HMMMM.....WHAT DID CAT DO YESTERDAY?

Neither Cat or Ann are morning people.

Even though they love Tim's classes,

do they really have to make them begin at 8:00 a.m.????

They were given these goodies to make this:

SUNDAY INSPIRATION FROM THE COLLINS SHOW

Cat and Ann headed to Orlando on Thursday

for lots of inspiration at the Collins show.

 

Cat made a video of their first day of classes:

Cat and Ann do not attend the same classes so that

they are able to bring back more to share with us.

This is Cat and some friends (up to no good!)

getting ready to create with Tim Holtz!

Poor Tim doesn't know what he is in for with them in his class!

 

 This is their class kit full of yummy supplies from Ranger!
