Tim Holtz Paddles For The Crafty Scrapper

Happy September everyone! Time is sure flying by this year. Anyway, I was fortunate enough to be able to attend the Tim Holtz event at The Crafty Scrapper in July, and Carolyn, the owner, asked me to help her and her manager, Gena, to make some numbered paddles for customers to shop while attending classes. I made 16 of the 43, and used techniques from Tim's Compendium of Curiosities series. Here they are. Also, if you would like to see the others that Gena and Carolyn made, click on over to The Crafty Scrapper. Thanks, and I hope you enjoy!
Thanks so much for looking, and for those of you who attended the classes, and gave me compliments on the paddles, MWAH to you!

I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!

Upcoming Autumn and Christmas Classes!

Hello crafters! Before I get to it, I would just like to thank everyone who looked, commented here or my FB page, and viewed my last post and video...my cup runneth over. WOW...Truly thank you! Okay...Today, I have photos of the new classes I'll be teaching for the upcoming holidays. I am also teaching some older classes as well. I will be in the Houston area, at The Croppin Bug in La Marque, and Dallas area, at The Crafty Scrapper in Waxahachie. Check my calendar for specific dates and projects if you are interested. These will be my last public classes of the year. Thanks so very much for looking.  
An Autumn Trio of Distress Crayon Tags
 We will play with lots of techniques using Ranger Tim Holtz Distress Crayons, and Tim Sizzix dies and Idea-ology, as well as some Wendy Vecchi goodies.

Ranger Mediums Technique Class
We will play with almost every Ranger wet medium, and create 12 tags to reference for future use, filled with techniques. 

Oh Snow Good Christmas Hanging
There will be lots of playing with Tim's Found Relatives and ephemera to make this snowy hanging, and we will learn a few techniques along the way.  Students will have their choice of seven images and ephemera.

Do You Want To Paint A Snowman? Mixed Media Canvas
This class will be super fun, as we play with all of Dina Wakley's Media from Ranger, and some Tim goodies too, to make this huge 16x20 inch 3D canvas. There will be lots of customization as well.

If you can join me in any of these or the older classes, I promise a day of learning and fun. Thanks again for looking!

I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!
