Tim Holtz Videos

I ordered each one of these Journey videos so that I could view them myself before I brought them to you. WOW! I loved each video and I can;t even pick a favorite because each one is so good in its own right. I was so inspired after watching them and can't wait to view them again to pick certain projects. Either one or both of these videos can keep you busy with the great projects and wonderful and useful techniques. I found the techniques and projects ones I would personally do. They were presented in an organized manner, listing all the supplies and alternate supplies, in many cases, if the brands used weren't readily available. They also show some home decor items and many of the projects could be used to decorate your home or play room.

Tim Holtz Video - An Altered Journey~ This is the first video produced by Page Sage with Tim Holtz. It was awarded the Craftrends 2005 Award of Excellence. This video runs 127 minutes- over 2 hours! In this video, Tim demonstrates brushless watercolor, distressing with ink, alcohol ink agates, brayered embossing, faux batik, fragments from clay, faux soldering, domino diary and altered scrapbooking. Tim demonstrates step by step how easy it is to create great projects and artwork using ink and rubber stamps.

Tim Holtz Video - The Journey Continues~ This DVD is 152 minutes- over 2 1/2 hours of information packed fun. You should invite your buddies over for an "Afternoon with Tim". The projects included on this video are discovering distress, adventures in embossing, fireless raku (one of my favorites), alcohol ink exploration, glazed mosaics, custom correspondence, dichroic illusions (another personal favorite) and expressions on canvas - done with beeswax and very cool! The best thing about these videos is that I had the melting pot, alcohol inks, some distressing embossing powder and distress inks but I was not using them to their full potential. The investment of this video made those products much more useful to me than before. This video also has an interactive gallery and you can hop to a specific project in the video. Many of these projects can easily be incorporated into home decor items also.

Tim Holtz Distressables Papers & Frames CD~This CD contains all the Tim Holtz Distressable papers -60 of them, front and back- and 15 vintage frames. The Distressable papers have been discontinued but you can still have all the great papers anytime you want them on this cd to print over and over again.

The titles are vintage kitchen, crowns and wings, household, postcards, Americana, maps & stamps, entertainment, games, vintage money, keys & locks, vintage pins, sewing, vintage books, travel labels, cards & trucks, vintage clocks. I think that covers just about anything you would ever need. You can print them out over and over again on your computer.

Tim Holtz Distressables Alpha & Numbers CD~ This CD provides you with 9 numbers, 7 alphabets and 3 bonus kits which include bottle caps, vintage people photos and word brushes (looks like words you can cut apart).
