Getting Groovi!

Hi there! Grace here…

I hope this finds you all safe, happy & healthy?

I was watching my Mum’s doodle session on Wednesday this week, where she starts creasing up giggling. I miss that laugh! Boy, do we laugh a lot when we’re together!!

As she said, laughing is a tonic. And it doesn’t matter how many times I’ve watched her videos I still wheeze along with her. I know many of you do too. She has one of those infectious laughs. I’m blessed to have inherited the same infectious giggles, so the two of us together have no chance. Poor Dave!

I’m sure many of you have seen these videos, but I’m going to share for those that haven’t and those that want to rewatch. I love to bring these back to the surface regularly! Just in case you thought she was losing it… she’s always been like this hahaha! Someone may need a laugh today, and these videos are buried quite deep in our YouTube collection.

Barbara’s Bloopers
Waaay back in the day! That time she almost wet herself on live television.

Well, there ya go! Rewatching these certainly lifted my morning! I remember the outtakes on her DVD’s as a child and they were always my favourite part. I must rewatch those one day soon…

Anyway, on to more serious things! Sort of. Groovi SHAC!

Here is your lovely new challenge for the week!

It’s a bit different, isn’t it? Fab! I look forward to seeing what you do with it. Here are, of course, my favourite challenge cards of the week…

Ann Raymond
Barbara Clare Brown
Christine West
Elizabeth Sykes
Katharine Peace
Julie Campbell
Linda Stringer
Rosalind McLellan
Sue Holland

Wow! You all really swung for the fence with this one. It was hard to tell whether they were even G-SHAC cards because you all got so creative with it. “Search for hearts” was my only hope.

Speaking of! Please can you save your Groovi SHAC cards to this album that is specifically for challenge cards? It’s a great place to collect all of these cards and see each others’ makes! And it definitely makes my searching easier too!

Anyway, utterly fantastic, every time. You never cease to impress!

Have a lovely weekend! I’ll be back tomorrow with another gallery of your work from the week…

Lotsa love, Grace xoxo

    Hi Grace, I agree your Mum does have an infectious laugh. I purchased the art of stamping DVD’s years…….. ago and she creased us up continually bobbing under the desk to get to something. I made the mistake of loaning these discs out and they were never returned and I lost touch with the person but the thought of her doing this raises a smile and giggle. Once again, a lovely selection of artwork.

    Hello Grace,
    Thank you for picking my version of the Groovi Shac. It was certainly a challenge to hand cut the bauble shape. Fresh Cut Nested Bauble Dies for Christmas 2021 perhaps? Lol.
    Love

    Thank you Grace – I feel honoured to have been chosen!!

    I have been furloughed since the end of March and don’t know when I will be going back to work. My week now seems to revolve around the Friday download. I look forward to it arriving each week and then deciding how to interpret it with the plates I have!

    Grace, I remember so well seeing these before. Such a great way to start my day off with a great laughing session. Just love your Mom. Do you you know if your Mom’s DVD’s work on our equipment in North America? Think I checked once before and Clarity UK weren’t certain at that time. Could you please let me know and they would be wonderful to have. Stay safe. Hugs from Canada 🇨🇦

      Unfortunately they don’t work in the US, unless you have a multi regional dvd player. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news! xo

    Thank you, Grace. I loved seeing the bloopers again. Lost it? Your Mum? I hope not because we’re all following her! She just needs a holiday after the horrors. And we all need a good laugh.
