CHA Peeps & Fun!

Published by at 2:56 am under CHA Orlando 2009

As promised, here are more pics from our CHA visit in Orlando!   This group seems to include a lot of pics that include myself, but I’m only using those when I didn’t have a pic of the person or persons by themselves in this folder.   I must admit that while I’ve been editing, I’ve had a huge smile on my face throughout … even though I’m not a ‘fan’ of editing.  Just seeing the pics brings on the “happy”!    Just in case you’re wondering if I’ve forgotten to stamp, I definitely plan to post a stamping project by Wednesday.  *grin*

Crafty M&T 475×337Here’s a peek at a Make & Take in action at the Crafty Secrets booth.  Lucky participants made a sweet project with Vicki Chrisman!

CHA Jess shops 400×284

On Friday & Saturday, CHA held its’ first “SuperShow”.  These two days were reserved for retail purchasing, while Monday through Thursday’s CHA show was the tradtional show for wholesale orders from craft and hobby merchants.  This is a brief glimpse of shopping in action at the “Little Windows” booth.  Everyone was watching intently as the new products were demonstrated.  Jessica Witty and Cindy Smith were a part of this crowd.

I’m pretty partial to the talented ladies in this pic.  😉  Are you a fan of Our Craft Lounge stamps and products?  You’ll find the co-founders right here, Joy Kennedy and Cambria Turnbow.   Next are (my daughter) Jessica Witty and Cindy Smith of Emma’s Paperie!

~The SCS booth featured make & takes throughout Friday and Saturday, scheduled in 2-hour segments, featuring a variety of stamping companies.  One of the M&T’s on Friday was sponsored by Lizzie Anne Designs.  What a treat to find Meridith and Tricia, co-founders of Lizzie Anne Designs, assisting crafters during their make & take!

This is my Lizzie Anne Designs make & take from Friday!  Isn’t it a cute design?  This is the only item that I stamped last week … that’s possibly a record!
