I met Tim Holtz at CHA





I was so excited when finally I got to see Tim alone and chat with him about his new products. He asked me if I had seen his new SCRUNCH BOARD and I hadn't. So I asked him what was so unique and special about this product and he scrunched it up in a ball and then it flattened out when he let go of it. It seems like a chipboard/rubber kind of product. So I asked him why did he want this kind of product and he said because this doesn't break and so he can hammer it, twist it and be ruff with it and doesn't have to worry about it breaking like chipboard does. He said it's way more durable and can handle any kind of distressing. And yes, you can do anything to it that you can do to chipboard. You can paint it, ink it and texturize it. Yes, Tim also has this cool hammer that you can hammer different textures into chipboard. It's awesome.
I also loved the new scrunchboard letters that he made because they come really big (8") and then they have various other smaller sizes in the same package. They're awesome and I can't wait to get them in.
