A Perfect Day ** I met Tim Holtz!!**

Yesterday I had the most fabulous day!!! Firstly, I got to meet for the very first time my good friend Kaz, and together we went to the opening of Dawn Bibby's new Design Studio, where we attended a 3 hour demo by the one and only Tim Holtz!!!!!!!!!


The day was all I anticipated and more!!! Tim was a fabulous teacher, very witty and charming, but most of all, inspiring. He showed us fabulous techniques and how to get the best results from his products. And we were able to purchase stamps from his as yet unreleased new range - how cools that!!


Dawn and her team , including JJ and Leonie were all there too, and they are all lovely people, very friendly and truly charming. The atmosphere in the Studio was very informal and relaxed, they really made us feel welcome. I must give give a huge Thank You to Dawn, JJ, Leonie and of course Tim Holtz, for the most wonderful afternoon. And Kaz was great company, it felt like I was meeting up with an old friend who I'd known forever. It really was a most perfect day.




Tim made lots of sample's during the demo, and at the end I asked him to sign this one for me, which he very kindly did.
This is a little creation I gave to Tim. I was so nervous approaching him with it I was literally shaking! I needed a lot of encouragment from Kaz to hand it to him, I was a bit pathetic lol. But Tim seemed to like it. Or maybe he was just very kind rofl.





The wording on the egg reads "Springtime., natures greatest gift".

awwwwww...that little nest is too adorable. I am sure that he liked it. And I am so jealous that you got to meet Kaz in real life. She is so funny online so I can imagine she was tons of fun in real life.
