I'm back from CHA and I had a blast! It was fun to connect with so many wonderful friends and to make some new ones too. I tell ya, the scrapbooking community is such a warm and wonderful group of people. I'm thrilled to be part of it! And of course there were LOTS of fabulous new scrapbooking products to see. Trends I noticed: circus themed papers and embellishments (I'm using some of them right now!), mustaches (huh??), more flowers and vintage-themed papers (love it all!), trinkets galore, banners (yep, they're still very in apparently), and lots of altered dress forms. I saw many "must haves" that I can't wait to get my hands on. Though I don't think I can see myself adding mustaches to my scrapbook pages. Unless I can get my hubby to grow a mustache. Hmmmmmmm.
Here is one of the layouts I made for the Prima booth. This is from the new Celebrate line. I crocheted around the edge and added some Prima lace, then I created a little patchwork background.
As I mentioned above, altered dress forms were very popular at CHA. I spotted them in several different booths. Prima had several life-sized dress forms adorned with all the beautiful new papers and flowers. GORGEOUS!! I didn't know that altered dress forms were going to be so popular when I made this one for the Prima booth:
I used the new Prima laces to make the skirt. I ADORE the new Prima flowers, lace and trinkets:
I have a lot more to share in the coming weeks!
