I know I know I'm late to the party! I got ALL the paints available, ALL the distressed crayons available, and ALL the watercolor Pencils available and im ready to play! Mario I've told my husband that Tim is my boyfriend. I've watching the demo's over and over again as I have NO IDEA what I'm doing. So when my husband hears Tim's voice he's like, "spending time with your boyfriend again I see". I'm like yep don't interrupt! lol too funny. Love you guys! Xoxo ❤❤❤
Without your explanations on each release it would just be color in jar. You explain the properties of each medium, the demos, the possibilities! You make the products come alive! Tim truly enjoy your videos and watching you make magic and Mario making it happen!
I love your lives but I also save them to go back to watch to review too!!❤❤ Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent!!! For free too! Some of us who are retired and have a very limited budget will buy products before spending money on classes!! I love the way you show how to use product in so many different ways. I am a Tim Holtz addict 😂😂🎉I have been a fan of yours from the very beginning 😊So glad you are happy when you demo! You get excited when you create! Mario is your definite better half🥰
Have to say was having a bad day...watched this and haven't watched for soo long and haven't crafted for 2 ro 3 years...wow what a lift this live has given me and got me itching to get some stuff out and play. Thanks Tim and Mario...Great live!
Tim, you are the best teacher of your things because you know what you know and it’s not until YOU let us know that we know too! Thank you for sharing your ideas, you never cease to amaze even after all these years!
You are my favourite teacher. Thank you so very much for another wonderful inspiration class. I loved the eroded metallic lesson. You’re the best.❤❤❤Wishing you and Mario a great rest of your afternoon. Take care 😊
Thank you to Ranger for bringing these back! And thank you Tim and Mario for spending so many Saturday’s with us! Usually watch on Sunday with a friend and we look forward to coffee and Tim☺️.
I learned so much from this live. 2 things I take away from every live, I’m always reminded to make time to craft and if Tim takes extra time to clean up every day then so can I. Also, Dear Ranger, please give Tim everything he wants, because it’s also what we want.
Nods and smiles affectionately! Bravo Tim and Mario! My mind is blown. Thank goodness I can stay home tomorrow and just play and create!!! Thank you so much for all that you both do! Hugs,GinaB💖😍💕🥰
Distress paints are the BEST in paper crafting, please bring them back all, we can’t have anxiety about the possibility of running out of even one single colour! Thank you for the wonderful video 🥰
"Popcorn brain" 😂😂😂 Great video! Thank you for all the demos and explanations, it was very educational 🎉 Love your line "completely dry is when it is not wet at all" 😂😂😂
Wow mr. Holtz, taking “my hat off and making a reverence”…You have given us a master class on how to use the paints, I have only gotten three colors, I hope I can get more, but the tips and tricks have been very illustrative! thank you so much! You're the best!
I watch your videos every night because I’ve had insomnia since my knee replacement. But ironically it’s been a bonus for me b/c I’ve learned so much. Thanks for the videos I love them. ❤️
Couldn't watch the reveal and demo live, but spent my evening watch! Wow, totally awesome. Thank you for being willing to share all your knowledge and creativity. Thank you to you and Ranger for this great gift. Cant wait to get my order!
Tim you are such an amazing teacher!! Thank you so much for continuing to share your time, talent, and knowledge with the world. I always learn something new each time I watch one of your videos, and when I can achieve similar results to those by you and your amazing makers, it inspires me to create even more. My daughter and I have even turned a tiny corner at the top of the stairs into our “art room” and spent all our free time this cold winter and very wet spring creating lovely things together, so thank you for that very precious gift as well! The distress paints are one of my favorite products, so I truly hope Ranger finds a way to keep/bring back these colors-even if only alternating years like the holiday mica sprays and crayons. Fingers crossed!
" The Mayor of Tag Town" 🤣 had me laughing, always lifts my spirits these lives! Excellent addition of the paint tin storage and love these new /old colours. Always learn so much with these demos thank you for providing them free of charge Tim and sharing your knowledge!
OMG. I watched the live and now I am watching the replay.... this was just awesome... so much info and techniques. I also bought the bundle offered by Ranger, and just in case this helps anybody else, Ranger has the bundle cheaper than anybody else❤.Mario, I love it when we get to see your beautiful smile❤
LOVED THIS VIDEO! I stopped after you said limited release long enough to order 2 of each set and extra tins! I really wasn’t familiar with Distress Paints as I’m fairly late (in the scheme of things) to the world of Tim Holtz. Now I just want to live in that world all the time! Distress, Stampers Anonymous, Sizzix, and of course Ideaology are widening my creative world. And how it all works together is genius. Luckily I have a very supportive spouse! Thanks so much!❤
I know this video is a month old already, but I just want to say I love the way you respond to comments. I'm at 2:28:53 and there was a comment about you using a lot of brown. Your response made me so so happy, I make albums for people and am pushed out of my comfort zone with colors so often, I always have to create something for myself later so I can just use the colors that make me happy, walnut stain and gathered twigs😅. Dear Tim and Mario thank you for making me feel like I can create freely❤ and giving me the confidence I need to create happily❤. Lots of love from the Netherlands
You know what I love about Tim? His passion and enthusiasm for the craft. I share that as I know many of you do. Is it just paint we are getting excited about? I mean it’s just paint! No my friends it is not just paint - it’s Distress Paint! This was so timely for me as I have had my eye on Distress paints for awhile. Thank you Tim for doing this demo and thank you Ranger for bringing these back from retirement. I am excited about this and yes Gathered Twigs should be brought back permanently from retirement. As a discerning crafter I know that this tone is the perfect marriage of Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain. 😀😀😀
personal opinion and maybe not a popular one but I think none of the 72 colors should be retired. in any medium. if something isn't as popular maybe make a smaller batch each time. but they should always be made. and if they are going to cut a whole line maybe warn us when the last batch is made. like the mica crayons. if i'd known last year that that was the end, i'd have ordered another set or two cause I really love those crayons. but that's just me
I learn so much from you. You inspired my creativity so much. I took in person classes with you in the past. Last time I saw you was back on 2018 at The Mega Meet / Novi, Michigan. I am so grateful for technology and that you are able to do the lives . Blessings for you and Mario. You two are so loved by us - Teresita Arvelo -
What an amazing video! So much talent in your house! I’m eager to get my hand on some of those vault paints. Thanks Tim and Mario and of course Ranger! 🤗🇨🇦🤗
I love these lives. I'm on the rewatch crew for this one, and I catch more negative comments when I'm on rewatch. It's disheartening. We have someone that is SO talented, and gives us hours of his time to teach us FOR FREE, and people whine and complain about the most minute and unimportant things. Just be grateful. Be thankful that someone is willing to share his talent. And, as Tim says (and I doubt this is exactly right) "If you don't have anything nice to say, find something nice to say"
I understand the limited time on the paints, luckily I still found some available but, oh there’s gonna be a but. I’ve been watching the new releases vs the retired paints and the only conclusion I have reached is the Ranger headquarters space needs to be bigger 😂 Literally I just saw a second release of these little hands to hold paper while embossing so your fingers don’t get hot. Now they come in a variety of colors. Ok. But the retired colors of paint, call me crazy, makes more sense than little hands in different colors. It only serves one purpose, no matter the color. You can’t say the same about Distress Paint. Distress Paint has many purposes. I feel a bit jilted being a tiny one of many who helped propel Ranger’s success by supporting your numerous product lines made by Ranger, including paints, and now a part of my creativity now gets shelved in the vault. Thank you for going to bat for us to have these paints made available, even if for a limited time. The first, and only release I’ll own, of my mini embossing hands are clapping for the limited edition Distress Paints.
Finally got a chance to listen to the entire video. The patina demo cinched it - I needed a good birthday present so I ordered the full set of paints and container. So happy. Can’t wait to play.
Tim & Mario Thank you for spending so much time educating and reeducating! I love watching you and all the ideas that you share and inspire! Thank you! Thank you!!! Thank you!!!!
New favourite word ever “craftermath”!!!! Thank you for the demo I missed the introduction to the paints when they were first launched so it’s great to see these repeat demos while using your different mediums together!
Love your Distress Paints and Alcohol Inks for use on polymer clay jewelry makes. I learn something new every time you post a new video. Thank you Tim and Mario for all the hard work and prep time it takes to put one of these amazing tutorials together.
"Safe spots" are the bane of my existence. Great video, Tim, glad I was able to see the replay plus the chat. I had been waiting for the tins for the glass reinkers!
watched evey bit of that 3 hours... oh my word ... awesome demos , gonna have fun trying ! Glad to see eroded demo again ... might get brave enough to try again LOL !! Thank you !!
I was so excited about this release! I am new to the distress paints and was sad about the retired colors - I bought this as soon as it dropped! Thank you 🤗
Thank you yet again for these inspirational videos. Would love to be able to purchase a sketch book with the heavy mixed media paper in it... a Tim Holtz grungy junk journal so to speak.
Hi Tim and Mario, what a rocking live this was. Thanks for the replay. Thank you for always sharing, Tim. You are so generous with your knowledge and time and I know there are many of us are truly grateful for this. Looking forward to the next one - much love and respect from Malaysia
just watched the replay and wanted to say thank you soo much for sharing so much information on paints!! Looking forward to playing with them with what I've learned! You guys are the best!!!!
Absolutely loved watching this. Thank you for making them. Yes long but no one said you have to watch in one sitting. I sure didn’t but I sure learned sooooo much. Ordered them all and then some. Tim I love your products and demos. I’m rich in Tim Holtz products. They are amazing!!!!! Thank you again. ❤
Hi Tim… Awesome demo… so happy to see the comments were turned on to be able to THANK YOU for sharing your expertise in playing with Distress mediums… I enjoyed every technique… Have a wonderful weekend! 🙂
I truly love your videos, Tim! You are teaching me so much. I actually keep a notebook of ideas, etc. For instance: Tim Holtz...section: youtube...then I note what I learned, say "paints, metallic". This really keeps things organized for me, when I need ideas, or can't remember where I saw a technique. (its the homeschool mom in me! Lol). You show how to use my supplies in ways I never thought of, and you help expand my imagination. Thanks Tim & Mario! °Bets in PA°. 💜💜💜
After every live re-play that I watch, I’m always so inspired to crack it all out and have a big play day 🤩 Thanx for inspiring me soooo much ✌🏽 I tried three different fun new experiments ✌🏽
Tim I just love your videos. They are long and full of such yumminess!!! Learn soooo much from you snd your amazingly talented designers. You are all a wonderful group of human beings. Thanks to Mario who also brings a smile to my face. Love from Connecticut ❤
I was on the fence about the paints, but mid-video I had placed my order! Excellent examples of all the many applications and mixtures with other ranger mediums--so excited to play once my order arrives. :) Thank you for your videos and the positivity you put out to our world. Sincerely grateful for you! :)
I love this video. You are always so happy and pleased to give us some new ideas and even some old ones that we may have missed! I usually don’t comment on the videos but I really think it is important to let you know how much I appreciate your hard work in showing us all of the cool things. Thank you so much! :)
Hello Crafters! So much information and tips! I love LOVE l-o-v-e this video! Keep 'em coming please! I'm definitely investing in Mica Stains! Love your live demos! Just priceless info!
Thank you sooo much! Appreciate the paint demo cause I have a lot of paint and now my Amazon cart filled with other goodies from this demo. Let the masterpiece begin❤
Just had a great day playing with the distress paints I’ve had for years. Thanks Tim, I’d forgotten just how different they were. Definitely heading over to SSS for all this release ❤
Ahhh I almost commented on IG too that this may have something to do with paints (which I've been wanting to buy for sooo long now once I have play time money). So excited to watch this!
