Good Monday, everyone! I'm back from CHA, all fired up and SO excited to have spent a few days in the company of a whole bunch of brilliant craft artists-- chief among them, Mr. Holtz himself. Tim has so many amazing new Ranger (the Distress Markers are GENIUS!), Sizzix, Core'dinations, Stampers Anonymous and Idea-ology products hitting the market, including the fabulous and much-anticipated Compendium of Curiosities, Volume 2. We've got a lot to look forward to, guys!
Meanwhile, I realized we'd never done an ATC challenge here, and that's just not right! So, grab yourself a 2.5 x 3.5" piece of card stock, your favorite Tim Holtz products, and let's got rockin'!
Challenge 35: A Holtzian ATC
(Product list is at the end of this post!)
- Create an ATC using at least one Tim Holtz product and/or technique.
- Post a photo of your creation on your blog or at an online, public photo-hosting site like Flickr or Photobucket. You can enter anytime before Sunday, February 12 at 8pm MST.
- Be sure to include a link to the post to Tim's website (www.timholtz.com)
- Finally, please include a link to this Studio L3 challenge post
- Link your art below using the handy InLinks button
- Know you're a rockstar!
New things are happening over at the All Things Tim group at Yahoo, and Stephen, Laurel and Deb want you all to know that they're still offering a photo album for your fabulous Grungy Monday creations! Head on over and say "hello!" to this dynamic group of Tim fans!

Cool!!! An ATC will be fun! Thanks for changing it up a bit!
Well I have never made an ATC, so this is like a Grungy Monday Double Duty challenge for me! Love your ATC, GF!
Welcome back and CHA sure looked a whole heap of Fun with a capital F!! Hope to get time to make an ATC this week - I mean, how hard can it be, a little bitty ATC!!!
Oooh, I love your ATC - it's awesome, Linda! Glad you're back and had a blast at CHA. Can't wait to get started!
Welcome back!! I loved reading your tweets! Your comments cracked me up (and took me back to my high school days-doh!) I've never made an atc. I've always thought tags were kind of small and am amazed at all that can be done to them! Well, like Tim says 'it's all perspective'!
Oh Linda! I love your Atc! I love the theme, one of my favorites, and I like the tiny details like the heart pin and the hand died ribbon. Beautiful!
Yey!!!! I've been wanting to create ATCs for a while and this is my incentive! Thanks!
Awesome ATC! I may actually have time for this one!
