'Twas the Night Before Christmas...A STAMP SET A DAY GIVEAWAY!!


'Twas the Night Before Christmas and all over the World,
Every Crafter was stirring, their minds were a blur,
Their eyes were wide with wonder, their excitement was grand,
To see the stunning creations, of one talented young man...

I know you are all awaiting the arrival of a special man very soon. He is very creative, he is magical, he is always full of surprises, he looks great in a red suit (I'm assuming:), and the day is almost here!

Santa Claus, you say? Well he is pretty awesome, too! But we are talking about the day that Tim Holtz arrives at CHA in California! Have you seen Tim's Blog? Check it out HERE! Tim has been teasing every artist in the world with his sneak peeks of his 12 New Distress Ink Colors and his Alterations Line by Sizzix that will be released at CHA in January 2010. Cross my fingers....I hope we get to see a little Idea-ology too!

Here's a special peek at the 12 New Distress Ink Pads by Tim Holtz! This is Tim's personal collection (it was the sweetest thing in the world that he sent us this picture to use!). The new colors are awesome, and the names are so descriptive. I am really looking forward to getting all of them myself!


To celebrate this upcoming release, we are giving away One Retro Holiday Unmounted Set EVERY DAY from Christmas to New Year's Day! That's one on December 25th, December 26th, December 27th, December 28th, December 29th, December 30th, December 31st, and January 1st of 2010! Whew....that's a lot! Who wants one?

What do you have to do to win?

It's easy...please comment on this blog and copy a link of your artwork inspired by Tim Holtz's 12 Tags of Christmas with your comment. We will draw one random winner for every day listed above! We want to see the awesome and creative things that you did with your tags using Tim's Distress Ink Pads, Alcohol Inks, Idea-ology Embellishments, Masks, Distress Embossing Powders, Grungeboard and Grungepaper, Distress Crackle Paints, Tools, Distress Stickles, and Stamps!

Please check back to this posting...I will be adding the list of winners every day!

    I managed all 12 tags this year thanks to Simon Says. Even though I live in the UK, you sent my orders so quickly that they beat items posted from only 30miles away!! Now that's what I call a top service. You can see my efforts at:

    I haven't posted my tag on my blog yet (it will go live on Monday), but have already put it in my SCS gallery. You can see it here:

    http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/1573267

    I don't have much in the way of Tim Holtz products (love his style, but it's not usually mine) so I substituted what I had & used a cracked glass technique instead of the crackle paint.

    Oh my gosh.....
    I think you love Tim and his products as much as I do.
    I NEED to get those new colors, sadly... it will take a while before they will be available in the Netherlands.
