Good afternoon, I should just apologise for my absense for the last few days, I have been busy with some magazine work etc and I spent the weekend at the Harrogate show with Barbara and the Clarity team. It was a great weekend apart from the dental drama! For those who dont know about it, I started with toothache at dinner on Friday evening and it just got worse and worse, after trying unsuccessfully to find an emergency dentist our friend Heather took me to A&E on Saturday night, I have a nasty absess but the doctor was great, I have some mega strong anti-biotics and painkillers which picked me back up again so I was ok to get through the weekend, I would have been really upset if I had needed to go home and let the team down!
So, onto this week,another busy one at the Simms household-which is always good news! First on the list is a little jig around in the workshop diary so that I am able to go to Ally Pally in a couple of weeks, Im a tad excited because I will be playing with some lovely goodies on the Claritystand- Barbara will be demo'ing too so dont worry!
Speaking of playing with fun goodies, thats what some of my lovely
Claritystampers NW ladies have been doing to produce their homework.
You remember last month? I asked you all to vote for your fave so I can decide who wins a Clarity stamp, so could you do the same again pleeease!
The homework rules are
3"x3" topper

Number 3
Number 4

Number 7Some lovely work I think you will agree!
Thanks so much in advance for voting and leaving lovely comments, the ladies really enjoyed reading your comments last month.
number 2
ReplyDeleteAll beautiful as always but my vote is for no. 2. X
ReplyDeleteOh hell this is so difficult!! They are all beauties! But for me I think it has to be the classic simplicity/elegance of no 1 x x
ReplyDeleteNo 1 for me very close call..
ReplyDeleteHi I think No5 is the nice one I would pick xx
ReplyDeleteRegards Carol
Beautiful work by all the ladies again but my vote goes to number 1. Well done everyone.
ReplyDeleteMy choice would be no 6. The shiny surface seems to me to reflect best the idea of high fashion, and has an expensive look. The others are all excellent and it was a close run coice for me. xx Maggie
ReplyDeleteVery heard to pick but I think number 6 is the one for me

No 6 for me, unusual use of color. Bur it was hard all great works of art.

They are all wonderful! I especially like 2 and 4! Had to look really closely to check the quality and 4 wins for me as the embossing at the bottom of 2 isn't great - it looks like it's not raised properly - am so envious of these ladies - would love to be in one of your classes Maria! hugs Karen x
