2023 Tim Holtz Holiday Hoopla (Part 2)

[@clararodriguez5639]

I hope you know that all the time invested in your presentations is very much appreciated. To me, even more than all the wonderful ideas you shared, I’m thankful for all of the advice you gave us… just relax, have fun, and let things happen. Your encouraging words really meant the world to me. 🤗❤️

[@pennylp56]

I LOVE the way the trees with the spray turned out!!! They actually look more like real trees, cuz trees aren't shaped exactly the same. Really love it!!! It's Not a fail, it's a masterpiece ❤

[@judyhayes9248]

Watching Carol was a game changer for creative journey!

[@clararodriguez5639]

“You get what you get and you don’t throw a fit.” - TH I LoVe this! Thank you for reminding us that crafting should be something we should enjoy and not stress about. So many times we’re trying to do things “right” or perfectly that we lose out on the joy of the whole process. “Don’t freak your freak!” - TH I’m having so much fun watching Hoopla Part 2. Whoop whoop 🙌

[@patriciacyzauskas4067]

Was watching this video looking for inspirations. I’ve been buying your complete collections each time for past couple yrs but stamping 24yrs now, die cutting only 7 yrs. My mind is not as creative as yours so often need reminders of mixing old with new items. You have taught me to say oh I have something similar by another brand so I go searching thru my stash. Initially made 8-10 cards each holiday but now am up to 38-40. So from beginning, I’ve always did step by step (stamped all in one setting, watercolored, cut all papers, assembled, etc.). I still function in assembly line fashion. Please keep mixing old dies with new so those with limited budgets can bring life to old supplies. I’ve been teaching 2 friends all about card making & home decor. Got them addicted by letting them use my inks, sprays, Spritz, sandable paper, etc. One friend tried my SideKick one day and fell in love so bought her own. The other sees no need but I bought her one I’m delivering to her in Prescott next month. I send them links for all your live shows. I travel a lot and use travel glass mat so they have purchased the big ones. I often buy the new items n let them play with my stuff and then they buy their own. This is how the industry will continue. Thx Tim for all the education!! You help make my world a happy place more than you could ever imagine!!! I make friends & family happy with all the snail mail I send. In past I’ve taken classes with Dina and Dyan in Portland yrs ago but would also love to meet you in person someday. It’s definitely on my bucket list!!

[@cravinsomepepsipepsi1792]

Less than 24 hours after the hooplas and the cut-n-dry is sold out everywhere 😢-sadness! Wish you were given a heads up before these decisions were finalized so you could put out a little demo on what these products are and the cool ways to use them and maybe save some of these gems. With physical stores quickly disappearing and the big box places carrying fewer and fewer paper craft supplies, unless we see a product demonstrated somewhere we don’t know to go looking for it. Just one of the many wonders of these Lives. Thank you so much for all of the effort that goes into these! So much inspiration, so many great tips and tricks, so much FUN! ❤

[@kraftymomma1979]

Perfectly explained the situation. Hobby Lobby dropped a lot of papercrafting products to devote an entire aisle to resin crafts. Michaels has done something similar.

[@pansygirltaylor9267]

Yeah I had no idea this even existed! Soooo sad to see this demo-ed and not be able to try it. I’ve searched all over for similar product but have only found dry pads in a container. Guess that’s still doable sorta.

[@marjbiehler7628]

Making your own stamp pad blew my mind!

[@inkyfingeredcat]

My word … I’ve had a thoroughly enjoyable few hours being inspired Tim … plus I just love the respect you and Mario show each other … superb hoopla!

[@bettinakelson5441]

Darn it Tim Holtz.... all your creative ideas made me cave in and place a massive order. lol Thanks for sharing all your knowledge and ideas. Love all your creations.

[@valbrenneman9071]

As we say in quilting..."Finished is better than perfect."

[@barbluecht3500]

The first time I saw you was on Carol Duvall Show… thanks for the memories and sharing your talents

[@lisabates7390]

I've never actually sat down and watched any of your videos in full! This is so cool!

[@thominaaugustinsson2685]

Amazing!!!!!❤❤❤Tanks Tim and Mario!!!!🙏👏👏👏👏😅love love this!!

[@Taitcreates639]

I lovedCarol Duval, watched her all the time when I lived in the mountains in Colorado, around 1987 to 1999. She was the best, but now we have you and you are the best of the best. I loved this Hoopla more than you know. Bless you both always. PS, plz send me a sample of the stamp you made with the Cut and Dry Felt Pad that you created. That would be way cool.🙏🙏

[@CraftyToad70]

The blurry mica stain trees are so ethereal. Like viewing a forest through heavy fog. You just proofed there are no failures, only opportunities to explore techniques.

[@CraftyToad70]

And you proved it, too! 😁

[@janicestevens8469]

I actually loved the blurry pine tree background! Thanks for being fearless because the outcome was great!

[@Heatherban300]

CUSTOM STAMP PAD!!!! Wowee!!!! What a great idea...thank you, thank you!! 💕 🥰

[@kikibalden7462]

Thank you to both of you for the wonderful live! Tim your heart is so big, your talks full of excitement and happiness are so inspiring, your Tim talks really sink in, your relationship with Mario is a joy to witness, and your friends are so very lucky to have you in their lives❤❤❤

[@lisabates7390]

Those Christmas cards are beautiful!!

[@angelathomas4391]

My mind only works with chaos. LOL. The Chaos around me makes me feel safe in my craft space.

[@pamhatch160]

Tim , I love the blurred trees. I would cut that to tag size, add a tea stained doily die cut on top to start layering. hand cut a paper tree and spray mica for the tree. Throw on your glitter, l would a add rag bow in cream and pine green. It would be the gift tag to a parchment paper and twine gift wrapped package . Unique , artistic and beautiful. As always your popcorn brain creates beautiful things lending to freedom in personal expression! Thank you

[@mickansj334]

☃☃☃I wish you all a very MERRY CHRISTMAS.☃☃☃

[@deannamcdonald4442]

Wonderful video guys!

[@karendaley3184]

Awesome love hoopla! Will come back to this for inspo again and again.

[@artemisceleste]

What a delight to wake up Saturday morning to a Holiday Hoopla. Love the reimagining of the seasonal Thinlits. So my fabulous suggestions. Thanks for the gift of your talent and your time.

[@artemisceleste]

And Mario, thanks for being the conductor behind the curtain.

[@susannerytter3487]

Thank you for a wonderful inspiration ❤ so many great ideas to make ❤ Take care Tim ❤

[@teresamcdaniel3554]

I loved Carol Duvall too. Her show was often the highlight of my day. I hadn’t realized that she had passed away in spite of occasionally Googling her. Love your emotion about her, I get it. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@kimm2274]

Wow! I’m inspired. Thank you both!

[@tamarawerderber6743]

SUPER WONDERFUL.............................

[@hayleythoresson2138]

Thank you for taking time to share your ideas with us. I am sorry that the Ranger Cut n dry is being discontinued. As a fairly new crafter I have only learnt about it through your tutorial.

[@odrade99]

Thanks for the inspiration . Have a great holiday season. 🎄🎅

[@lisabates7390]

I have learned a lot from you today on replay

[@rosemarylako2285]

Oh my goodness, my brain hurts! I just love, love, love how you encourage us to use our dies and stamps in so many creative ways. Thank you for so much inspiration. I love spending time with you and Mario.

[@barbborja1910]

I started my crafty journey when I was pregnant with my first child. That child turns 26 next week. I never knew what that cut and dry felt was for. Tim, thanks for teaching this old dog a new trick!

[@angelathomas4391]

Me either!!!! Love these I always learn a new way to create

[@sherrydee]

Loved the blurry shifter trees. Spraying water afterwards really pulled that together!

[@jeankessler8568]

Love the tree slide backround... the added water really did it!

[@chrisgibson8409]

As always...... I love watching your videos!!! No matter whether they are to introduce a new product or a Hoopla!!!! So many ideas and inspiration!!! Thank you so much for the wonderful ideas you come up with and try!!! Love....love...love!!!

[@kristenstecker1496]

Thank you very much for another awesome video with so much inspiration!!!

[@PattiePattie489]

WoW I love this custom stamp idea...love the Hoopla ..Thankyou Tim & Mario...love your sense of fun ❤❤😅😅🎉

[@debbieanderson550]

This was fun to watch, but I am so bummed that the cut ‘n dry foam is sold out everywhere. I have one package, but wanted more. I remember watching Carol Duvall and did not know she had passed this year 97! Those shows so inspired me, like your lives. Thanks!

[@patriciaharmon2096]

I've been watching your presentation for about 2 wks. I expecial like your Holiday Hoopla. Thanks so much. I appreciate you.

[@brooklynmidnightcrafter]

I look forward to Hoopla 2024. How did you know I went shopping? lol. TY so much for your encouraging words & technique tips. TY Mario!

[@gheester60]

I loved Carol Duvall and the show she was on. I remember seeing you demo the Cut and Dry Felt. You made a Snowman and she loved it. I miss Carol and all the craft shows back then. Thank you for The Hoopla’s. So informative.

[@debrafazzi5382]

JUST FABULOUS!!!!! You and Mario are so cute a excited with everything you do. Thanks for the inspiration 🤩🤩🤩🤩🎉🎉🎉🎉🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@darlae3438]

Such a wonderful Hoopla!!! Awesome memories of Carol Duvall! Loved her! Thank you!

[@LindaCrowder10021950]

Great show.

[@judyhayes9248]

I can relate to what you say about creativity being a curse at times. 🤗

[@KANMyrtz]

Just watched both parts! Thank you again for a fun presentation!

[@happiness1988]

54:28 Ohhhhh, this car with moon in the box!! Ohhhh, so sweeeet!! I can't stop: ohhhh, oh, ohhhh 🤗😍

[@trudievick2359]

Love how your creative genius works. Wonderful video. Thank you for sharing.

[@lindas.9313]

I loved watching Carol Duvall and I still have a little Cut N Dry in my crafty stash. It's been years since I've used the stamping felt but I used it one year to make all my Thanksgiving cards. Thanks for sharing the memories. I really enjoy watching your videos.

[@deedeebryans6334]

Oh my gosh! Wonderful comments! I couldn’t agree more! Thank you so much for all these videos and your words! 😊

[@kathybailey9711]

Thanks for mentioning Carol Duvall! As a stay at home mom, I really looked forward to the craft shows that were on in the early 2000’s. Didn’t know she had passed at 97! I still remember a lot of the projects she would show.

[@marlatrindade4824]

I've watched your videos religiously for 4 years, and this one still absolutely blew my mind. I absolutely loved the mish mash, thank you for the ideas ❤

[@lpayne91]

Hello from Scotland 👋, Fabulous hoopla, love all your ideas and always 👍🏼 when I view your videos and hope your numbers go up for this part 2 …need to start getting.some Christmas crafting done and enjoyed the inspiration you provided 🥰 thank you!

[@beateschroder5729]

It's hard for me to find the right words: Thank you, Tim and Mario, for this fantastic holiday hoopla. I'm more inspired than I have been in a long time. Normally I always mix all the media from the Tim Holtz products, but these ideas really fascinated me. I especially think the idea with the Toyland colorize dies is perfect. Thank you again for everything and I'm really looking forward to the next video... Great job 👍☺️😍💖 

[@reneecassidy7279]

Wonderful ideas, Tim! The candy really caught my eye as I have that die and thought it was so much fun to make, so this is a great idea! I had forgotten about Carol Duval, used to watch her and enjoyed her. Sorry you have lost a dear friend. They are precious to us.Thanks to you and Mario for these Hooplas!

[@reginaperkins8255]

My mother in-law first introduced me to the Carol DeVall show and of course you and all the wonderful guest she had. I never knew there was such a craft program. Happy memories, thank you for remembering her in your Hoopla.

[@anniegotakindlee]

Thank you so much Tim and Mario!

[@cloverrabbit5622]

Fabulous video! I always have fun watching you create...thanks a bunch!

[@julieharden158]

Thank you so much for sharing your amazing gift of creativity. Your demonstrations are inspiring and your explanations are easy to follow. I can only imagine how long to takes to set up for these creative videos but your time and effort is so appreciated. You always make me laugh and smile too. Love and blessings xx

[@vava_s_touch]

Waw, j'ai regardé en replay et c'était fantastique. J'adore les boîtes de chocolats 😊 c'est extra. Et extraordinaire aussi l'idée du tamponnage multi couleurs, fallait l'inventer ! Je suis bluffée. Merci Tim pour toutes ces inspirations, tout ce temps que tu nous donnes toi et aussi Mario. Vous êtes géniaux les garçons 🤗 bisous de la France 😉💋

[@ambercorbett9585]

Man, I really love you guys!

[@nicolalederer9517]

Having grown up with German television, I don‘t know Carol - but it is clear that she meant a lot to you, not just for giving you a break, so I am very sorry for your loss and I hope you will take strength from the happy memories! Remembering her like you shared with us today is a wonderful testament to her! Kind regards from Germany, Nicola

[@kathybobnar687]

Thank you ! Love your videos!!

[@BeKindBePositive]

Always love your enthusiasm and of course your talent too! Thanks for sharing!!!!!

[@swittek723]

I first started stamping because of Carol Duval. I was so glad you mentioned her. That was where I first saw you. You are a true treasure. Thanks for all your inspiration... outstanding. Happy holidays.

[@debclark1069]

I love watching your videos. You inspire me with creativity!!!

[@annemariebeukes2983]

You guys are my all time favorite. Will always give you two thumbs up if they had that!!! Love it!!! 😍

[@tracyrenner9490]

Always blown away by your demo’s and creative ideas! I’m on the hunt for felt stamping foam genius!

[@SherryTewhill]

Well, I'm back and just finished the second half of Holiday Hoopla. I really an inspired and just need to get going. Thanks for all of the great ideas and positivity.

[@beyondtherabbithole]

Thank you. I love all of your lives but especially these inspirational creative making ones. I will probably watch them several times as it's like crafting with a friend. Thank you for sharing your time with us.

[@loribeck7496]

I finally had time to watch this.... And now I want to go shopping! You share the best ideas and I really appreciate you and Mario giving your time to us. I took all of the mica sprays to a craft gathering last month and the 10 of us had a blast spraying backgrounds.

[@LBJ6362]

Geez, I feel like I'm brand new to the crafty world lol I'm so grateful for your videos!

[@nicolalederer9517]

Watching part two as a re-run on Sunday morning (local time) - not as good as a live but a pretty good day to start a Sunday! Thank you, Tim and Mario for doing these, they are so much fun and knowledge and inspiration! Kind regards from Germany, Nicola

[@donnameyer4342]

I loved watching you on the Carol Duval show ! I used to tape them so I didn’t miss anything, I even still have my favorites. Thank you for the inspiration💕🎄☃️

[@tamaraklepel1517]

Excellent video! Thank you, Tim and Mario! I concur with comment below - it IS the advice given! I remember it from the Carol Duvall Show. That was what stayed with me for many years after!

[@CindyQuinzy]

Tim - your videos are ALWAYS SO UPBEAT and AMAZING. LOVE LOVE LOVE all the ideas you give us for using our stash in new and creative ways. You and Mario are treasures to the craft world. Thank you for being YOU! 💓

[@sandrahartley3461]

Absolutely loved the hoopla!!! I have missed you guys the late few Saturdays. However the is no Cut n Dry to be found. 😅 That means you did an awesome job. Just like always ❤ 3:25

[@MaryPrasadArt]

Fun! Thank you so much!

[@kandrews6356]

LOVE the outfit Mario... Happy Holidays Tim and Mario. I love the Hoopla because it gets me outside of the 'box'. Many times when I purchase a stamp/die/emboss/stencil, I have an idea in my head. It works out most of the time, but it also has a tendency to stop there and it's hard for me to see what else to do with that product. Your videos, tutorials, Hooplas, everything... helps me see many more creative ideas for that product. And especially this Hoopla because the 'mix-N-match-N-create was ingenious. Thank you so much.

[@michelel3372]

Thank you very much Tim and Mario! So much fun!! I really like the sticky embossing powder and rock candy glitter. So pretty!! ❤

[@debbiepohlkamp7495]

I so enjoyed spending the day with you guys. I learned a lot of things. Keep up the good work.

[@rachellelee7707]

I love you mentioning Carol Duvall. I would record her PBS videos, along with Aleene's Creative Living, and Sewing with Nancy (Zieman). They fueled my love of crafting. 😊

[@frans2887]

Thank you Tim and Mario for a great holiday hoopla! Wonderful inspiration! And thank you for “being real” about your warm feelings for your friend Carol…she had a good eye for talent as well as a big heart! Happy holidays!🫶🎄☃

[@kimries3173]

Thank you for the inspiration and the reminder on using things we already have, in different ways. And thanks for the pep talk at the end. Happy Holidays!

[@wandakuzyk]

Thank you for all you do. It is greatly appreciated and these words are truly not enough. I love all you do and am new to your videos. I have been buying your products for years but just recently jumped on the you tube wagon. Thank you so much. So sorry about Carol. ❤

[@debiv7834]

Great fun and so much inspiration!🎉 Thank you both for all your art, creative inspiration, tips and tricks! Much love and thanks! I look forward to trying so many cool things! I loved watching Carol she had such a great spirit and enthusiasm! I need to find her shows and watch again! 😢❤️Need Cut and Dry, sold out! I am on the list!❤❤🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

[@lisapremo9327]

Thank you so much for your Hoopla day! I had to come back and watch this again to ensure I really comprehended Cut-N-Dry. What an awesome tool and what a beautiful way to honor your friend Carol. I absolutely loved the chocolate boxes too! Cheers!

[@reet_creates]

[@maryzulick9369]

Love what you did with the tree shifter stencil. Very cool!

[@charylhodges470]

I had fun watching and learning. Thank you Tim and Mario for sharing.

[@christinehamilton2075]

Trying to find the cut n dry was creative, but I found some. Ranger needs to appoint you as honorary marketing rep. You show it and give the hint of its availability and woooo the sales!!! I love your examples, demos, encouragement, everything that you give so freely. And..I love your Tim wordies;) isms? Tim language

[@bdbear10]

Where did you get yours?
