Saturday Share: Make Art Every Day
Hello hello! Grace here.
Welcome to another Saturday Share!
This week’s blog is going to look a little different because we’re shining the spotlight on all the wonderful artwork you’ve been sharing as part of Barbara’s August Arty Challenge. It’s been such a joy watching the gallery grow day by day, and seeing how you’ve all interpreted the prompts in your own unique ways.
If you haven’t joined in yet, don’t worry, there’s still plenty of time! I’ll pop a link to the main challenge page HERE, where you’ll find all the details and can jump in whenever you’re ready.
One little note before we begin… there is SO much artwork being shared across our groups that collecting it all together is quite the task! I’ve done my absolute best to gather as many projects as I could find, but I’m sure I’ve unintentionally missed a few along the way. If your artwork isn’t featured this time, please know I tried my best! I also apologise for the order – It was impossible to show all the artwork in order of artists names, but I did manage to caption with your names! Thank you for sharing your creativity with us and for making this challenge such a wonderful success.
Another note! Moving forward, please try to add your challenge artwork to the album on Clarity Worldwide. Here are some instructions:
How to add your artwork to the Facebook album
- At the top of the Facebook group, just below the header image, you’ll see options such as Featured, Files, and more.
- Scroll across until you find Albums, then tap or click it.
- Open the album called Barbara’s August Arty Challenge.
- At the top of the album, tap or click the + (Add Photos) button.
- Choose a photo of your artwork and upload it!
If you’re having any trouble, don’t worry – just pop a message in the group and someone will be happy to help. 😊 Hope that helps.
Now then… grab that cuppa, settle in, and enjoy this special August Challenge edition of the Saturday Share. There’s an awful lot of talent waiting for you below!
What an incredible collection of artwork!
Every time I thought I’d reached the end of the challenge posts, another beautiful project appeared! It’s been such a pleasure seeing the different ideas, colour combinations, techniques and personal touches you’ve all brought to Barbara’s August Challenge. It really is a reminder that no two crafters ever create exactly the same thing.
A huge thank you to everyone who’s taken the time to join in, share their work and encourage one another along the way. It’s that generosity and sense of community that makes these challenges so special.
Before I go, just a little reminder that Barbara is back! 😊 After taking some well-earned time to recover from her recent surgery, she’s back in the building and we’ll be welcoming her back for our Sunday Clarity TV Show tomorrow. We’d absolutely love for you to join us, so if you can, pop the kettle on, settle in, and come and spend a crafty hour with Barb, Paul and myself (in the chat!). I know she’ll be thrilled to see you all there. It’ll only be an hour, instead of the usual 2. We’ll see though 😉

What delightful little works of art! All simple but effective xx
Wonderful, mini masterpieces. Thank you to everyone for sharing your creativity.
It was lovely to see Barbara yesterday with the new stamps, they say laughter is the best medicine if you haven’t had surgery! The drip on the lolly!!!!😂
BUT Barbara please listen to Dave and your body, as despite the brave, painted on smile I think you should still be at home recuperating.
I was wondering how you would be able to choose from all the amazing August Challenge arwork posted this week. I had trouble making sure I hadn’t missed anyone with a ❤️ like. You’ve done an amazing job here, Grace, well done.
It was lovely to see you Mum back yesterday although she did go over her alloted (by Dave) I hour. As you say “we’ll see” if Sunday is for just 1 hour.
Take care.
Beautiful artwork!
Looking at what’s to come in the following week….. “Sewing Street”…..? Where do I find that to watch please?
What a wonderful mixture of beautiful artwork and no wonder you had difficulty. I agree that it was lovely seeing your Mum yesterday but I do hope she hasn’t taken on too much too soon. But that’s her and she knows her body. One day at a time !!!
See you tomorrow.
Take care.
Fab artwork, although I haven’t done any of the challenges I have been following and so inspired and I did something while watching Barb yesterday, it was a hoot! I think Barb was still under the influence of anaesetic or painkillers and it was a really cheerful hour plus – naughty as she went on further than the hour Dave had said! Loved hearing her laugh ! Have a good weekend x
