Hello, blog friends! I've left submissions for Grungy Monday 37: Tim Holtz Wearable Art open through Sunday, March 4. If you haven't had the opportunity to submit a piece yet, please do! If you have, why not submit a second entry? I'll be sending a cool prize to one randomly-selected entrant! A new Grungy Monday challenge will post Monday, March 5, and it's going to be a blast! This week, though, is about getting ready for the NEXT big thing:
This. Is. HUGE! Trust me, I got to peek through a copy at CHA last month, and Tim has truly outdone himself. Here's the lowdown from his website:
The creativity continues with Volume II of Compendium of Curiosities filled with new ideas, new products, and new techniques. Just like the first volume, this is not your typical "how to make" book, but "how to create" so you can explore and apply these new techniques however you decide. I hope to lead you on another artful journey filled with unexpected inspiration.Awesome!
A lot of kind people have asked if I'll be hosting a challenge series for this book as I did for Volume 1, and the answer is, "Yes, yes and more yes!" I truly can't wait!
Of course, that will happen after everyone has had the opportunity to get a copy for themselves. For those who wish to purchase their book directly from Tim-- which I highly recommend, as he will autograph it for you-- there's now a link on his site where you can pre-order. Currently, he's estimating a ship date of March 1. Holy moly, that's this week, you guys! And, he ships internationally. Just so you know. ;-)
I'll post an announcement as soon as I have a starting date for CCC2 (or, I might just tell you to keep April 13 open...shhh!). Meanwhile, if you want to play along (and I hope you do!) get yourself a copy of the book, skim through it and make a list of any new products you might need, and stay turned for more information. Grungy Monday will continue until CCC2 begins, so there's tons more Tim technique action coming!
YAY!

I'm thrilled you are hosting new CCC challenges, Linda! My book is on pre-order... cannot wait to see all the new tips and techniques!
Thanks for the heads-up on the book. Just ordered from tim and can't wait to get my inky fingers on it! Gonna try to keep up with the challenges.... Try being the operative word here. =0)
My budget means I will have to wait a while to order this new "must have" as I just couldn't go for it when it was on QVC UK last week - but I will join in when I can...
I was so hoping your would do a CCC2! My book is on preorder, so WooHoo! Have a GM, GF!
Oh Yay!! I was hoping you would host a CCC2! (still lovin' my GM too!) I've pre-ordered my copy..can't wait to get started.
Yeah! I am looking forward to it Linda! I ordered mine from Tim and can't wait for it to come. Wish I was able to get to CHA this winter. Hope you I will see you at the summer CHA in Chicago :) Miss you. Looking forward to round#2 of CCC. I'm posting the info on my site now. :))
Mine is on Pre-order too Linda. But I'm looking forward to taking part in the challenges. Should be fun. Hugs Rita xxx
Cool! I didn't know you could order them directly from Tim! I just placed my order....can't wait for the challenges. =)
I pre-ordered my copy this morning from Tim! I cannot wait to see all the new techniques!
Good to hear you will continue with the second Compendium of Curiosities!!
Woo Hoo! Ordered mine last week though not direct from Tim. Cannot wait for it to arrive and for your Challenges to start!! Will you be running two challenges then or just CCC2?
Good question, Sam! Grungy Monday will go on vacation during the CCC2, but it will most likely come back once we've completed those 35 challenges. :-)
Got mine preordered!
Yah!!! Preordered baby!!! Bring on the challenges!!!
Would love volume II but having just got the full set of distress markers I fear it will have to wait lol
Anyway, can't wait to see what the challenges are and if I can work out how to link to my blog I may even enter :-)
I can't wait to get mine... my local store has ordered mine !
Can't wait. I don't think they are hitting the UK stores until the end of the month, but hopefully that will mean I still have time to get mine before mid April!!

I'm anxiously awaiting for my book to arrive. The fact that you gave rave reviews makes me want the book even sooner.
