Love Day

I know this is late but... For the few weeks before Love day Starbucks had cups in honor of Valentines. Love it!!

I love making this card from an app called Red Stamp. It's a photo card for any occasion. It's pretty cool.
I also created one using a freebie and can't remember from where. I totally forgot to write it down. Will post it if I find it.
It was during the week and we both had work. So we just had a quiet dinner at home and ordered dessert to go from BJs called the Pazookies. It's basically a cookie with ice cream. It was our first time. We've made our own before and I think I like ours better. This one was too doughy. It was a nice quiet evening without the busyness in the restaurants.
Hope everyone had a great Love Day.


CHA winter | Girls night out

Our first night was such a blast! It was great to be out. Lisa & I met Patti, Nidia & Anne at House of Blues for dinner and drinks. After dinner we went to the outside bar at Downtown Disney for more drinks. It was so fun talking and laughing our heads off. Hilarious!

more from CHAW 2012

Here are more pictures from CHA (SOOC).  There's so much inspiration, yummy products and wonderful people we got to see.


Love Pink Paislee!   I love their pre made tags.  Perfection.  No work.  It's done for you.



My favorite wood letters you can customize....Paint, inks and my have..glimmer mist it.



Love this quote.  My Big Ideas had some quotes framed at their booths.


I've known this product for a while now.  It's the Flip Pal- a portable scanner.  So glad I was able to check it out in person and ask questions about it.  Love it! It's a great tool if you are memory keeper, scrapbooker and genealogists.  You can take it anywhere.  They have this software where you can seamlessly stitch a photo together no matter what size.  It's pretty cool.


The Silhouette is my favorite die cut machine.  I've had mine for a couple years now but since Project Life from Becky Higgins has taken by storm so has the Silhouette.  People have been using to include Silhouette images into their albums.  Ali Edwards also include a tutorial to use her png files onto Silhouette.  It's so AWESOME!





Hambly....love them!!  Check out their washi tapes....the camera one is my have.



Chevron transparency...swoon.  Chevron is big!  I'd say that's the pattern of the show this year.


We also were able to visit Teresa Collins.  Love her!
Beautiful and classic collections.  Everyday moments...love it!  Perfect for my PL.




Doesn't she look awesome?!   She's so sweet and genuine.  Love chatting with her.  We also got her to autograph her Signature Series book.  Beautiful projects.


Oh my.... SIMPLE STORIES collection Mix and Match THIS AND THAT mini album.  Hello...Finally people!  I've been wanting a book like this with those different page protectors in a d ring binder.  I'm so getting these!










Fancy Pants collections are so beautiful.  Great summer collections are a must have for my photos for the summer.



The great news too in this show was that the members from HOF 3 which are no longer around debuted their collections.  Along with Heidi Swapp big reveal....Rhonna and Janet debuted their collections.  Rhonna's debut of her collection with My Minds Eye.  So love her and her work.  So there's no disappointment in her new collection.  







Here's Janet Hopkins collection with Bazzill....WAYFARER.  Beautiful.





Wescott and drawings and prizes during the show plus they were giving out champagne.  Oh we definitely took advantage of this.  It made it even more fun for some bubbly while perusing the show. 




We were also able to meet Jenni Bowlin.  So sweet.




We also got a chance to chat with Elizabeth Kartchner.  Such a sweet lady and beautiful collections.  Lovin' her stamp, ruffle paper and ready made sewed banners.

Here we are with Stacy Julian.   
 Some say they are Twins.... these ladies are so inspirational.



Ali Edwards...So exciting to meet and chat with her!!  What an inspiration.

We also ran into Noelle and her hubby Izzy from Paperclipping at the Prima booth.  I love listening to their podcast where they have their frequent guest like Ali Edwards, Ana Cabrera, Stacy Julian and other special guests where they talk about scrapbooking.  I love listening to them on my long drive home from work.



At the Prima Booth....their mixed media album was so beautiful!!  Can't wait to get my hands on it.



 Beignets at Jazz Kitchen in Downtown Disney.  Delish!
