I'm spending my summer with Tim Holtz!

Did that get your attention?!  My husband and son are going to have to share me with another man this summer - Tim Holtz!

Today I started the "Tim Holtz Creative Chemistry 101" Online Card Class that's part of the Summer of Creative Chemistry Series that goes through the end of August.  Even though I've had the honor of taking an in-person class with Tim Holtz and used his products, I'm really looking forward to practicing the different techniques with all of the awesome products featured in the three classes I'll be taking on-line.

I hope sharing my summer school homework will inspire you to take time for yourself, enjoy your hobby, and be passionate about paper!


For our homework, we had tag assignments that featured the three following techniques (view the tags below from left to right):
  1. Blended Spritz & Flick (Distress Colors Used - Festive Berries, Fossilized Amber, Mowed Lawn, and Tumbled Glass)
  2. Brushless Watercolor (Distress Colors Used - Fired Brick, Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade, and Gathered Twig)
  3. Wrinkle-Free Distress (Distress Colors Used - Squeezed Lemonade, Salty Ocean, Abandoned Coral, and Fired Brick)
