Hi everyone, Paul here standing in for Barb.
Barb and Dave will be attending the celebration of our dear friend Pat Hosking tomorrow at midday. Pat was such a wonderful lady, an amazing parcher and was known all over the world. If you want to join in with the celebration, why not wear something bright and light a candle at 12 midday xxx
As I was staying overin Peterborough, I thought I would take a trip into Cambridge, I always drive by the signs backwards and forwards to the TV, but never visited. So after catching up on emails and sorting out paperwork for tomorrows shows I decided to head off. I checked out the best way – Park & Ride, put the postcode into the Sat Nav and headed south towards Cambridge. All was going well as I approached Cambridge, saw the signs for the Park & Ride but the Sat Nav said I had further to travel. Decided to stick with the Sat Nav as I thought it was taking me closer to Cambridge. How wrong was I!!!!! I ended up in the middle of a housing estate in Newmarket!!!! When I checked the postcode, instead of putting CB3 into the Sat Nav, I put CB8! No worries, I put the correct postcode into the Sat Nav and set off again. 20 minutes later, stuck in traffic for half an hour. Someone, somewhere was telling me I was not meant to visit Cambridge so I headed back to my hotel.
Anyway, I am just back from the TV studios setting up for a couple more shows on Create & Craft tomorrow at 7am & 11am.
As we celebrate the Year of the Alphabet at Clarity, I thought I would shine a light on our amazing Celtic inspired Illuminated Alphabet and Numbers
Large Illuminated Alphabet & Numbers


Small Illuminated Alphabet & Numbers


Corners & Elements


Linda Williams’s Celtic Layering Frames Collection

Here is some inspiration from the design team






















So I hope you can join me bright and early and don’t forget that Deborah Wheeler will also be on at 1pm & 4pm tomorrow with some new stamps from Linda Williams which I will blog about tomorrow morning in between the shows.
I think an early night is on the cards!
Happy crafting
Paul xx
