Tim Holtz and his designers are very dangerous ….dangerous for my pocket. Everytime I watch a live I end up spending a fortune on supplies and then get frustrated because i don’t even come close to their level.
Your card is fantastic beautiful texture and fabulous warm colours reminds me of marmalade for some reason.
I’ve been a big fan of Kaths for many years she really is an amazing artist.
