Congratulations to Janet on winning the last prize package! Enjoy!
I think I would use the paper dolls in a collage card.
First and foremost, the Tim Holtz Sepia Paper Dolls. These look like a blast for art journaling!
It’s for manly men. Ah, but I like it too.
Oooo! Super cool! I see lots of mixed media potential in the Tim Holtz collection!
Hah! I’ve been waiting for the mini pulley wheels! I want to use them
on a small cigar box steampunk project. The French Design Tape Set
would be the another great embellishment for that project! Yay!!!!!
I love the rulers, I would use them first , with the dolls….in a project as yet unimagined.
Couldn’t pick just one Tim Holtz item; the Mission Style bed will be fun to work with.
Oh these would make great Fathers Day cards, something so different for sure.
I love Tim Holtz stuff!! I would use the vintage paper dolls first – those are so cool! Then I would use the rest of his stuff!
I love this theme! I would use the vintage paper dolls on an art journal project I have in mind.
I’d totally find a way to play with the ruler pieces first! 🙂
I love the paper dolls and the rulers so I’d have to use them together somehow!
I would use the paper dolls and wooden rulers for cards. I love using vintage images and the rules would be great for edging. These would be great for cards for my grown sons. Lovely stuff!
The rulers for sure in collage.!
Big fan of Tim Holtz & love his new stuff-the paper dolls are so cute with lots of possibilities. >^..^<
I love this I would use the bed first and decorate it I would make a diorama for my son’s room. Thanks
It would be the wood rulers and the bed! My son is a carpenter and I am currently making a journal for him that will have the look of being very old. This would be great to incorporate in this book.
Thanks!
The TH paperdolls maybe in a bedroom with the baseball cards hung on the wall. Love this theme!
I love finding new found relatives and adding to tags with humorous quotes! I am such a big fan of these Manly Men images, too! Exciting new products all the way around.
Love it all but would use the antique doll paper for papering a mini box with small antique (or reproductions) toys and dolls.
I would use the bed first I think. So many possibilities😊
Wooden ruler pieces would be my go to first item. I think I’d work on a sectioned box and do something masculine.
Oh I am such a ruler freak. I don’t know why but I save old rulers and yard sticks lol. I would have to do something right off with those rulers. This a great stuff bc there isn’t a lot of guy related stuff out there. I love this! Maybe a shadow box for my daughter who has a grown boy she would really love it. That little mitt and baseball bat.
I wish you had soccer balls too!
Where would I start? I am loving the idea of a baseball themed collage/shawdow box for my grandson’s room.
Such fun! Love the baseball items!
I would love to work with the wooden ruler pieces first.
Oh the paper dolls, in a shadowbox or three. That would be wonderful.
Dancing men?! I love men that dance. Don’t know what I’ll do with them yet, but they will certainly be my inspiration!
Love this set. – I think I would create a habadashery theme.
I’d work with the bed first.
Great project.
I think I would have to incorporate the dancing men into a shadowbox/tray. Love that there are some “less feminine” options!
Just love Tim Holtz stuff. I’d use the rulers to create a unique frame for a special sewing friend of mine!
the bed and pile all the kids on while Mom reads a book for Mother’s Day
Definitely the bed….the little boy who lives in my dollhouse needs a new one!
I can totally envision a Steampunk bed with a top hat on the bedpost
I would use the Sepia Vintage Paper Dolls in an assemblage piece…maybe a vignette in an altoids tin.
