This is a very exciting week for scrappers and paper crafters–it’s CHA Week!! The Craft And Hobby Association Summer 2010 Convention and Trade Show is happening right now (July 27-29)! Scrap n’ Art staff are there to catch all the action so we can continue to bring our readers the latest and most inspiring content!
Have you been keeping up with all the product sneak peeks that have been coming out in the last couple weeks? There is so much new and interesting product! I know I can’t begin to scratch the surface of all the lovely supplies we’ll soon have access to as paper crafters, but I wanted to share a few things that have already caught my eye!
I am, first and foremost, a paper lover. It’s kind of a sickness for which I want no cure. I just adore fun, bright paper, especially when it has a vintage flair. Here are some of my favorite sneaks of new paper collections from CHA so far.
Crate Paper has a couple new lines I’m seriously drooling over: Restoration and School Spirit! LOVE.
October Afternoon continues to be at the top of my list of favorite manufacturers. Their new Seaside line is vintage, gorgeous, and everything you’d want to scrap a beach trip or vacation.
Jillibean Soup wows me again with their skillful pairing of kraft paper with bright, fun colors. This new Christmas line, Christmas Chesnut Soup, is AMAZING. Also really loving their new Pasta Fagioli line. How fun are those vintage cameras?! Swoon!!
Basic Grey’s new Christmas line, Jovial, makes me happy just looking at it. And they also really inspire me with the fun, vintage feel of Curio and the gorgeous Autumn colors of Pyrus. And those are just three of the FIVE new lines they’re debuting this week! Amazing!
Cosmo Cricket has several wonderful new lines, and one that particularly caught my eye is their new Togetherness line. Cute, cute, cute!!
Also loving Jenni Bowlin’s Family Tree line, along with Pink Paislee’s Old School and Sweetness lines. I know my list will grow as this exciting week goes on!
So, what new Summer 2010 CHA products have you inspired? Post your picks here!
