ArtsyCrafts and Tim Holtz

While the little one is power napping I thought I would get the chance to show some pictures of ArtsyCrafts event.... (She's up and I've collected Dillon from bus stop... it's grown into a pretty long post, just sayin')

 
WOW!!! I was there tee hee...

So, the morning began with a fabulous workshop directed by Leandra Franich the Owner of PaperArtsy Rubber stamps and the talented Lin...  Their Fabulous helpers are quite familiar too... tee hee like the fun Linda E, Essex Lynne (aka Cheryl {Cole}), Karen and Jo... to name a few. It was so well organised and everything perfect I am so pleased to have been part of it.


I bumped into the lovely and we crafted the day together.


Our first project is this technique filled house piece, it was great fun...


A little close up, from this point I stained my hands a beautiful green for the rest of the day ROFL!

NOW..... here he is...

I KNOW!!!! That is me... (sporting a fabulous Craft Stamper Apron)... beside the Tim Holtz!

OMG! I believe this is when my brain and and mouth have communication problems.. LOL! I think I was getting pretty tired by this time too, a workshop lightweight :) I don't know how they all managed to teach 288 students!


Anyway, this will be my work in progress for a while, don't have the opportunity to finish it just yet, but will enjoy the extended fun of finding treasures to fill it and keep the memory going :)


My favourite things has to be making our grunge letter blocks seriously I made five before our tea break LOL! I think you may see a whole lot more of these.... Above is the word art with THE most adorable pink toy car from my bag full of vintage treasures and of course we received a ranger bag of products to take home, yum!


And this box says time to be free and fly...(well that's the idea) it holds an authentic letter block too, ha ha! My sincere thanks to Leandra, Lin and crew and Tim, Mario and Alain for this amazing creative journey!

Thanks for stopping by,
Hope you have a wonderfully creative day, BiG HuGs Kim ♥
