Greetings from Orlando (a VERY hot Orlando)! Day 3 at CHA was another amazing day looking at new products, catching up with friends and meeting some new ones too (did we mention it is a little warm here?). We have seen some great new trends including more of our favourites such as monsters, smaller scaled designs for cardmakers, lots of adorable houses and some GORGEOUS new holiday lines. It will be an exciting fall and winter for all! Here are some more photos from today.

My greatest challenge it time. I can rarely sit down for long enough to crank out a page or too. I am really slow scrapbooker and I deliberate over the details for hours!!!
Oh, you must be in paper crafting heaven, all those beautiful new designs, I would have to wear a bib for the entire show I would be drooling so much(eww, sorry for that mental picture,lol)
cheers

Want! Want! I don't have any embossing or die cutting machine... I just use my stylus or Xacto knife. I'd find a place for it, too!
