Okay...confession. I did NOT get much time to walk around and look.
And when I did walk (for the most part),I just got sidetracked by people and ended up talking to them instead of looking at product or photographing it.
I never made it to certain booths at all (I heard Fancy Pants was awesome, and I never really inspected Amy Tangerine even though it was all GORGEOUS...I think I was too excited to finally talk to Amy in person).
Some other booths (Studio Calico, Elle's studio) I really loved but didn't get any photos.
GCD Studios had some amazingly beautiful and usable products. Again...no photos. See a trend here?
But I did get photos in a few booths and I wanted to share what caught my eye.
Jenni Bowlin-I always love everything Jenni does. Her products are timeless and classic and I always want everything she makes.
Her 'feather tags' were my favorite product at the show:
jenni has always been my favorite scrapbooker (and she's the reason why i never do computer journaling), so i was so excited to see her layouts in person.
also thrilled for my friend lisa and her new jbs line modern mercantile:
SO EXCITED that jenni is bringing back her rub-ons. they were always my favorite...they are like BUTTAH. and i heard these will be available in gold and silver. EEEE!
BasicGrey- specifically the mint julep line. totally ME and i will be purchasing every piece:
how great is this sign? i want it for the girls:
Lily Bee- kristen hit the nail on the head with these releases. the heart/bokeh paper was one of my favorite papers at CHA.
Teresa Collins- i was pleasantly surprised and impressed with teresa's products this show. did you know she's in the MME family now? maybe that has something to do with why i loved everything so much! all i know is i want these goodies!
Crate Paper- My favorite new line of the show is a tie between Maggie's line for Crate Paper and Dear Lizzy.
I think Maggie got in my head and pretty much made my dream line. And her booth was darling.
Pebbles- I loved these journals and also they had a darling new line by Amy Locurto from Living Locurto.
Webster's Pages- Allison Kreft's designs are DARLING. Whimsical and fun and happy. I loved them.
Simple Stories- I particularly loved the albums and the Vintage Bliss line. The booth was also really cute. Love the counter.
I'm a big fan of the SN@P method of scrapbooking and I have an inkling that's how most of my scrapping will be done this year.
Glitz- They are really knocking it ouf the the park lately. I love everything they come up with.
Dear Lizzy- I don't even know where to start without gushing. Okay. I'm going to gush. I LOVE LUCKY CHARM. It's playful,reminiscent of my childhood, and just plain fun.
The navy floral paper is an instant favorite, I've already used it on two layouts for my BPC class.
And those albums? So me. I need a couple for sure.
Maya Road- loved this two-tone twine. i also found lots of stick pins and stamps i loved but (of course) didn't take photos for some reason.
Chic Tags- I loved every single thing Veronica came out with this release. Don't ask me why the only photo I have of this booth is the wall. She has lots of pictures on her blog, though.
Whew! There you have it...my show favorites!
Have a wonderful Sunday. :)
