Hi Tim
Welcome home! Thank you for sharing this years CHA with us. It is the first year in 4 years that I was unable to attend and I missed you and your booths! I remember the first time I saw you and your booth - I knew nothing really or anyone. You managed to change my whole way of thinking! I was intimidated by the perfection of all the scrapebooking and cardmaking and such things. Of all the measurements and straight lines and the exactness of it all. I was wondering what the heck I was doing at this place, I wasn't an artist or even a scrapebooker. You changed that and rocked my world. I love love love the new distress pens. How could there be anything else in the world of distress ink and then wow!! I love it all but these are awesome. Please Please let me win

sharing the fun...
hey bloggers! well we're all unpacked here and had the weekend to catch up. i appreciate all of the kind comments about the cha recap video, always amazing to see it all from that perspective after the show is over...very humbling. so today i wanted to share a few of my favorite pics from t...
Congratulations to all winners. I think we were all winners just to have had the opportunity to participate in this awesome experience with you. You have the unique capability of teaching to those of us who are, should we say, beginners in this world of "art" to those of you who are artists in your own right. I have always been fearful of art not having the ability to draw a square with a ruler. But as I have learned from you is that there is an artist in everyone of us. There is creativity in everyone of us and it has nothing to do with the exactness of drawing a square with a ruler!!! Thank you again. YOu added much needed joy in a year that has been filled with one bad thing after another.

well bloggers - they say you never know when inspiration hits, and i'm living proof of that. i get asked all of the time what i do if i hit a creative block - my answer is...organize! yep, i think that simply by going through my stash of things and putting things away i discover stuff i didn't...
I love all of it!! The storage boxes are a must!! You have no idea how many things I've tried to get all my inks and stains in one place! (actually you probably do since you design for yourself!) But the Christmas line is the best for sure. Christmas has always been a special holiday in our family. It represents a time for family, warmth, joy and fellowship. The Christmas line brought back very warm memories for me when I first saw them. Thanks for sharing.
