CHA was a blast and I had the opportunity to meet many of the artists I've met through the internet. It was such a fun experience! It's sad though, that on my last day there I lost my video camera, so over half hour of video got lost, which I hoped to share with you. Now I'm on the search to purchase a new one, so pictures is all I have to show for the end of this trip. I picked a few of the many I took. It really was a nice time.
This next one is the Lindy's Stamp Gang (LSG) Booth, where I demoed product at the show.This is me and Diane, Graphic 45 head designer and owner. Their booth was fabulous, and everyone was dresses to match. So super cool.
This is the lovely Teresa Collins who is such a sweet lady. Loved meeting her! She was so nice to all of us and we ended up on her blog that day! She called us "The Queens of YouTube". She's so funny, and pretty too!
And of course I had to take a picture with the man, Tim Holtz. He is just awesome! Love him!This is me and Heidi Swapp. The girl does not age! Her husband is super sweet too.
Melissa Frances and I. She is soo super nice and her booth was gorgeous. Just gorgeous stuff!This next picture was the one featured on the Teresa Collins Blog. So cool we made it there!
These next ones are me and some of the Lindy's Stamp Gang Design Team. We had a great time together at CHA.
This last picture is me and the LSG girls, Tracey (owner) and Kim, who take care of all your LSG needs. They were great, and we all had a fun experience together. Good times!!!
BTW, Tim Holtz Alterations added to the site for sale today. Check it out http://blitsy.com/rewardsref/index/refer/id/8250/
Great post. Glad you had a good time and were able to enjoy the show. Maybe one day I can attend. LOL. Meanwhile I will sit back and enjoy the pictures and videos.
ReplyDeleteBy the way if you have a chance go to my blog and look at the bib mini I finished. I had to scraplift some of your ideas, but I did mention you and gave you all the credit you deserved. Thanks for sharing yours and inspiring me to make one.

Looks like you guys had a lot of fun! Thanks for sharing your time at CHA. Hopefully one day I will be able to go! =)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had so much fun but I'm sure it was exhausting, as well. It would be so cool to actually meet the people whose name you've been staring at for years on your favorite products.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you lost your camera, but at least it was only 30 minutes of footage.
