What a fabulous Day

Good evening all , thanks for joining me this Monday evening...

I hope you had a good weekend, as you know it was our Clarity Open Day in Leyburn, North Yorkshire on Saturday...

So Friday morning I set off on my journey and actually managed to get there in 3hours, which was very good for Friday traffic...it was great catching up with Barbara, Dave, Paul and the rest of the team . We spent the day getting the room ready, and what a gorgeous room it was...A stunning venue...

Here is the team....

I was so thrilled to be demonstrating the new Artistry ink pads and this new stencil....

I was so pleased when I saw it in crafters baskets...because it is my design,,,and I must admit , I was very nervous incase nobody liked it...

By ten past nine in the morning , the room was buzzing, oh what an atmosphere

What a great way to spend a day

I did take a couple of photos , just so that I wasn't on them...

Thanks to all the wonderful crafters who I met, and who watched me play....

And for all your lovely comments.,.you really made my day....

And yes, we had lots of laughter too....

Here is one of my samples,

I started with a piece of Stencil card, and I covered it in some artistry ink using a blending tool

Then I did some ghosting,,,

I placed the stencil on, spritzed some water, took the stencil away , waited a minute and then blotted it with kitchen paper...

I do love this technique, it is so quick and easy,,,.and so effective...

Once everyone had gone , we packed everything into the van, said our goodbyes and then it was time to head home...

I walked in the front door at 9-45pm...

A long , but wonderful day...

If you haven't managed to get to one of the open days, do look out for them next year...they are well worth a visit,,,

I had better go, time to eat some food...

Thanks for your company

Much love and hugs
