Announcing Tim Holtz Summer of Creative Chemistry (plus a new class!)

We are thrilled to host a fun, technique-filled summer of Creative Chemistry with Tim Holtz! Starting Wednesday, June 1, we invite all Creative Chemistry students to join Tim as he guides you through Creative Chemistry 101 and 102 once again. Whether you are a new student or a returning student, this summer promises to be jam-packed with inky and “scientific” fun! Plus, we’re capping off the summer with Tim’s new class, Creative Chemistry 103 (open for registration now!).

What are Tim’s plans for Summer of Creative Chemistry? Tim wants to encourage all students to refresh your technique knowledge to be ready for 103 in August! Although there are no new lessons in 101 and 102, each week throughout June and July, login to class to see a new challenge that relates to class lesson topics. Plus, the forums will be opened once again for you to talk and chat with fellow students and ask Tim questions too!

For the first time, Tim will also be hosting LIVE chats for an opportunity to connect with you personally! Login to class to see when the live chats will take place. We hope to see you there!

And don’t forgot to register for Creative Chemistry 103! It will be the perfect ending to a whirlwind summer of colorful techniques and learning.

NOTE: Simon Says Stamp is having a sale on Ranger products this weekend, too! Use the code RANGER20 for 20% off Ranger products (May 27-30 at 11:59 PM EST). Go HERE to start shopping!

See you there! For more details from Tim, check out the video below…

  1. How terrific to have an opportunity to chat with fellow students and Tim about Creative Chemistry 101 and 102 techniques and ideas but WOW how exciting to have a new Creative Chemistry class!

    Can’t wait…

  2. I am sure many will flock to see these wonderful classes. Tim and his products and Ranger products are extremely popular. Regretfully, I will have to miss this as I’m having surgery on my leg end of June and won’t be able to sit with a computer for quite a while, having to keep legs up high. This will be hard to accept, but I’m sure I will hear about it all when I resume watching blogs. Have fun everyone! Jealous!

    1. So sorry to hear you’ll be on the mend during Summer of Creative Chemistry. But no worries! If you’re already a Creative Chemistry 101 and 102 student, all of the fun will be archived. You will be able to login later and see the challenges and view live chats after they are archived.

  3. Well, this made my start of the Summer so sweet. I am signed up once again for 103 and I look forward to the refresher classes of our previous awesome classes in 101 and 102. THANKS TIM AND MARIO for always encouraging us to expand our creativity and teaching us so much.

    1. You can have to take the classes in order. 101 is a prerequisite for 102, so the class has to be in your account before you’re able to purchase 102. The same for 103 (102 is a prerequisite). Tim requires this because he wants all students to take the classes in order and not skip any.

    1. No, you cannot purchase all three classes at once. 101 is a prerequisite for 102, so the class has to be in your account before you’re able to purchase 102. The same for 103 (102 is a prerequisite). Tim requires this because he wants all students to take the classes in order and not skip any.

      1. If we have taken Tim’s classes 101 and 102 before, they are still available, right? I haven’t tried to log on for awhile.

        2. I need to get my class materials out of storage, if I
          Can find them. How can I log into 101 and 102? I can’t remember when I last signed on. I really need this to get me back into this learning mode ( this is new email)

  7. Wow! what an awesome opportunity!! Would I have to have enrolled for Creative chemistry 101 and 102 to take the 103 class? Also, If I buy the 103 class, will I have access to the refresher on 101 and 102?

    Reply

    1. You have to take them 1 at a time. Completing 101 gives you access to do 102. Once they have both been completed, then you can do 103. They each have prerequisites for the next. Hope this helps!

  11. How fun! I purchased the 101 class a long time ago but never got around to view all lessons and play, so this will be a great incentive to start again!

  12. This is so exciting! I loved 101 and 102 and still refer back to them. Looking forward to new ways to play and inky fingers. See everyone there.

    1. Tim has not compiled a supply list for 103 yet. Registered students will receive an email letting you know when it’s available.

    1. No, there is not. 101 is a prerequisite for 102, so the class has to be in your account before you’re able to purchase 102. The same for 103 (102 is a prerequisite). Tim requires this because he wants all students to take the classes in order and not skip any.

  16. Any idea how these classes line up with the in person creative chemistry class that Tim is teaching ilthis summer ? I’m signed up for the one in Los Gatos and I don’t know if the online 101 102 classes would be better taken before the online class.

    Reply

    1. I’m not sure of the content of Tim’s in-person classes. If I were you, I would go head and sign up for 101 and follow along with the challenges and lessons starting June 1. Then whenever you go to the in-person class, you’re just that much more familiar with the products and techniques. :)

  17. Oooh great! Down here, we’re all upside down and wintery. Can’t think of anything better to do to keep cosy in our winter here in OZ.

  18. Just signed up for 103, I love Tim and Mario! I have never been disappointed with Tim Holtz classes, even if you know the techniques his energy and enthusiasm makes it worth it. This is a great way to avoid AZ heat.

  20. Thanks for the heads-up on the SSS Ranger sale that ended yesterday. I got my order in to them in the nick of time. I didn’t think there were any supplies I needed for 101 & 102 until I checked the state of my Metallic Mixatives, three of which had dried up completely. I couldn’t find the little felt pads for my alcohol ink blender either, so I got more of those — plus a couple of newer items :-)

  21. This is so exciting! I haven’t been able to create in a very long time since I decided to go back to school. However, I will only take one course during the Summer semester… soooo yay!!

  28. Just what I needed to get me out of a recent creative slump. I’m going to get signed up for 103 now before I forget and miss out. 101 and 102 were well worth the $. I allows me to properly educate my customers about the products we offer. Money well spent! Can’t wait for 103…and this Summer of Creativity refresher of 101 and 102!

  35. Starting with Chemistry 101 starting June 1 through June 30~would I be able to enroll anytime during the month or is it crucial to enroll on the 1st? Is each day a new class during the whole month? Just trying to understand how the classes work since today is the first I am aware of these classes.
    Thank you
