CHA Day 3

Feb 1, 2011

What a great day today was. Thank you to all my sweet friends who came by the booth to wish me a happy birth­day. It was so sweet of all of you. Those of you that decided to sing happy birth­day to me I thank you too even though I wanted to run and hide. It was funny and I must admit so sweet. Car­olyn and Keri made me a birth­day card out of one of the cat­a­logs they got at the show. I will have to take a photo of it tomor­row so you can see… it is too cute!  Car­o­line and David took all the Road­ies out to eat and sur­prised me with a won­der­ful brownie and singing waiter after din­ner. Yes I was beet red, want­ing to hide but was touched with their thought­ful­ness. So Mr. Grumpy Pants has redeemed him­self and I guess I have to say, “I’m sorry for call­ing you Mr. Grumpy Pants the other day.”

Now on to another super cute prod­uct Maya Road just released… their Por­trait Chip­board Mini Set and Por­trait Stamp Set are super cute and remind me of the charms on my grandmother’s charm bracelet. The design team really cre­ated some awe­some projects using them. Lia glit­tered her mini chip­board pieces and Katie flocked the stamped images and mini chip­board pieces. Below are a few pho­tos of their projects.

Here are the Mini Chip­board Por­trait and Stamp Sets.

Lia glit­tered her mini chip­board por­trait pieces using fine black glit­ter. I love how this looks a lot.

Here Katie flocked her mini chip­board por­trait piece. This look reminds me of the old greet­ing cards you can find with vel­vet images on the front. Such a neat look and you can­not help but touch it when you walk by.

On this mini chip­board por­trait piece Shel­ley inked her por­trait piece then cov­ered it with clear emboss­ing pow­der. This is another super neat way to alter this new mini chip­board set.

This is one of the por­trait stamps Katie used on a project. Look at how crisp the por­trait image and scal­lop frame are. You are going to be super happy with your stamped images.

Here Katie cre­ated this adorable album cover  using the por­trait stamp set. I think it is so cute how she put each fam­ily mem­ber in the win­dow. This album is all about her home decor and what inspires her. Super cute!

In this photo Laura used the por­trait stamp set to stamp onto the new can­vas ATC mini album. I love see­ing all the unique ways you can cre­ate with this mini por­trait chip­board and stamp set. I hope you have found some inspi­ra­tion with how the design team mem­bers have cre­ated with these stamps. I now I cer­tainly have.

Tomor­row, the show closes at 2 BUT opens an hour ear­lier mak­ing that 9:00… really, who decided this? I’m so not happy with them. I will be in the Maya Road booth doing a lug­gage make-n-take. So if you’re still at the show come by and make one. It’ll be fun. Ok, I am off to bed. I am so tuck­ered out this evening.
