Highlights from CHA....

(me in my normal state! ~Especially after 3, yes 3 glasses of wine!)

Event of the evening....

A special reception with Scrap in Style TV. Met some really cool chicas there. Adrienne Looman (left), http://www.acolorfulhouse.typepad.com/ . Bluegrass Publishing is publishing her book on doodling which releases in November!

Jo-Anne (right),http://www.bebebloometje.blogspot.com/. She lives in the Netherlands and had the COOLEST shoes of all....they were sandles for a wedding with fake diamonds...wish I had a pic of that! She totally rocked! I must email her about those shoes!
and Chicago.....

Lunch @ Bubba Gumps Shrimp Co. over @ Navy Pier...and one little hottie, Joe! He is from Ireland. I really did get to meet some great international people this trip! I kept him blushing...Oh, I know you are NOT surprised, Sarah! Doesn't he have the sweetest dimples????

The Show Floor....

The Paper Elements gals stole my heart with their 80lb paper--dual sided, linen textured! MMMMM.....I could just eat it up. It reminds me of wallpaper. What interior designer doesn't love that? Missed getting a pix with Lora, who was such a funky gal too! She left for the day, but I did get my cousin Andrea's look alike to pose (left)....no kidding, I will have to find a pic of 'Annie peaches' just to prove it! OH and Lora and I both thought we looked familiar to each other...how funny is that? I know we have met somewhere, I just wish I knew where!

More international gals....

Mia (left), and Jessika (right), are sisters who are from Sweden! They were the BOMB! So cute and fun to chat with too! I ran into them across the convention center and posed for pix in the DieCuts with a View booth. I grabbed one of the DCWV gals to take our pix! How fun it was! I gotta get to Sweden one day!

I do have so much more to show and tell, but I must put 'er to bed now!

Y'all have fun now!
