CHA Part 2

Hi there. Sorry, for delay on my post for CHA. Thursday night, I had another cyst burst that pretty much put me in so much pain that all I can do just laid down on the sofa. And, I didn't have my post ready or scheduled. Luckily, when I was incapacitate I have this warm puppy that like to snuggle with me. Except when he wants to play! He is light, but when he bounced and landed on my stomach, he kind of took my breath away. :)

Let's get on with the CHA report, shall we. Now, there are tons and tons of booths to cover and I did take tons of pictures, but I am sure many of you already seen lots of sneak peek from other site. So, I'll just  highlight my favorite collections.

First up,  This & That and Note To Self collection from Echo Park. Gorgeous papers! You can click on any of the pics to view it in larger size.


I love, love, love Ali Edwards stamps for Technique Tuesday. Love her unique style and the stamps aimed at both card makers and scrapbookers. 



The layovers from Hambly are so cool! On my wish list.


My Mind's Eye 6x6 paper pads and fab stamps. Love that their stamps only cost $5.99 a set. Gorgeous + reasonably priced = awesomess!!


Cute display at Paper Smooches.



Pebbles.

Beautiful paper pad from Studio Calico Take Note collection. Gorgeous overload! Right underneath it are some layout samples that were on display at their booth.



Card samples display at Penny Black booth, where I met the lovely & talented Elizabeth Allan who designs for Penny Black.


This one pic, I just had to share! This beautiful peacock was on display at DCWV booth and yes, people, it made of papers!! It's my favorite booth for their awesome display. They also have parrot, toucan, etc. Even the tree was made of paper leaves. Simply gorgeous!!



Fancy Pants collection.

Now, I know many people love Basic Grey and I wasn't one of them. Until.... I saw their newest collection. This one below is from their Konnichiwa collection. Gorgeousness!!


Basic Grey Konnichiwa stamps.

Basic Grey Pb&j collection. 
So, which one is your favorite? All that I shown here... I like them all. Hard to choose. Now that I have enable you and make your wish list longer, let me share some more fun pics of the lovely peeps I met. BTW, Tori Spelling & Vanna White was there, too and I completely miss them. Things a bit crazy on the last day, so I totally missed Tori. 






From top left: With Kelly Purkey, Elizabeth Allan, Kim Kesti, Kelly from Paper Crafts, at Paper Crafts meet & greet with Teri, Stephanie Washburn, Laurel Beard & Michelle Gross, Windy  Robinson, & Heidi Van Laar.

I would do more comprehensive report, but Ii kind of short of time. I still have tons of things to do for my Indonesia trip. Hopefully these pics help satisfy your CHA curiosity and I hope next time I can meet many  more of my online friends. Thank you all so much for stopping by here. Come back tomorrow for Some Odd Girls latest releases. Cheers.....
