Hi Everyone, I had an amazing class with Tim Holtz on Monday...he is funny, charming, laid back, and a wonderful teacher. I have his book in stock (signed by him!) and wanted to let you know that 2 of his folders will be in by the end of the week or beginning of next week. They are the ones on the right, the blue one is called Damask/Regal and the Pink one is Checkerboard.

I am also bringing in the Copic markers ( I am a convert after taking the certification). Krista will be teaching 2 classes on the Copic. I should have the samples by the end of this week so check my Calendar on Saturday.
