Fab trip to CHA!
Isn't it annoying when you go on a great trip and think you are taking lots of pictures only to discover once you are home that you hardly took any pictures? Well that's what happened when we went to CHA. But I did manage to get some pictures, so I'll share the highlights of our trip.
Crystal, Jennie (Design Team) and Diana (Project Kit Designer) all joined me on the trip. The night before CHA we all went to Wicked in Hollywood. FANTASTIC show - we all highly recommend it.
Now onto the show highlights.
We have so many fun things planned for the next several months of kits after attending the trade show. Here are a few things you can look forward to playing with over the next few months:
Heidi Swapp. We loved some of the paper, the clear overlays, the felt and just about everything else too! Crys and I talked to Heidi for a bit and got a picture.
Making Memories has added to their fabulous Noteworthy line. Gorgeous! They also have a delightful new travel line that we will be using in a Travel Journal Project kit this summer.
October Afternoon has 2 new terrific lines out. We loved both of them! They also have alpha stickers in 2 great fonts and chipboard albums with office style grids lines - too hard to resist!
Tinkering Ink. They had 4 new lines come out and my favorite thing about them is that one side is the typical bold Tinkering Ink pattern and the reverse side of the paper is a smaller and less bold pattern. I think we only ended up getting 1 Tinkering Ink paper.
My favorite find at the TI booth was their new Peek A Boo Albums - its' a mix of chipboard and acrylic with windows mixed in. We've ordered several of these to use in our Travel Journal Project kit along with the Making Memories Travel line.
Scenic Route. Loving the new Grafton line! We will be mixing a few of these papers with the Cosmo Cricket Get Happy line for a very happy kit in the near future.
While at the Scenic Route booth I'm pretty sure I found a few of Nicole's (our DT member) layouts in the booth. Am I right Nicole?
Loved all of the new thickers at American Crafts!
Teresa Collins has a new line of products and they were all very nice. Especially loved this one:
Cosmo Cricket. Loved the Get Happy line and the blackboard alphas and albums are terrific.
Pink Paislee. This is a brand new company that really has beautiful product. We placed a pre-show order with them for our March kit and it already here! Here is 1 layout using some of the paper you can play with in the very near future!
The Paper Trunk, another new company, had this adorable spinning mini album. The top portion spins and reveals piece of the album from the second layer. Very creative!
Those are the highlights. Hope you've enjoyed them. I'll be posting more info on upcoming kits soon!
