A wonderful time was had by all, and 4 hours just flew by.
At the end, we got goodies to rake away with us- the two stencils we used were made especially for the workshop, so won't ever be available to buy.
Top left is an Apron, and bottom left is a bag for 'putting your thoughts and ideas into'. Those things we jot down on a bit of paper, then promptly forget what we did with them.
All those came in this bag with the Creative Chemistry Live UK Edition on, and our lanyards.
Next came a folder, with refill inserts, to store all our tags from the lessons in. Plus the specially printed badge for the front.
The folder itself, & inserts are available to buy, and a great way of storing tag samples.
A notebook, to write thoughts and ideas in.
Again, this is available to buy as part of the regular Idea-ology range.
Final gift was a piece of 'Good Luck' jewellery from the Assemblage line.
Finally, I took my Compendium of Curiosities, and Distressables books with me, just in case I could get them signed. And sign them he did, quite happily.
Everything was so well organised, and both Tim & Mario took time with people, making them feel they were an important part of the day, it was a wonderful atmosphere.
I'll do another post later in the week on all the tags, and I'll bring them to the crop with me.
Even taking time for a silly photo!
I'm feeling much better this week than I did last, by Saturday, the worst of the side effects were easing off, which I was pleased about. Didn't expect them to shift quite so fast.I am still tired, but I think Sunday was such a long day, so accounts for some of that, and I have a really painful butt, as I sipped over in the bathroom on Saturday afternoon, and landed firmly on my rear, so it feels bruised.
Anyhow, I'm done, bed is calling. I'll be round during the day today. Hugs to everyone.

Oh you've made me reminisce meeting Timmy back in 2013. You do get loads of stuff to take away but those stencils are AMAZING. Yes he signs anything so I got him to sign the apron they gave us and Mario too. What an amazing adventure. BJ#3

Love that final photo! My you did get a lot of goodies - and a good time too. I have one of those tag books as I did a workshop at CHA long ago with Marje Kemper (for Ranger) and it is good to know I can buy the slip covers - been wanting some for a long time. Must get to know where from from you.
See you Saturday, sorry about the bruised bum.

Oh so pleased for you, a day with TH was just what the doctor ordered! looking forward to seeing the tags. Will bring an extra cushion if you need me too, or we can save a table and you can lie on it, face down.....!

Brilliant Shaz - hanging out with celebrities! What an adventure! I've looked into AFTH workshops but they're so far away! You must be a happy bunny - the limited edition stencils are icing on the cake! They look awesome. Love Tim's handwriting - it's very flamboyant! Have a lovely week! zsuzsa #13!
Shaz, it looks amazing! how lucky you are. I love all the Tim Holtz products but I'm never really sure where to start, I'm a bit hopeless - some crafter me!!! Lyns #18 xx
I'm green with envy, I bet Tim is great fun!!
Can't wait to see what you produce as a result!
Love

PS maybe start wearing a bustle just in case you fall again?
It looks like it was great fun with TH I love everything the man does... such a creative mind... and the bonus was you felt well enough on the day to enjoy it... I'm so glad about that... sorry about your butt but hopefully the pain would have gone before the crop.... Have a happy week ahead... May #19
Glad to hear you are feeling better this week, Shaz. Meeting up with the lovely Tim Holtz must have cheered you immensely - the man seems to be a natural charmer, as does Mario, and the workshop looks like fun too. Love all the goodies you were given whilst there. The bag for putting your thoughts and ideas in should prove to be very useful. Looking forward to meeting you at the weekend. Hugs, Elizabeth x #21

Nothing better for the crafting soul than a day full of creativity, so glad you recovered enough to fully enjoy your course, NOW REST please!
Looks like a fab event Shaz. Glad you are feeling a bit better - if a little bruised!! Take care. xx Jo
Glad you managed last weekend and didn't feel too tired. And another weekend outing this weekend, please don't overdo it. Signed you petition I agree my husband was only 53. Anickoana
So glad that you had an amazing time at the workshop, that's bound to help you heal better x
Oh you lucky lady! Wish I could have been there.
My friend, Sue Tossell was there and sounds like you both enjoyed it equally. She too has only good words to describe her time there.
