My Visit with Tim Holtz!!!

posted on: 11.13.2010


Hello Bloggers,


As most of you know i went to see Tim Holtz today at the Carson Stamp Convention. OMG it was amazing! He did some amazing tags there and i was lucky enough to get one and have it signed by him. Please view his tags he made HERE also he is giving them away so don't forget to leave a comment. Anyways it was so cool because i watched Tim for about 1.5 hours on his distress inks and i really enjoyed it then we got to sit up front and close for the Alchohol Ink Session which i really wanted to see because I've only used them like 4 times LOL. So we finished watching that and i shopped around at his booth. I bought 1 super big script stamp. OMG its heavy lol. I also bought some tonic scissors, configuration box, box feet, and some Lost and Found paper. So we went to pay and i met the owner of Stampers Anonymous. His name is Ted and hes really cool. We talked for like 30 mins and then i looked some more and paid for my new items :). Then as i was checking out i met Mario which is Tim's Manager. The only reason i met him was because Ted walked over and said, "This is the new Tim Holtz" that was really cool. Again we talked. It was a very fun day. So i came home and made some tags which you can see in the slideshow below. The tag photo that is by itself right above the my tags slideshow is the tag Tim made and signed for me. I LUV THIS TAG. It was the first tag he made for the day and i think it was the first time he demoed the Perfect Pearl Mist. The tag is amazing.

*****Guess what!!! Im giving 1 of my tags away. Please leave a comment below telling me which tag you liked and if you win i will send you a signed tag by me. LOL it probably sounds funny but i have had alot of people asking me to make them a signed tag and here is the chance. Thanks so much everyone and also enter for a chance to win The Gingerbread Cricut Cartridge. just click HERE*****
Above is the tag from Tim. I took the pic in a bag so it kinda distorted the edges.
