I am home from CHA and after five hours of walking the floor, I have LOTS of blisters!!! Not very smart to wear those high strappy heeled sandals! I know most of my blog readers would prefer to see product, but all I have is people photos today! I will try to get some of my new favorites tomorrow!
Some of the products I saw and loved: Cosmo Cricket had some cute new lines; loved the sock monkey line by K&Co; adored the new Love, Elsie lines and the new KI - same type of products from both as last show, but even better; one of the new Basic Grey lines is a bit funkier then usual and totally me; the new Daisy D lines are totally different and I think I liked them; lots of new fun stuff from Prima and oh so much more to look at - I barely got started! The new Maya Road stuff was even better in person - can't wait to fondle it all day tomorrow...
And here are some photos. First, this one is for Lynette! Elsie (who looked adorable by the way) could NOT stop talking about you and your work!
This is a photo of some of my favorite OC scrapbook friends - loved seeing them: Annie Adams, Joanne Motta and Laura Bloom. Photo credit for this one goes to Ali Edwards (yes, I asked her to take the shot!) (and you should have seen her cute high heeled orange shoes - she is as tall as me with those puppies on and oh, so stylish!):
Me with my one claim to fame - really enjoyed seeing this piece of artwork enlarged - haha!
And here is my fan club - she asked to take my picture, so I wanted to take her picture taking my picture since it was the first time anyone asked to take my picture (if that all makes sense). Momentous occasion for sure. Wish I knew her name so I could say hi to her. We are best friends now. Maybe she will come visit my blog:
This is me relaxing at the MAMBI booth - they set up a living room area that was so fun - I felt like I was at home and my feet appreciated the break!
OHMYGOODNESS!!! Lynette is going to freak! lol That is so funny. You are too funny Suzy!!! Love it.
Cute photos! Love your CK mag enlarged. And the MAMBI booth is so cool, love your layouts on the walls . . . how cute is that!!!???!!! Oh, how I wish I was there. I wish I could be with Lynette when she looks at this;).

Hi Suzy, Can you get 2 pictures for me? In the Love, Elsie booth, 1 pic of the Claire rubber stamps and 1 picture of the Claire chipboard? Looks like great fun!

I want to know why it is that you don't get a double chin when you pull your real chin back like you are in the photo of you with the larger-than-life magazine cover. You're so lucky. You should be a model.
Wish I was there! I feel like I missed out on a lot of fun.
