CHA was a blast yesterday! I carpooled with Tam from SCS and it was really nice getting to know her better!
CHA is a little different from the trade show- Ranger was not there- so no Tim Holtz….. but there was alot to do and I ran into lots of people- including Beate from SCS, Chrissy D and believe it or not, a lady I met is a stamp store in Kentucky in the past…..we both looked at each other and asked- “how do I know you…..” ? It really is a small world! SO many familiar faces! I completely forgot to take any pictures though…….
I signed up to be in a ‘mystery’ FOCUS group- I rec’d an e-mail asking me to participate after signing up for CHA- and I decided it is really important for manufacturers to have feedback, so I signed up. The group I was in was feedback about packaging for Martha Stewart products for gift boxes. It lasted an hour- and after the hour was over, we were presented with this gift…….
Then I hit the floor and went to town! I usually do not do make and takes until I am able to shop the entire floor, and I usually do not buy alot until I see who has what and check the prices. Not alot was on sale, but to not have to pay shipping and handling….! I was able to make it all the way through Cha and then went back and did a few make and takes.
My haul:
And, Make and Takes:
These stamps were on sale for a great price, so I bought a few extra’s- one for me and one for YOU if you are picked by Random.org
Want it? Just leave a comment and I will pick a winner Monday at 5PM CST
Thanks for stopping by Today-Have a great weekend!
