Tim Holtz in the UK !



Just back from the Artsey Crafty event ! This was a two part event. You had a class with Tim and a class with Lin and Leandra. I was on the second session with Tim....So the day started with the ladies. Drove up with my friend with a little detour to Olney to visit LB Crafts... We met up with more friends on Wednesday evening and had a good laugh about "pokey tools".



This is the project we were making. Lots of chances to use their new metal paper and chalk paint. I did manage to finish mine in the time.

After a buffet lunch it was time to head into Tim's class.


We had a fantastic class. As part of the class kit we all recieved one of the limited edition vadabond stickers.

This is Tim's original for the class project. We started with configaration box which we were talked though how to cover in paper, seal the edges with tissue tape then distress the outside.

After a break for tea, we arrived back to our desks to find that small bags of goodness had arrived. LOTS of vintage goodies to build into the boxes.

...Yes, there was time to talk, ask for my journal to be signed and take a picture of two.

At the end of the class was a few door prizes from Tim ! I was not lucky enough to win one but my friend did.

Hello Zoƫ,

That's a special project you made with the people of Artsy crafts : I wish I could see some close-ups of this project.

How excited were you to have Tim LIVE in the class ?
The configuration box : that's something we know by now :)

I like the photo of you and Tim : something different then the big smiling lady with a smiling Tim....
