As Promised...... CHA!!!

Hello!

I promised you all some pictures from CHA. Here are a few of the highlights from the trip that I had.

Welcome to CHA at the Anaheim Convention Center! If you walked the entire show floor it was eight miles long!!! Over half of the show floor was Scrapbooking and Paper Crafts! WOW!

The picture was taken at dusk, so that is why it is a bit blue looking.

I was fortunate to meet a few Scrap-celebs during my travels about. It was an honor to meet them and talk to them about the industry. Everyone was so nice about talking to a mere stranger and having a picture taken.

Here I am with Tim Holtz after he made me an Art Trading Card. A picture and an ATC! What more could a girl want!!

I met Ali Edwards of "Life Artist" fame while we were in line for a coat check for a Suze Orman special function. I mentioned that Ali and I were headed to a Suze Orman special fuction. Here I am with Suze Orman after she signed one of my books of hers. She was a very powerful and inspirational speaker. Heidi Swapp was very sweet and we chatted about which products of hers would be best to bring into the store. She was focused on seeing a small retailer succeed with her products which was refreshing.

My last celeb picture for you all is of me and Carol Duvall. She and I are at California Disney after she was awarded a lifetime acheivement award. I grew up watching her shows and it was an honor to actually meet her in person.

So there you have it. My brushes with scrap fame and celebrities! It was an honor to meet and chat with each and every one of these inspiring people. I thank them for the time they took out of their busy lives for me.
