Our Saturday Share

Hello hello! Grace here.

I hope this finds you safe, well, and enjoying your Saturday.

Thank you for your lovely comments last weekend. My little brother had a brilliant 30th birthday and we enjoyed our California weekend with him very much! It was a quick one, but we crammed a lot in. I hope you don’t mind me sharing a few photos with you!

Lovely to be able to celebrate with my little bro for a weekend. It’s a long way to go for just 2 days but it was well worth it. 30. Blimey! He’s such a good guy and has made quite a space for himself on the West Coast. Love him!

Anyway, it’s go go go! We got back at 6am Monday morning, straight to work for the week! Painful. But what a week it’s been! Did you enjoy the new launch on telly this week? Really lovely new products that we’re very excited about. You can check out the artwork gallery HERE. Very cool.

Next thing. I’m flying to France tonight to visit my paternal grandmother. Great woman! Sadly, she went completely blind last year (2021 was a pretty rubbish year wasn’t it?!) and I haven’t seen her in 5+ years. It’s more than about time. So please excuse me next weekend. You’ll have the lovely Paul and Stuart blogging for you instead 🙂

Before I dash off to finish packing though, I gathered some absolutely GORGEOUS cards of yours from Clarity Worldwide. Let me share them with you…

Jude Lewis
Karen Ridge
Margaret Rogers
Val Sowerby
Christina Morris
Jan Hamilton
Jacqueline Lewington
Andrea Kettles
Deborah Horton
Christine Parkes
Lesley Jones
Ken Kilminster

Wowsa! Gosh, you’re a talented community of creative individuals. It blows my mind what you come up with week after week. Really really beautiful work.
I wasn’t able to access Groovi Worldwide‘s media folder for some reason, so this week’s blog is mostly inky-stampy loveliness. Apologies, but the technology wasn’t having any of it! I’ll make up for it on my return.

But of course, many of you are still sharing your brilliant sunflower artwork too, as well as sending them to the office with donations enclosed. You’re not only a talented bunch, you’re a caring bunch too. Check these out…

Lovely.

And one more thing! I encouraged you all a while ago to email me your entries and attempts at the various step-by-step projects shared on the ClarityMattersBlog on Sundays. If you did, you’d be in for the chance to win a £30 Clarity Gift Voucher! Thank you for sending me your wonderful artwork in recent weeks! I enjoyed receiving them.
Aaaaaaaand… we have a winner! ***Drumroll please***

Sue Carpenter!

Congratulations, Sue! You smashed it. Please email me (Grace@claritystamp.com) to receive your £30 clarity voucher 🙂

That’s all from me for today. For now, I’m off. It’s time to finish packing for the flight tonight. I better get a move on.

Travel gently, friends.

Lotsa love, Grace xoxo

    Wow that was a surprise when I got to the bottom of your blog !! I am sure I will find something I need on the website – at least that was OH’s reply when I told him after first suggesting I keep it for the Open Days !! Thank you Grace I will send you my details.
    Meanwhile it is lovely to see your pictures from last weekend – you certainly did a lot in 2 days & glad the weather was kind to you.
    Another great selection of artwork again this week some of which I hadn’t noticed on Facebook – perhaps they had sent them direct or was it FB up to its feed tricks ?
    Have a lovely time catcthing up with your Grandmother in France – a lot of family time has been missed over the last 2 years. We must make memories whilst we can as who knows what is round the corner for any of us.

    Thank you for sharing your pictures of your time with your little Bro’ on one of his milestone birthdays. OMG you really packed in a lot! Beautiful artwork (as always) being produced. I’m sure you’ll have a wonderful time in France and that lots of happy tears will be shed but ‘stay safe’. Paul is always a welcome ‘reserve’.
