Create and Connect Show

Something a little different today. We have a guest contributor, Sharon! She is back from CHA or as it is known this year - Create and Connect. We have a new vendor, Little B. These little notepads look great for keeping your life and family's life going smoothly; great designs, great reminders!
 


What would CHA be without a little new goodness from Tim Holtz, Ranger, and Stampers Anonymous. Here are some samples from Tim's booth. Along with a great holiday configuration frame.
  
 
On YouTube there is a fantastic video of Tim demonstrating his new Distressed Glitter. The buzz has been great for this glitter because it is so easy to alter/add color. Click on the arrow to see the demo!
 
 
 
OK, I'm guessing here that these dies are from Penny Black, one of the new companies entering the die wars
 
Guessing again, Dyan Reaveley is my choice on these new stamps for Halloween. I saw a video of her new ink pad - a blank pad that you can customize with her spray inks. Dyan also has a new smaller size, about 5x7, Art Journal out.
 
Wendy Vecchi is featuring new Art Parts and a new line of Archival Inks that has colors that coordinate with Ranger's Distressed Inks but are new. Sharon loved the colors and ordered them all!
 
New Prima Paper Doll Stamps!
 
I'm thinking this is from one of the classes Sharon took before CHA began. Ranger workshop, sure to be on display in the store come this weekend!
I'm not sure who this is, but her project looks just like Sharon's canvas above.
 
Well, this is our first glimpse of Summer CHA 2013. Just know this is the TIP of our little iceberg. I may have to stop in tomorrow to see the ''suitcase'' from the show and hear about all the new stuff we have to look forward to.
 
Don't forget, we have our Carnival Stamp Camp on Sunday from 12-5.  We have spaces open, great cards and Chef Mark, our barbeque king, making hot dogs for you. There will be a few more goodies and surprises. Call the store, 716-834-3540 to sign up now.
