Hi there.
I’ve been having more playtime this morning, with those new landscape masks and stamps. So excited about them! The scenery masks are a game changer. I actually wish Sunday would come round faster, so I can show you!! But then again, there’s so much to do at work, I really ought not to wish the week away!
Tomorrow, we are back on the SHAC-bus at 10am. Last session on the L for LOVE. The bus driver went ahead a little, so she knows where we’re headed tomorrow. Then, if I am needed, I will go and help with picking and packing those sale orders from last week. The Clarity team is powering through them, but they take as long as they take. As you know, our sales offers are pretty unique; if we run out of something and we can do it, we make more to honour the order. But you will appreciate that this takes time.
On Thursday Evening, I am hosting a Mixed Media Craftalong at 7pm on Facebook. Remember these stencils? Seems like ages ago when I showcased these on Telly.
Grrr. Just got swept up in a wave of anger again. These products mark the point at which we stopped being paid by Create & Craft. All that Birthday weekend! All those hours! All those Groovi plates! All that work!!! Can you imagine??? Ah well. No point in dwelling on it. What doesn’t kill you will make you stronger. Were we gullible? No, not gullible. This kind of thing happens all too often. But I can tell you this: it will not happen to us again.
Anyway, where was I ? Ah yes. This Thursday, as promised, we are having a FREE Craftalong at 7pm. Here‘s the ingredients list.
If you go to our website, you will see on the homepage, the front page that is, a section called A Moment of Clarity. See it in the centre here? Click that button, and it will take you through to the Date, time, ingredients etc etc. This is where we load anything like this, so you can always find it. This is also where we add our Online Courses, like The Lighthouse etc. Watch this space for the NEW Viaduct Online course, coming soon. x
So that’s Thursday evening. Then on Sunday, from 3-5pm, it’s Clarity Social TV Showtime! And that’s when I shall show you those wonderful new stamps and masks, which I am teasing you with! Honestly. So so lovely. 
Also, have I mentioned the brand new Layering TREE stencils? They are superb too. Let me find you the art work I did for the packaging covers…
In fact, let me find you the Packaging! See how they work? So cool too.
Yes. That’s it. We just need to overcome this rather substantial financial setback, work our way through it. But by George! I think we can do it! Hahaha.
When I look at the beautiful designs that Jazz and I are coming up with, when I see how Jim leaps into action on the website and with the on-screen TV graphics, when I see how Sue and Jilly jump to it, and make things happen, then I really do think we can do this. I would like to think we can do this independently, too. When I spoke to my Mum yesterday, she said, “Be your own boss again, Barbara.“ Wouldn’t that be cool! I’ll never say never, and I will do whatever I have to, to keep Clarity going. But that’s a very appealing thought.
There is already a marvellous, kind, loyal, very strong community around Clarity. We just need to reach out to more people, cast our net a little further. I’m not going for world domination! I just want us to do something good, something creative, something wholesome. Which helps people, which improves peoples’ lives. Maybe you can help there, and recommend us to fellow crafters, to other groups?
Onwards and upwards. With vigour eh!
Have a great Sunday! And don’t forget. if you missed the Clarity Social TV shows on Friday, they are stored on our website, together with our new “what we made-what we used Project downloads. Here’s how to find it….
- Go to the Homepage. See the teal CLARITY TV top righthand corner? Click through
2. This will bring you to this page. See where it says CATCH UP & CRAFT – CLICK HERE ? Well, click there!
3. This will take you through to the actual TV shows, which are all nicely stored here for you to catch up or rewatch. The latest one will always be at the top. But the cool bit is also the new Demo download sheets. See them? Demo 1, Demo 2 etc. Click any one of them…
4. …and you will find a neat picture of the finished demo, plus an ingredients list. So you can watch the video, and you will know what was used.
I think these will be invaluable. You can use them for reference. Print them off, fill a folder. It’s all there for you to refer back. And the 5-digit numbers next to the ingredients are our product codes. So if you want to buy them, that’s all you need.
By George! What a splendid idea Barbara! 
See you in the SHAC
Love always
