Ooooh should I tell...????

I have been holding off on a little announcement for a while now, and I think now that I've crossed the I's and dotted the T's it is time to spill the beans....

See if you can guess from this clip...






Did you get it...???

Yup, thats right .. I am the new guest presenter on QVC.

I am joining them as their expert for the Ranger  and Tim Holtz hours.

How frikkin fantastic is that..???

Whole hours dedicated to all things Ranger and Tim Holtz...

I will only be presenting every couple of months due to my already mega workload, but you can be guaranteed that I will make the most of it for you. Don't panic and think that is the only time you will be able to see the Ranger products, they will still be included in regular hours as well.

QVC have given a bit of a shake up to their guest presenters, and I think it is fantastic. Their will be five of us

Amy Shaw
Marion Emberson
Kirsty Wiseman
Unfortunately I don't know the textile ladies name...oops
And little old me

all with our own special brand of knowledge and expertise. It really makes a difference when you know the presenters totally have their heart behind a product doesn't it.

My first shows will be on Sept 13th at 2pm and 10pm... I do hope you will come and join me.!!!

People often ask if Tim and I are really as friendly as we seem, and the answer is yes, I am sort of like a big sister that he can tease and make loads of fun at. We just spend most of our time together, whether it is shopping or working, just laughing all the time.
I thought I would share a photo of something precious to me that is hanging in my studio, and has been there for 6 yrs would you believe.

Ha ha how funny is that.??

Many moons ago we were all demoing at a big show and decided to have a little competition between us. You had to make a wooden door hanger for the person nominated to you. I was Tim's recipient... Everyone was getting extremely jealous, but I knew the reality...My hanger would be the worst as he would have to make it in the very few spare minutes between demoing and being mobbed by his adoring fans.

And I was right..!!!

The theme of the hanger is a very funny in joke between the pair of us, and still makes me laugh when I look at it. So much so, that in the Ranger family I am not usually referred to as Dyan, Dylan or even your Art journaling highness, which I feel is more befitting..!!! lmao  No...I am in fact referred to as Monkey.!! Yup you heard me correctly...Monkey.!!!! lol

and by the way, that brown wizended up object hanging from it is, or rather was, the original banana he tied in place in October 2005. How frikkin ace is that, that the original banana is still there. Despite the many attempts of people in my studio, being helpful and tidying it away to the bin, resulting in me rummaging through to retrieve it. And there it will stay, if only wind him up and set him off in giggles every time he visits..!!!

Thought I would show you some of my canvas boards I made at CHA.

And you really need to hop over to newest Dylusions DT member, Kaz's blog to see this creation. Fabulous piece of work.  You can see she completely fits in, lol

Enjoy xx
