Going to CHA!

News Highlights Attending CHA Free Demo the 19th The Greate Yosemite Stamp Escape Memory Box coming! Color of the Year: Emerald! |
Happy New Year! With an extra week between Thanksgiving and Christmas I thought I was really organized. Well, that’s a joke! I guess starting the New Year with a smile is a good thing. I hope you have a happy and healthy year ahead of you. No resolutions will be made here except to look for the latest, most innovative and inspirational products on the market. Melissa and I will leave around noon Saturday, Jan 12, following the Stamp of the Month class. We should make it to Anaheim in time for dinner and a night of rest to gear up for the Winter Craft and Hobby Association Conference. This is our biggest trade show where we get to see the newest releases of stamps, papers, embellishments, etc. I am always on the look-out for new companies, too. We will also be able to visit with all four of our Stamp Escape teachers while there. Melissa and I were talking about scouting out teachers for 2014 while we are there (getting organized, you know). Be sure to check out the class schedule. You only have a day or two at the most to sign up for Melissa’s calendar class. The Stamp of the Month is the 12th and we will be closing at around noon and will not re-open until Wednesday morning, then the 19th we will have our CHA Show and Tell with all of the catalogs and goodies we bring home. Melissa will also demo the Silhouette Cameo that day. Before you buy an electronic die-cutting system, check out the Cameo! You will love the fact that you do not need to buy cartridges, and how user friendly it is. The last Saturday of the month, the 26th, Robin will brighten up your winter with some spring-color themed all occasion cards. Remember, the last Tuesday of every month, you can come in and work on cards for Operation Write Home. Prior to Feb. 1st, we will be shipping general theme cards as well as St. Patrick’s Day and Easter cards. All cards need to be A2 size and NO glitter! We like to send all cards with envelopes and have envelopes that are only 10 cents each available. By the next time I write, we should have lots to share. I wish you good health and happiness in 2013. See you soon! |
