Besides the new products, one of my favorite parts of CHA is meeting NEW friends and reconnecting with old ones…. Warning this post is photo heavy!
Jim (the Gentleman Crafter), Carol, Joy, Barrie, and myself outside the convention center just before the show srarted…. we were FREEZING!…
My Ranger U buddies…and Jimbug…
Jim, Kathy Orta (from Paper Phenomenon on Ustream) and myself
At the Accucut booth….note the STRIPED tie on Joy….just sayin’….
Jim the Walrus with Diane Reavely. She is a TOTAL kick!!!
At the Sunday get together…hmmm….Jim seems to have made it into most of the photos….
Dinner after Barrie had left for home….boo hoo…most of the rest of us left the next day…
And now for some of my favorite goodies!
Prima
Sizzix flowers
Kaisercraft
Petaloo
and , of course, Graphic 45
As usual, CHA was a sensory overload. My head is exploding with ideas and I can’ wait for the new stuff to start arriving….it is going to be a fun season!
If you weren’t able to join us, I did a CHA review on Ustream today…check it out: Part 1 and Part 2 ( I won’t be moving this one to my blog so you can watch it over on my Ustream channel).
