New Product Alert! Tim Holtz Stencils In Stock Now!

It’s gonna be a great week…I can feel it in my bones!

Just a quick update on a product MANY of you are asking about:  Tim Holtz new stencils are IN STOCK NOW!

It was when I actually held the “Stars” stencil in my hand a few weeks ago in a CHA Educational workshop that I realized that I absolutely must have these stencils.  All of them.  They are the best of the best of quality and made just up the road in the good ole’ USA.  You can ink through them, mist through them, stamp designs using the stencil as a mask, layer them, draw through them….that very Tim Holtz expression “The possibilities are endless” is so very true.  The stencils are a ton of fun and a really affordable and creative way to add miles to your craft stash!  Try one …. ‘er….two …and I think you’ll see exactly what I mean!  Below is an example where I used the picket fence stain to create a subtle star background on a Christmas themed card.  Easy peazy! AND FUN!

hey everyone, i’m thrilled to announce my latest collaboration with stampers anonymous – introducing layering stencils.  there is no doubt the use of stencils in art and mixed media are definitely the latest must have tools.  i wanted to design stencils that were a little more imperfect as a way to add texture and imagery along with my stamps.  so what better way to achieve that than to work with stampers anonymous to bring some of my most popular stamp designs to life as stencils.  i have to say that i couldn’t be happier with the final outcome, and trust me, when you see the grungy detail of these 13 designs of layering stencils you will be happy too…

These tag shaped stencils can be used to layer with inks, stains, paints, and more!

Each stencil measures approximately 4.125” x 8.5”

Do you have a favorite!?  Mine is the stars…but I really like that dot fade too.  Thinking about using my favorite squeezed lemonade distress ink with the “measured” design as well.  Don’t you think the burlap stencil REALLY looks like burlap?

Be sure to comment below to tell us about your favorite, and how you’d like to use it, and one lucky winner will receive a $15 gift card to our store.  Winner will be drawn Tuesday.  You could pick up a few stencils with that gift!

Have an awesome week!  It’s been lovely starting out the week with GREAT NEWS!  :)

  1. They look all great, but, since I already have a few (you could say more than a few) stencils and just love working with them, I would go for the Cargo, Clockwork, Rays and Burlap. Just because I think they are the most versatile for me….

  2. These are just awesome! I’m loving Splatters, Honeycomb, Eye Chart and Clockworks! Not that I don’t adore the other LOL!

  3. Love them all but I think paint spatters may turn out to be my favorite since I have been unable to find the stamps for paint spatters.

  4. Hmmmmm, I was trying to stay away from stencils, but they do look so fun. I’d have to say the stars, faded dots and burlap are my faves.

  5. All are fabulous but I have to admit that my favorite is Dot Fade! This would add an extra touch to my scrapbook pages without distracting to much.

  6. It is a toss up between the dot fade and the burlap. Both add nice texture that would be versatile even if the distressed look isn’t your style.

  7. Wonderful announcement, these are pretty cool. My favorite is the RAYS stencil although I agree with you, having each and every one of them would be great.

  8. Dot Fade is my first choice–so many ways to use it. Stripes, Bubble and Measured are also fabulous. Really, I love the whole collection. Thanks for a chance to win.

  9. you can just send them ALL to my house! grins! they are fabulous! first on my list would have to be ‘splatters’ though….. I am a coffee lover first and foremost! :)

  10. I think Dots Fade is my favorite because it’s so versatile, I think it will get a lot of use on all my projects because it can be really subtle or a focal point.

  11. So many great stencils!! My favorite is Bubble, and I have an art project that it would be perfect for! I really like Splatters a lot also! Thank you so much for the chance to win! :-) xx

  12. Oh no……..dont ask us to choose. I wondered which to buy. But each time ending up that I need them all.
    Really looking forward to play with all the new stuff being released.
    Thank you for the wonderful option to win a $15 gift card….hope to win…..LOL

  13. I’m excited about the bubble wrap stencil! No can see lots of this done for backgrounds on cards!!

  14. Hard to say whether stencils came first or Tim Holtz promoting them! His of course are all must haves and it is nice they are so affordable. The burlap would be my first choice and I bet it will give the look of the real thing. Love Tim Holtz!

  15. Ohh, I love these, I love them all but my faves are dot fade and paint splatter. They would make great backgrounds on cards and scrapbook pages.

  16. Love the splatters! A great way to the get the splattered look on cards without the mess. LOL

  17. WOW! I love all these stencils! But if I have to pick only a couple of favorites, they would be the Splatters and Rays. I can just imagine how fun these will be to play with. Thanks for a chance to win. :D

  18. Well, I love the stars, too. But that burlap is great, the eye chart is fun, the rays are so cool…! Uh-oh, I think I’m gonna want them all. Thanks for sharing (I think?)!

  19. I`m with you, the stars are my favorite and I would love to use it for my Christmas Cards.

  20. I love them all, but if you want me to pick just one it would be the dots or maybe the sun rays or maybe the burlap, see I can’t make up my mind they are all so great!!

  21. Love numbers and letters (cargo) !!!! and Burlap and splatters !!! An amazing idea, shape of a tag on a key ring. Love it!!

  22. I love splatteres but can’t wait to get my hands on all of them.
    can’t wait to use them on journals and cards. It’s so exciting the size is perfect. Yippee!

  23. The stencils caught my eye from the CHA Utube videos I saw. They are on my TO ORDER lists.

  24. I absolutely love the burlap and the paint spatters…..actually I absolutely love them all and think they would be so fun to try!!!!

  25. I like the stars and I would use them with the distress paints they all look like lots of fun. Thanks for sharing them with us.

  26. I guest if I had to choose just one favorite, I’d choose the rays stencil. I could really see myself using it on cards. It just has such a happy, positive look to it! Of course, the splatters one looks great, too; wonderful artsy look. I’d really love to win the gift card to get some stencils (hint hint)! Just saying. :-)
