What a wonderful show! It’s really exciting to be here and so far we have seen quite a few gems that we can’t wait to share with you. We’ll show you a few of them tonight…
First up is the new Slice from Making Memories! Not only is it Pink, but it is exclusive to the local scrapbook store. That’s a big, “Hooray” for Making Memories!
We couldn’t resist this little beauty so we have order a few just for you! The added bonus is this Slice comes with TWO cartage's and a percentage of the proceeds will be donated to the Susan G Colman foundation. Since we only ordered a limited supply we are taking pre-orders for you. If you would like to reserve one of these new Slices before they are gone, you can do it HERE.
Making Memories has the new Slices in their warehouse and will begin shipping in only two weeks! Oh happy day!
Just when we thought that Sassafras Lass had outdone themselves, we found out that they still had so much more in them. The new releases are so much more than we expected. Amplify has a very masculine feel with fun colors and geometric patterns. Sweet Marmalade is beautiful line filled with a mix of classic Sassafras imagery and colors. Monstrosity is hilarious with funny cartoon monsters that are absolutely adorable. Of course all of the lines come with incredible embellishments including Paper Whimsies, Felties and stamps.
We were so excited about My Little Shoebox’s last release that we could not wait to see what they came up with for this show. Of course, they did not disappoint. Robots Unplugged is the perfect line for all of the boys in your life. Imagine a Forest is filled with happy forest images. Little Ladies is a super cute line that will be perfect for the little girls and girlfriends alike. One of our favorite items from My Little Shoebox, however, are the mini alphabet stickers. They come in practically every color you can imagine. With over 460 letters per pack, you are sure to have exactly what you need for any project.
Attention all of you vintage lovers! Graphic 45 has some yummy new lines for you. Domestic Goddess and Renaissance Faire are incredible new lines that have all of the gorgeous, vibrant colors that Graphic 45 is known for. But, if you can believe it, Christmas is almost here (or so you would think after spending a day at this show). Christmas Past is a gorgeous line of great vintage Christmas images and classic colors. The best news is that you will be able to pick up the whole Christmas Past collection in one convenient pack! Yes, Graphic 45 is now selling paper packs and we will have some ready for you to scoop up.
We can always tell when a product has struck a chord when we all agree that we just have to purchase everything in the booth! That’s exactly what happened when we walked into the Crate Paper booth today. All four of their new collections, Season, Cottage, Bliss, and North Pole, are filled with lovely whimsical images and incredibly lively colors. We cannot wait to get our hands on these goodies and we know that you will feel the same way!
Okay, that's a little glimpse into day one, but believe us when we tell you we saw a whole lot more and promise to share more with you later. For now it's off to bed for a good nights rest! Chat with ya tomorrow!
Thanks for the inside view of CHA! Can't wait to see more. :D
