I'm away at CHA

I wanted to let all you wonderful customers know that I am currently in Anaheim at CHA. I will be shipping all orders upon my return home on Thursday, February 1st. I thank you for your patience and look forward to sharing pictures at that time. Being that I do not have my own laptop (yes, I am in the dark ages - LOL) I haven't been able to update this information until now. Prepping to get here was an absolute mad scramble, but I'm thrilled to be here and taking note of the awesome new products as well as learning new ways of using the "old". OK, old can mean six months or a year - LOL. Funny how that can be considered old.

Some fun observations:

I LOVE the new We R Memory Keepers hardware kits!!!! OH WOW!!! They have the most amazing product included and for a VERY reasonable price. 300 pieces for less than $20. Colors silver, pewter, brass and copper!!!! YUM, YUM, YUM.

I have discovered some of the most amazing papers! Canvas, galvanized, fabulous patterns!!! OK - typing on Mona Lisa's laptop is a new experience and so I'm not being very wordy - LOL!

Chipboard - every shape, size, color, texture imaginable. MANY different purses, books, journals, recipe boxes - if you can imagine it, I do believe they have it!

The most amazing craftmanship I have seen is in the Accucut booth. I can hardly wait to share the photos of the dress they created out of diecuts!!! WOW, WOW, WOW - it is covered in little layers of flowers, that sparkle and shimmer. The workmanship on this item is outstanding!!!

Working with the creators of the Create-a-cut has been fabulous. I have learned SO, SO much. I can hardly wait to share pictures of the amazing flowers you can create with the different blade edges. Also the ability to weave and braid cuts and strips of paper has totally got me excited :D

Last but not least - I met Tim Holtz :D What a cutie - his new line of alterable tins produced by Crop In Style to house the Distress Inks is way cute. At the booth they are doing a make 'n take with these awesome little metal tins (that are not yet for sale -insert sad eyes). Hopefully I'll have the time to make one so that I can share it with you all. If nothing else I will share some pics.

Hopefully I'll be able to check back in at some point before returning and share more of the little tidbits I have discovered that I am excited about.

Thanks so much your patience in regards to shipping your packages. They will be shipped as soon as I return. THANK YOU!!!
