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Attach to a card blank with some <a href="https://claritystamp.com/search?type=product&q=brads">Perga Brads</a></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Hi everyone!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I hope you are all well and keeping out of trouble.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Here is birthday card no.2</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">from Glynis and Pete</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHDZctudrNLA0Qt_UCTKyxWozSyL-6IxHAXnGdkukPBjRZ8EZBtJL7k8sjDvn40kMWVSNv1EOZMlo2OKmEHIUEIe_L2oTVDrmTiqbeOD3LW4tLy-WcPWaxsQR6kxqF3SP6Gyi5fND_eETR/s1600/Card+4.0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="351" data-original-width="341" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHDZctudrNLA0Qt_UCTKyxWozSyL-6IxHAXnGdkukPBjRZ8EZBtJL7k8sjDvn40kMWVSNv1EOZMlo2OKmEHIUEIe_L2oTVDrmTiqbeOD3LW4tLy-WcPWaxsQR6kxqF3SP6Gyi5fND_eETR/s640/Card+4.0.jpg" width="619" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It looks like Pete's parching skills are improving! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Then again, has does have a very good teacher in Glynis!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So lets have a look at what Glynis has used.....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I must admit, that I did have to send Glynis a message asking what plates she had used. I could see that Linda's Bees, Butterflies & Dragonflies had been used,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">but after that, I had no idea!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Being Mr Pergaman,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">I know exactly what tools Glynis has used:</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hi there.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Thanks for popping in.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">Are you ready for something a little different?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">Back in March it was my birthday, and I received so many beautiful handmade cards from friends, family and customers.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">It blows me away how much of their time people are prepared to invest in making these wonderful artpieces for me.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And to those good people I want to say a big thank you.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">For more than you know.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Dave and I are stepping back for a couple of weeks. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">It’s been so full on for so long, and it’s time to regroup and figure out what’s what again. All we do is think about Clarity. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Every waking hour of every day.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">So we have decided to park it for a fortnight, and go be ourselves -</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">free of work and buyers and TV shows and - the blog. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This time I am travelling light. No </span><span style="font-size: large;">ipad or computer. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Just Dave and a diary. </span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">So to the birthday cards. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Little did you know when you sent them to me how grateful I would be to you. Because not only did you give me your time in the making, but you are also about to give me MY time.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And what a gift that is to a busy person.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">One day at a time I will invite you to MEET THE ARTIST.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I do hope that you are all okay with this idea!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Paul and I made a plan. I have laid out all the lovely art in the days to come, and he will steer the blog in my absence. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">We will present the lovely art and artist, write a little how to,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">and attach a 20% special offer to some of the ingredients.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The special offers will accumulate, and stay in place until we get back in a couple of weeks time. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">So thank you again for the thoughtful and lovely cards.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">And thank you even more for the gift of time. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The first offering is a Gelpress masterpiece by Hazel and Steve</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Hi there.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Thanks for popping in.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Bit late.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Ally Pally break down and drive home takes as long as it takes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">And whilst we had fun and a laugh, it still is very knackering!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">What a smashing bunch of people to work with though.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Here we have 3 key players at Clarity. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">On the left is our diamond Jayne. She is head of TV fulfillment. You order anything from Hochanda - her department dispatches. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Then centrestage, we have lovely Lisa.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Now Lisa is a Graphic Designer. She is in charge of Stamp processing and Mask processing. She prepares the artwork for the stamps and masks, and all the artboards. Big Job. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">On the right is our Debbie. Now she’s the one you really want to get on with! She’s head of Retail picking! Order it from Clarity, and it will go through her department. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hi there!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Thanks for popping in.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Just got in from Ally Pally.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">What a day!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It was packed! In all the many years we have done that show, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">it has never been so busy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">And we had a much bigger stand this time too!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So Dave has shot out to get the curry,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and my job is to lay the table, heat the plates and blog!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So it’s a quickie!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">How about a limerick?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We haven’t had a limerick competition for ages!<br />And I do enjoy them so much, don’t you?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This is how it works.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I write the first two lines of the limerick.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">You copy paste them into a comment below,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> and then finish the limerick.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Then next week, on Tuesday,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">we will get the laughometer out at work, and pick a winner.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">And that lucky, clever winner will receive a </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> £30 CLARITY GIFT VOUCHER.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Ready?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Here goes....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">There once was a lady called Sally,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Who went up to Ally Pally. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Over to you Virgil!!!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hi there.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Just go in the door after setting up for the Exhibition this weekend at Ally pally.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Friday’s blog a private peek, right?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Well I want to talk about Maya Angelou today.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">She would have been 90 years old this week.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">She was my shero. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">She made me laugh, cry, think and learn.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">What an inspirational woman, eh? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">All woman, that woman.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWmbwoeD6tHbag-GQ6jGImxDgOFQH-mkursvbpYhmEEZp0A7fAWLQBY9iye-4fzKuBARCgUPk03HY6bDeLJYKB5xmS4H1pmdgmzUI9M3gl8PTOrL2G1o1eAslrgbFa3Jlu6W-rhTuTYGJ6/s1600/images-4.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWmbwoeD6tHbag-GQ6jGImxDgOFQH-mkursvbpYhmEEZp0A7fAWLQBY9iye-4fzKuBARCgUPk03HY6bDeLJYKB5xmS4H1pmdgmzUI9M3gl8PTOrL2G1o1eAslrgbFa3Jlu6W-rhTuTYGJ6/s400/images-4.jpg" /></a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I was sitting in the Glide Church in San Francisco many moons ago, when I lived there, and quite by chance Dr. Angelou was in the audience.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Well, the Reverend Cecile Williams - another man from whom I learned so much over years -</span> <span style="font-size: large;">handed the whole service over to her. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Invited her up to the front, and boom. I just couldn’t believe it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My shero right there, in front of me. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">She just filled the room for over an hour with her wisdom and poetry and life stories. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">What a phenomenal human being. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">To be in her presence was a privilege like nothing I have ever experienced. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">She died a few years ago. But not in my memory.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I think of her often, of her words and sage thoughts. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgL7CHysQDZ-fMlQvPfrQG3e3dAQfz9HfTMUSwbxHNde-k6zeCNWolXD1PNcG3IN0YAskahpKf_zlJT142Yx3awz5uEpD_idNgePnOrjkMmABl5c4qmlto0IiMZiiHHUWjbTGKUeU60-PV1/s1600/images-5.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgL7CHysQDZ-fMlQvPfrQG3e3dAQfz9HfTMUSwbxHNde-k6zeCNWolXD1PNcG3IN0YAskahpKf_zlJT142Yx3awz5uEpD_idNgePnOrjkMmABl5c4qmlto0IiMZiiHHUWjbTGKUeU60-PV1/s400/images-5.jpg" /></a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Here’s my Maya Angelou quote for today:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>To be present in all things and thankful for all things.</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">If I can live that every day, I shall be a much richer person for it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Next week we will be in San Francisco, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and you absolutely KNOW where we will be on Sunday morning!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Love & Hugs,</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hi there!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Thanks for popping in.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Thursday’s blog is always blue, right? Well I thought I would step by step that calamity of a demo from TV on Sunday.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">You know the one - when the paint stuck to the Gelplate and the print wouldn’t shift. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Ah well. It happens to the best of us! And what can you do on LIVE TV except keep on truckin??</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I did figure out something though - alcohol ink definitely dries the Gel Plate out! I had used the actual rogue plate when I was playing with alcohol ink the week before. I had conditioned it with some baby oil, but clearly not enough. Silly me for not cracking open a new plate for a TV show. But at least YOU know now! Once I lubricated the same plate with more oil when I got home, it was fine, but astringent alcohol inks deffo suck the juice out of the Gelli!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So let’s look again at the process....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Stamp the lovely <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/as-seen-on-tv/products/sailor-round-fine-line-mask-br-unmounted-clear-stamp?variant=7293896851504">yacht stamp</a> into the centre of a piece of <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/new-products/products/stencil-card-7-x-7-100-sheets">stencil card </a>before you begin. Use <a href="https://claritystamp.com/collections/new-products/products/archival-inkpad-black">Black Archival. </a></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">Hi there.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Thanks for popping in.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Very happy to be a crafter today!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Why?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Well, Alexa made me think this morning.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Gosh, I thought. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">She recognises my voice, she answers my requests and she even tells me jokes. Every now and then, Siri pipes up with </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Sorry, I didn’t quite catch that”.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It’s all around us. AI. And we thought it would never happen, didn’t we? Well, I did. Not in my lifetime, I said. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">When I was at university, studying languages and translation, and training to become an interpreter, the first computers were being developed. They were the size of houses, and programming was insanely complex. For a moment, we in the language faculty all gasped - “will they invent a computerised translator?”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Nah” we responded arrogantly, “Semantics Timothy, semantics”.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Oh how we laughed when the first feeble attempts were made. Google Translate was a great source of amusement to us language boffins, I can tell you. Nothing like activating the translate option for a giggle. I remember when a certain shopping channel used a computerized translator on a German channel. ‘Sue Wilson Dies’ was translated, ‘Sue Wilson dies’ (as in brown bread) And translated back into English, instead of </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">‘free shipping with orders over </span><span style="font-size: large;">€</span><span style="font-size: large;">30’, it read </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">FREE CRUISE WITH EVERY ORDER OVER €30</span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Tickled me pink.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">But now Artificial Intelligence has it down. It can read to me in perfect English, or German or Swahili; it can pick up my voice and write for me in any language I care to use. It can calculate numbers faster than any human being, let alone me with my modest O level maths, and it can steer a plane without a pilot. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">When did the impossible become a reality? Nowadays we even take those impossible things for granted. Very much so. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Doesn’t mean life is easier. Doesn’t mean we’re happier. Or less overwhelmed. Or less anxious. Or richer. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Would my job as a translator be secure nowadays? Nope.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">A button-click away from redundancy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So, yes. I am a very, very happy and grateful crafter.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Hi there.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Easter Greetings!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Thanks for joining me.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It’s our lad’s 26th birthday today too.<br />So Happy Birthday Mark !!!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I know that both kids ready the blog most days, </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">so I have to be careful what I say! But Mark has grown into such a smashing young man. Very smart, very handsome and very kind. What more can a Mum want? Oh. That’s right. And very happy. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So this little Groovi Card is for you today, Marky boy! A little flowery for your taste, I know. Hence the England rugby shirt in the post!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">So let’s see. Whilst Linda, Paul and I are pedalling away on telly today, </span><span style="font-size: large;">here’s a taste of the lovely plates Linda designed for the Easter show this evening...Flowers and Lace:</span></div>

<span style="font-size: medium;">Looking ahead to my next move, I want to do whitework in the little frill on the inside. So I have flipped to a larger tool, the No. 2 from the Starter Kit. I could use the No. 1 and not press so hard too. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: medium;">Now to join up the shape...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">If I flip the parchment and simply repeat the whole piece, </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">I get an oval, see?</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">For all it’s worth, I think this Alphabet plate is really invaluable. The lettering is beautiful and the perfect size, and if you have the nested squares, then this is the add on for when you want to frame larger pieces.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Move the artwork to your pink pergamano mat. Again, a got-to-have. You can do the following whitework on the soft side of the black mat in the Starter Kit, but the pink mat is so much easier and more forgiving!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">If you want a more pastel colour than the vibrant tones of the pens, use the Groovi Guard as a blening mat. Simply add a little colour from the pen to the Groovi Guard, add a tiny amount of water, and then use one of our amazing, what we’ve all been waiting for blending nibs to apply the colour.</span></div>
