A Tim Holtz Weekend

The Great American Scrapbook Convention was last weekend. I was so excited to go because Tim Holtz was going to be in the Stampers Anonymous booth. I went on Thursday but didn't bring my camera so Brenda and  I went back on Saturday with camera in tow. Of course I had to get another picture with Tim and then some pictures of him hard at work creating. The picture with him digging in a small suitcase is his new container that holds his Ideaology that will be coming out in Jan. Pretty cool huh! The last photo is a tag he made while demonstrating and I asked for it. Oh, and he signed the back for me. I have two creations by Tim now.  I love the real shadows from the sun on the picture. I think it adds to the eery feeling of the art. Tim is so gracious and obviously loves what he does. I could watch him all day and on Thursday I did and loved every minute of it. It was great to see him. He talked about his 2011 cruise to Alaska. I came home and told Gary it would be the trip of a lifetime for me and he said, "what would I do?"
I told him he only does classes while at sea and the rest of the time, we do what we want while on land.  Alaska would be the only cruise I would want to go on and what could be better if Tim Holtz was on the same boat teaching classes. I heart Tim Holtz. Keep your fingers crossed Gary will want to cruise to Alaska.
