I won this at CHA!

Here is one of the goodies I brought home from CHA.  I won this from a drawing!  I was sooo excited until my good friend Michelle won her Gypsy & Cuttlebug from the Provo Craft booth!  lol  I still love my new tape glider but a new Gypsy or Cuttlebug would of been nice too!  I have so many other wonderful things that I received from CHA I can't complain.  I can't wait to start getting my orders of new product...especially the new ribbon.  I ordered a ton of the new flower ribbon that is so popular right now.  I will post a few more pictures tomorrow of some of my new items.

Dear Lizzy!    She looked so beautiful, her booth was gorgeous & she was soo sweet!  Jody and I love her products!  Wish we could of placed an order with her, all of her new products are beautiful!  I brought my copy of  Lizzy's book  "52 More Scrapbooking Challenges"  and Lizzy was kind enough to write me a note in it! 

I am leaving at 7:30 a.m tomorrow to go back to CHA for...

another visit with Tim!  Actually I have a few more orders to place, a few booths I missed and

a few more make n takes wouldn't hurt.  I rested up today so I am ready for some FUN~

I have 60 pictures from CHA so far & this is my favorite.  If you

belong to my Private Site that is where I posted most of them.. you gotta check it out~

CHA day 1

Just got back at 6:30 from day one of CHA fun.  Cheryl and I ate soo much food I don't think I need to eat for a few days.  The reception was awesome!  The copic class was nice too, but I wish the class was longer so we would of had more time to learn a few more tricks.  I plan to take the Intermediate Certification class in October, I guess its the "part-2" class. (new this year)  After that class I should be ready to go! (fingers crossed)  We leave tomorrow morning at 8:30 for day 2.  We did get some fun pictures today, I'll post some tomorrow but most of them will be on my private site.  Contact me if you want to have access to that site.  I have to take a picture of all my goodies from today!

Copic Certification Class Tomorrow

Finally... after wanting to take this class for so long the day has finally came.  Tomorrow my friend Cheryl and I get our certification.  We will be the only ones certified in our city.  I already have a few areas booked as to where I will eventually teach classes.  That's after I get more practice in and know exactly what I am doing.  I am guessing sometime in October, I'll be teaching at Hobby Lobby and our Local Museum.

After our class we are off to a reception at the CHA where we will be enjoying a cocktail or two, eating, and hanging with many familiar names and faces.  I may be speechless during this time, just trying to figure out who is who.  I am sure Cheryl will know many since she is a member of many design teams and guest designs on blogs.  Oh yeah, check out her blog. Cheryl's Blog you may already be a member, if not be sure to add yourself to her blog.  She is very talented and her cards are beautiful.

Tuesday there are 5 of us leaving for the day at CHA... 4 wonderful women are joining me for the day.  I wanted to share this great experience with women who I truly appreciate having in my life, they also are friends of mine through and through.  I can't wait to get some pictures of us this week. 

Well I have a hair and nail appointment I gotta get ready for.

So excited!

I just registered my employees for the CHA and received our express pass for CHA!  I am soooo excited.  One of my best friends and I are attending the reception Monday night after our Copic Certification class.  It's going to be a long day but well worth it.  Actually it's going to be a long week but an awesome experience, I already marked my calendar for next years event.  Tim Holtz here we come!
