CHA 2014

I got invited to go to the Cha Conference and Trade Show in Anaheim and hang with with my Therm O Web friends! It was so much fun! (Cha=Craft & Hobby Association) The entire convention center was filled with beautiful paper crafting products, samples, displays, and inspiration!

I was most excited about meeting my friend, Julia from Therm O Web, in person. We have known each other online for quite some time – so this was a real treat! She is such a sweetie! I love Therm O Web! I couldn’t live with out their products!!

This is the Therm O Web display. I came away with some fun goodies – can’t wait to use the Glitter Dust spray on some Valentine projects!!

I was also thrilled to meet Lori Whitlock who designs for Echo Park Paper Company and whose designs are part of Riley Blake Fabrics!

I was hoping to meet up with Carina Gardner who I met at Sewing Summit, but she had already flown home. Here papers are beautiful – also from Echo Park and also a Riley Blake Fabric Designer.

I was totally thrilled to meet the Duck Tape people and make my own Duck Tape bracelet! I think my kids helped pay for their display 🙂

I loved the Pebbles display (Pebbles in my Pocket). They had such cute, inspiring projects on display. I love this Valentine banner with photos – I gotta make one of these!

More cute Valentine crafts!

I love this cluster of paper daisies with doily accents.

Love this banner with the sheet music layered with doilies and patterned paper!

I can’t remember whose display this is, but it’s an entire wall shelf unit made with wood crates – genius!

I thought this was s cute take on a display board only its a door!

I loved the Basic Grey display – they have super cute papers!

I was so excited to meet Rachel Brenchley who is the creative gal behind their designs! Of course I love Basic Grey because there designes can be found in fabric too!!
