Hi peeps - hope you are all happy and well.
Just a short(ish) post today, firstly to apologise for not visiting my lovely friends and followers as often as I would have liked, over the past couple of weeks. I will get back to normal in a day or two (please forgive me)!
Thought it best to visit GP today and was prescribed antibiotics - apparently there is a secondary chest infection on top of the original flu bug. However, there's always a glittery lining to every cloud - I've shed half a stone in weight in the last couple of weeks!!
Anyway - enough of that - on to the second bit of my Post - the Tim Holtz class last Thursday - whoo-hoo!!
The class was fantastic (of course). Everyone created a hard backed journal book, full of pockets, tags, fab. Tim Holtz papers, products I had never used before such a Kraft Resist, Tissue Tape, Facets, plastic Alpha Parts, etc etc etc. The 4 hours were crammed with hints and tips and loads of techniques, and I would not have missed it for the world. The pages require some more detail adding, to finish them off, and I may store some inspirational crafting ideas in the Journal, as a book of reference for the future.

Tim is the most amazing guy, with a great sense of humour, and totally approachable. (He even signed my Journal - how cool is that) !!!

This one may amuse you (or maybe not)!!
I cropped this picture as I was grinning sooooo much (well, who can blame me) - I looked like a manic Cheshire Cat - very scary indeed!! (Does anyone remember the "WOT" cartoon character)??!!!
Have a wonderful week. See you all soon.

So glad to hear you had a great time Sylvia and lucky you too.
I love Tim too as I did one of his workshops at the NEC trade show a few years back and it was the best one I've ever done. He made all of us feel so relaxed that we all made more in his class than we'd than in any other one.
Hope you're fully recovered now and sorry to hear you've been unwell.

Hlope you are feeling better soon, Sylvia. Very very envious - you had every reason to be grinning like a Cheshire cat - who wouldn't? Maybe we should have a gallery of standing next to Tim smiles!!!
I was wondering today how your day with Mr Holtz had gone and then I see this post, weird or what? Sounds like you had a brilliant time and was well worth the cost!
