#ClarityOpenDayFestival -SHAC Share!

Hello hello! Grace here

Happy Monday!

Thank you for sharing all of your artwork and stories all weekend, they have been so uplifting and moving to read. We took so many of your jackanory stories, put them in a raffle and picked one lucky winner out! Thank you Dawn! What a lovely story too, I hope you don’t mind us sharing it here…

Dawn, please email me (grace@claritystamp.com) to claim your £50 Clarity Gift Voucher 🙂 Woo hoo!


WHAT A WEEKEND IT HAS BEEN! We have had Clarity Craftalongs, a Pyjama Party, a coffee morning with Mum & Linda, umpteen giveaways, so many jackanory stories, team inspiration & cards shared on Clarity Worldwide and Groovi Worldwide, plus the 25% sale on our website (which is still going on until midnight UK time tonight)!! BLIMEY. Have you had fun?

To keep the fun going a little longer, we asked you to share your SHAC SHACK artwork online, and boy did you! Have a gander at these awesome pieces of art created by you lovely people!

Wow! Aren’t they all just fantastic? What an epic community the SHAC Shack is. Each piece is so impressive. And so many stories behind them all.

If your SHAC SHACK artwork is showcased in this ‘ere blog, please email me with the subject ‘#SHACShare’ and I will arrange a £5 gift voucher to be sent to all 36 of you! 🙂 We’re feeling generous!

Please do check out our sale, if you haven’t yet already! There are some fabulous bargains to be had. Until midnight tonight!

Make sure to check all of the blog giveaways that Mum and I have put together. Pretty sure Mum has done 8 of them, plus a warm up giveaway. And I have multiple giveaways on the ClarityMatters blogs too. We’ll give you until midnight tonight before we start collating entries and picking winners!

Thank you so much for joining us for our #ClarityOpenDayFestival and making it all worthwhile. We love you for it!

Travel gently…

Lotsa love, Grace xo

    Wow ! What a lot of work you’ve put in there Grace to put those together, one of them is mine, so thanks so much. Well done Dawn with your crafting jackanory. I would never have done parchment without Groovi that’s for sure. What with that and the Shac Shac I’d have never thought I’d be able to do anything like what I have managed thanks to your Mum’s time throughout the pandemic. Thank you so much for the voucher too, your mum was talking about some fabulous new dies so I might wait for them to appear and put it towards them but, then again, bet it will burn a hole in my pocket LOL !!! And be gone long before. X

    Congratulations Dawn. Your groovi card is beautiful.
    I admire everyone’s groovi and parchment work, it’s always so elegant.
    Thank you Grace for picking my card. Going to go look for your email address.
    This was a fun weekend. It’s great to be able to see everyone’s work, and look back at the shac shack bus journey. It must be ready for a service or at least and oil change.

    I’m so delighted to see my Hawaii picture on the gallery! Thank you so much!
    What a wonderful weekend, Barbara you are truly an unsung hero, you have given up so much of your time to keep us all company during these difficult times. Your infectious laughter has cheered me up immensely, you’ve kept me engrossed with your wonderful reminisces and in between all that you’ve taught me that in fact I can draw, I can colour and there’s no such word as can’t! Thank you doesn’t seem enough!
    Grace, you truly have a fantastic mum, cherish her!

    Woo hoo indeed!
    Thank you so much for picking my Jackanory story – I am so happy to have this card showcased as it was very special to me; and I was glad of the opportunity to share the story of how Clarity always promotes a can-do attitude instead of the negativity that so often comes from other quarters. It’s just the same with the Shac-shack – how many people have developed a true talent for drawing through the teaching and encouragement from Barb, and what wonderful artwork!
    Fantastic Virtual Open Day Festival!

    Wow, what a fun weekend that was and what amazing artwork on show. Well done everyone on some truly inspiring pieces and lovely stories. Thank you Grace for all the hard work you’ve put in on the Blog and putting the Gallery together. From Friday’s Craftalong-a-Barbie and the PJ party through to the wonderful coffee morning with Linda and Barbara and all the Blog goodies along the way it has been a fun and entertaining weekend – same again next year or hopefully the real deal with Clarity Open Days back in the calendar?

    Dear Grace,I am so honoured to have my work included with all the other samples !
    Thank you so much for the great weekend fun and congratulations to Dawn !
    Clarity is more than just a crafting company its a community that I enjoy hanging out with .I never really thought of starting a bucket list but lately I’m thinking of how amazing it would be to travel to the UK (when safety permits ) and maybe stay and do a weekend retreat and meet some fellow crafters in the Clarity community .Much better than planning a skydive or bungee jump !
    Many thanks again ,will send an email to you Grace .

    Amazing work from everyone. I’ve not been able to join the SHAC shack, but have loved watching everyone’s creations develop over the last year and a bit. I’m in awe of what everyone produces.
    Huge thanks to you, Grace, for all your hard work over the weekend – it can’t have been quick to pull all these fab photos together and produce the blogs! xxx
