Where scrapbooking means business.
I couldn’t go to CHA Summer 2012 without visiting Little Yellow Bicycle!
That’s me, Stephanie, on the right. On the left is Sharon Kropp, the owner of Little Yellow Bicycle. In the middle is my friend Kathryn, who taught classes at the local scrapbook store I worked at years ago. She is assisting at the show and does other work for Little Yellow Bicycle, too. While CHA is a lot of hard work, it also often comes with the fun of running into old friends. [Read more...]
I knew Julie Fei-Fan Balzer would be doing make-and-takes with her new products on Tuesday and didn’t want to miss it. Luckily, I made it to The Crafter’s Workshop booth while she was still there. Jennifer Wilson and I made lovely canvas necklaces with Julie!
Since it was my first CHA show, I was excited to get the chance to meet some of my favorite celebrity scrapbookers in person.
The first booth I stopped at was the display for American Crafts’ Amy Tangerine line, and Amy Tan graciously agreed to pose with her awesome wall art.
The Canvas Corp booth is always full of an array of useful basics for crafters of all kinds, but a few new things stood at CHA Summer 2012.
Flowers are huge right now and Canvas Corp’s line of popular canvas rosette flowers has been added onto with a new white flower, perfect for coloring with whatever ink you have on hand!
Glitz is debuting four new lines at CHA Summer. The new releases include Cashmere Dame (brights with black), Yours Truly (brights with grey and navy), Hello Friend (pink) and Joyeux Noel (muted red and green).
These lovely giant rhinestoes (yes, giant rhinestones!) come from their “Yours Truly” line, and have an MSRP of $4.50.
