Uploaded June 2026 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago
I am so happy to have once again share a project with Tim Holtz Colorize. Clarence the elephant is from the Tim Holtz Chapter 2 2020 release and he is just adorable. Thankfully he has just been re-released from Tim and Sizzix along with a little brother in a mini version of Clarence.
This project and tutorial were originally for the Sizzix blog back in 2020, but that blog is long gone and so is the tutorial. So I searched my archives and I found it, and decided why not post it on. my blog in celebration of the re-release of Clarence.
I wasn't doing You Tube videos back then, so this is a talk through with the step out photos. I thought I might help with some people who prefer to listen rather than read, or who like to have both options.
The step out photos and written instructions are on my blog here: playswellwithpaper.blogspot.com/2020/05/clarence-and-watering-hole.html
Thank you very much for checking out this tutorial. I hope you find it helpful,
Tami

![Stamptember 2023
Its finally here! Tim Holtz Stamptember 2023 collaboration with Simon Says Stamp! Remember, this is an exclusive stamp set and can only be purchased from Simon Says Stamp. Stamptember is SSSs celebration and support of stamping and stamping companies. They put an immense amount of work, planning and energy into this month and it is something we should all celebrate. So I did! Here is my sample card made with the Tim Holtz Stamptember Set. AND THERE ARE SURPRISE MATCHING DIES! Link below
Fair warning, not only are these stamp sets exclusive, but they are limited and sell out within hours to days, so if you want it, I wouldnt wait. When it is gone it is gone and it will not be restocked. Have fun and check out any of the remaining Stamptember sets while you are there. Might as well take advantage of the free shipping if you can, and support more stamp companies as well. Win/Win!
Have a creative day,
Tami

![Embark Melange Foot Stool
I have the tutorial posted on my no-sew footstool project made with Tim Holtz Embark Melange. It is only on my YouTube Channel right now.
I had a ball making things out of the Tim Holtz Embark Substrates.
Since this is the first tutorial for my fabric projects I thought I should give you all fair warning that they are not perfect. They are not made the way the pros do things either. But they are authentically me having fun and making the way I always do when I work with fabric...perfectly imperfect.
So if you are a fabric crafter who is a stickler for sewing and cutting straight lines, following patterns, and meticulous finishing, these tutorials will probably drive you crazy! 😄 There is none of that here. There is more of jumping in, doing it and throwing fabric caution to the wind. Regardless, I hope you enjoy the makes and my process as much as I did and as always I hope that you find at least one thing to inspire you….even if it’s that you could make it way better than I did…because you could. 😄
Now let’s go have a creative day! 😃

![Celtic Mix Hanging Wall Decor - Whimsy Stamps
I just love the new St. Patrick’s release and wanted to make a décor piece with the Vintage Postcards. Today’s tutorial is a little bit longer than usual, because there were many steps. Regardless, it is simple enough that even if you have never made a vignette décor piece, you will be able to do this.
Below are the Whimsy Stamps items I used to make this piece if you are interested.
I hope you have a creative day! 😃

![Yo Ho And a Bottle of Rum - Idea ology
Todays make is the second in a trio of pirate domes that I made for the Tim Holtz Halloween 2026 release. The structure is again a Display Dome so it is small so you have to make the most of the space you have under the glass. Todays dome is inspired by the Poison Raven Tavern from a large pirate make I did in 2023.
Of course I filmed as I made, so I do have a process video tutorial for this make. It is difficult to film while making and sometimes I forget to hit record or I accidentally work off camera, but I hope I captured enough to help inspire you in your own making process.
For The Rich Stuff treasure dome, you can see my tutorial here: https://youtu.be/0mRUs12OD78
And for the still photos of todays dome you can see those here: https://playswellwithpaper.blogspot.com/2026/08/yo-ho-and-bottle-of-rum-tim-holtz-idea.html

![Thats the Spirit for Whimsy Stamps
This is the second card I made this year for the Whimsy Stamps Halloweeneers Design Team. I had this card planned last year using Whimsy Stamps, dies and paper, but just never got around to it, so I decided that this was the year!
This video is longer than I planned because I had a scary event happen in the middle of filming and I took time to tell you all about it. So if you dont have time for the storytime portion, just mute me and play if in FF. LOL. For those of you who enjoy a little story telling with the making, then I hope you enjoy this video. :-D
I have close-ups on my blog at http://playswellwithpaper.blogspot.com/2023/08/thats-spirit-whimsy-stamps.html
and you can contact me there with any questions that require a longer answer than I can provide in the comments for this video tutorial.
Thank you so very much for watching! I truly appreciate it!
Have a creative day,
Tami

![Forgotten Garden Split Front Card
This is the Sixth and last card I created for the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous 2024 stamp and stencil release.
Todays card is a split front card in that the right 1 is secured in place and the left 3 1/4 panel opens.
I used the Label Layering Stencil for the background, the Crochet Trims for the secured panel and Forgotten Garden for the focal point. I did add the sentiment at the very end from Curiosity Shop.
You can see detail photos and brief instructions on my blog at: https://playswellwithpaper.blogspot.com/2024/04/forgotten-garden-split-front-card.html

![Snowy Woods Reliquary Dome
This snowy woodsy scene was inspired by Robert Frosts poem Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening. I taught it for many years in my classroom and even since then on occasions when I am caught in a quiet, tranquil moment alone, or when I have miles to go before I sleep.
This piece was made with Tim Holtz Christmas Idea-ology for the 2024 release.
I consider it a beginner/intermediate level project that I believe anyone can make.
