It’s the 3 year anniversary of the Dirty Dozen, and all of us past and present are doing challenges through next week! Make sure to check it out HERE! Fun!!!!

So here are some more CHA pic’s and people pic’s! This first one was one of the display boards over at Hampton Arts! OOOOH NOW you know why I wanted to hurry and show you my samples! I was just thrilled to see that I had almost a whole display board to myself! I had no idea the samples I was making were for CHA! Very cool! Trudee had one up there too!

           Saturday morning at the PaperCrafts booth! Here’s a picture of Michele and I with Stacy Croninger and Cath Edvalson! They are both SOOOO sweet!!! We also picked ourselves up a copy of the newest CardCreations that me, Michele and Julia are in! So fun!

           Here’s a pic of the “gang” lol….sans Julia… Me, Michele and T hangin’ out at the Hyatt!

   Here’s another one of us with Heather Nichols and Michele Wooderson. Such a blast! Sweet Tashers (Natasha Trupp) Took our pic!

Here we have the INCREDIBLE new Halloween stuff that Making Memories is coming out with! What you can’t see…there is a package of brads that has bats, moons, OMGOSH sooo cute!

Here is a picture of the DRG display! They do all these magazines! I had to take a picture of it because the “covergirl” of the newest GiftMaker is Michele Boyer!! WAHOO!!! Her cover is on the bottom left!!

Hope your still enjoying all these pics! Have a great rest of the afternoon! Thanks so much for stopping by!

They also have little tape runner rubon’s! They are so cute! I cannot wait to get my hands on this!

Here are some pictures of the new Martha Stewart line! I am in SO MUCH trouble when this gets to Michaels! I don’t know why I didn’t get a picture of it, but she is also coming out with STUNNING leaf stickers and more for Autumn!

I will be back again later! I will cut off the giveaway at about 1 o’clock mountain time and announce the winners! Thanks for stopping by!! HUGS!!!!

HI!! Hope you had a wonderful weekend!!! We had such a riot! There were the most beautiful display’s, GORGEOUS new products, tons of people to meet, so many fun new companies I hadn’t even heard of!  This convention center was HUGE!! People say the summer trade show is smaller than the winter…WOW! That is hard to believe! I can’t believe I am already home though! I hate goodbye’s! It’s sure nice to be home with my boys though!

Friday night my friend Michele and her family took me downtown for some Chicago Deep Dish pizza! YUUUMMMYYY!! Chicago (well at least the parts I saw) is absolutely gorgeous!  We do NOT have a big city at all, so I was just in awe of all the tall buildings! I loved it there! After dinner we went to a little walkway area along Lake Michigan (I kept calling it the Ocean! lol) It was getting pretty dark, but I got that fun picture! (the one at the top) I hope you enjoy!! I will be back later this afternoon to draw a winner for my giveaway! WAHOO!!! I’ll be posting more CHA pictures as I can get them all on my computer and get caught back up! Thank you so much for stopping by!!

These are some of the ADORABLE samples at Doodlebug! Did you notice the sequin pumpkin on the bottom shelf! SO CUTE!! There was SO MUCH new Halloween out and I am just a SUCKER for it! I love it! I cannot WAIT to get my hands on all my new goodies! lol!
