Hi Everyone, another card that I made for my son who graduated from college.  The supplies I used: Black Cardstock, My Minds Eye Everyday Fun "Admit One" paper, My Minds Eye Everyday Fun "Streamers Paper"  I cut the tickets with a sizzix die, I cut the two clock faces with QuicKutz Clock die, I stamped the image with Tim Holtz Components Collection "Como 23 Optimist" stamp.  The Butterflies were also cut with a sizzix die and edged with Tim Holtz Black Soot distress ink.  I used glossy accents on the birds on the wire at the top of the stamp image and on the number 13 and distressed some cheesecloth with antique linen distress ink and put it behind my sentiment.  

Tim Holtz message to Me


Hi Everyone,
I just had to share this photo with you.  I Met Tim Holtz at the Scrapbook and Paper Expo in Brisbane Australia in June and a friend of mine (featured with him in this photo) was lucky enough to meet him at some classes near her home in Severn, Maryland and I asked her to tell him that he met me in Brisbane and that he talked to me and signed my craft apron for me - this was his response!  I just love it!!!!  This will have to be my next scrapbook page!  Thank you Tim for being so sweet.  You are my biggest inspiration!
