CHA Glimpses #5....Dum, Dum, Da-Dum, Dum...

May the scrapbooking force be with you! Creative Imaginations is coming out with a Star Wars Collection and I ordered the whole set. It won't ship until June, in fact they only had prototypes at the show, but its great!

This is the full collection!

These are the chipboard stickers.

The paper will be accented with foil.

Rub-ons...

Brads!

There are also something called wall rub-ons. I'm sure that's not the technical term, but anyhow. They can be added to your wall as home decor!

Also, 2 mini scrapbook kits.

CHA Glimpses #3 - Just the Basics

Ok, I'm swamped today, but here's your next sneak peak as promised...from Basic Grey. Basic Grey released 4 collection at the show....

Porcelain is shipping in February and is a lovely watercolor-feel collection. Great for litte girls, wedding, spring & mother's day!

Marrakech is also shipping in February and has a brigther pallet. Inspired by Morrocco, look for elephant & peacock motifs. Beautiful!

Apparently Lime Rickey is a type of soda pop but I've never had it so I'll trust Basic Grey. This is the most vibrantly bright collection I've seen in ages and its captivating! Ships in April.

Wisteria is another watercolor-feel collection with violet & blue hues...also great for mother's day & the spring. Will ship in April.

More glimpses tomorrow!

Glimpses from CHA #2...Feelin' a bit Sassy

I just love Sassafras Lass. It's modern and vintage all at the same time. So ecclectic and so fun to work with. Don't let the bold prints dissuade you. You can make really lovely layout with their prints!

Vintage Yummy is Shipping in mid February.

This annimated display was part of the booth. Isn't if fun?!?

Bungle Jungle is shipping in mid March & is a lovely zoo print but versatile enough for boys!

Check out the Sassafras Lass blog for up close photos of the papers and the embellishments. I've also ordered coordinating brads & paper whimsies. And I reordered the dear and owl prints from our last collections.

Also, do me a favor...check out the Anthem Collection and let me know what you think. I couldn't decide at the show. Post your reaction to it and let me know if we should get it or not...

Basic Grey sneak peeks tomorrow...

Glimpses of CHA #1

Ok everyone. Here are some photos from CHA. I was remiss and really didn't take any photos until the last day, but I will post what I have over the course of the next week, so stay tuned each day!

Here's a few shots of what I've ordered from My Mind's Eye. This is shipping next week so it will definately be one of the first arrivals.

Penny Lane Collection

Penny Lane sample layout (using those transparencies that I never know what to do with ;-) and a sample card.


One color scheme of Bella Bella, another coming in blues...

One color scheme of Bloom & Grow, one more coming.

Also, I have several suprises comming from My Mind's Eye, but you'll have to come in and see those when they get here....

Here we are being evacuated from the convention center during a fire alarm. It was a false alarm but it was nice to get some fresh air....

& here's Pepper inspecting the catalogs and investigating purchases after a long day at the show...

More to come tomorrow.
