CHA Winter 2012 | Trendspotting at Authentique
February 2, 2012 By 2 Comments
Authentique introduced four new lines at the CHA Winter 2012 show: Genuine, Loyal, Delightful, and Gathering. It was Genuine that most caught my eye as an example of a new trend that we saw emerge at this show – denim!
Little hints of denim are popping up here and there in this season’s releases (the denim buttons in Indigo Bleu by Pink Paislee are another great example), and with the way trends build in this industry I expect that we’ll be seeing a lot more of it at the 2012 summer show.

Simple Scrapbooks expanded its line of easy memory-keeping products at CHA Winter 2012 with the introduction of 6″ x 8″ Mix and Match albums.
This smaller format album and matching page protectors are compatible with Simple Stories’ existing line of cut-out elements (full 12×12 sheets will, of course, need to be trimmed down to work), and the company has also introduced a new line of 6×8 pages made specifically for the new new albums.
There are also new pocket pages in a variety of sizes and styles from 12×12 to 6×8 to smaller sizes designed to fit in Simple Stories pocket pages.
