Talk about making you feel like you were there. The pictures were so good and made me want to get off the computer and go to work in my own little craft corner of the world.
Thank you so much for sharing the weekend with us. It was a visual treat.
Wow Ranger! What fun to host so many students, all having an awesome time, I’m sure! Some day I hope to make it there myself! Lynn B

Congratulations t all! the students, the staff and the teachers! I am curious to learn some of those techniques , if not all of them! The texturized dimensionnals, I want to try that!
Day 3 looks fabulous, too. So many wonderful techniques: I plan to look them all up on the blog. Especially the splattering. Have a safe trip home, Mr Holtz.:>]
Ohhh I want to come play too! How about doing a class on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina?? LOL
Looks like an amazing experience. I’ll be there in my dreams!
Great stuff! Just looking at the photos gives me ideas
What a fab weekend! I’ve been scrapping at home – not quite as fun but still playing with Crackle paints, distress inks and grungeboard!
Looks like everyone is having a good time. It must be fun to play with all of the products. The Dimensional Pearls are new to me and look beautiful.
What fun! Now, I’m off to find my dimensional pearls…..

Had computer posting problems yesterday but seems to be working today.
Adirondack colors have been my favorites since day one finding ranger products then Distress inks. Ranger U looks like a lot of fun where not only do you learn but you get to get inky fingers! stamping sue
still jealous …..
How fun. I hope that someday I have the opportunity to attend Ranger U!
Charmaine
I’m thinking ONLINE Ranger U……
The splatter look is very intriguing…also need to look into that frosted glass
Patti…I loved every second of Ranger U! Thanks SO much for all your hard work. It was a privilege to be there!
I would love to be an assistant the next time you come to LA Calif, pretty please?!!!
With cherries on top?!!!
You all looked like you had a ball!!! Love to learn from you!
Thanks for sharing even if it is only a glimpse of what is to be!!! hehehe
Leonie
love this! I would love to go to Ranger U.
Adirondack inks…love those!!! Can’t find the color washes for sale anywhere. Congratulations to all the graduates and Ranger staff for doing a marvelously messy oh-so-artistic job! The photos, products, projects and people (the popular 4 p’s) look so fantastic. Instead of Ranger U my name for you will be Lucky U from now on.
Wow! It would be my dream come true to be able to attend one of your ranger U classes. It looks like everyone had a ball but also learned a lot.
Maybe you could show some videos on some of your techniques for the rest of us that could not attend.
Everyone looks like that had a marvelous time! Lovely pieces of art. And Sam is a hoot! Thank you so much for sharing with those of us who are not able to attend.
