So much to see, so little time. This is the story of the CHA life, both at the show and on the blog. Yes, we’ve dedicated an entire week to this exciting event, but even that doesn’t feel like enough. So, I hope you don’t mind that we’re going to cram a bunch of videos in today. We’re also going to add an extra day to the fun and extend our CHA week through Saturday. Good? Good!
NEW EXIBITORS
Today I want to take you on a tour of some of the new exhibitors showing at CHA this year. These fresh faces always have beautiful and innovative things to offer the scrapbooking world and I hope you’ll join us in giving them a great big welcome to the industry.
Here’s an organization solution you’re going to love. Not only will it keep things tidy at home in your creative space, but it will also make crafting on the go a snap.

This company is as delightful as the name implies. Join me in looking at two of their new lines and get another glimpse at my speech impediment. (Last round of CHA videos it was “aluminum” that caught me—I can never say that word—this show it’s “tulle.”) There’s nothing like feeling foolish on film to boost your ego.

Personalize your albums with your favorite digital photos. This company makes it easy and fun!

Meet Kiki, the warm and adorable designer and owner behind Kiki Art. She’ll explain how her colorful designs are inspired by that happy child within.

PRODUCT DEMONSTRATION
Today’s product demo comes to you from the Zutter booth. Stephanie Ackerman, a dear friend of the CK family, shows how to use the Bind It All tool to make a charming little album in no time at all.

WHAT’S NEXT
Tomorrow: We’re excited to welcome a special guest blogger who will take you inside the first-ever CHA Craft Super Show. I’m not going to reveal our guest, but I can say that you’re sure to form an attachment when you meet her. (That’s a little hint for you.)
Saturday: I know that there have been requests for photos. If you’re one who wants to see show snapshots, Saturday is your day. We’ll post a bunch of great show shots for your viewing pleasure. While we’re at it, we’ll be sure to include one or two more videos. A good time is sure to be had by all.
GIVEAWAY
Here’s an original idea. Let’s say you tell us what you like the most about today’s post and we’ll select a comment to win a CHA prize pack. (Winners to be announced next week.) Again, the feedback is very helpful. Thanks so much for all of the comments left thus far. We love hearing from you.
Cheers!
Megan Hoeppner, Creative Editor



I love the products from scrapCessories!!!! I cannot wait for Daphne’s stickles storage to become available. What a great idea. Thanks for sharing the video.

Loved the Zutter demo, the effortless cutting was so cool (I read Stephanie’s blog so it was fun to see/hear her in your video!) that book was cute too.

Lily Bee and zutter are my favorite from this post! Love the demo!
The Cricut storage is cool! I also like the Zutter video. Thanks!
I just got home from CKU Charlotte where I purchased a Zutter Bind-It-All, so I was excited to see your video in the Zutter booth at CHA. I think I now have to buy some of those cute fasteners for the books. Thanks for sharing.

i liked the storage products
Ooooh, clear stackable boxes!!!! Looks very handy!
I loved the storage ideas from ScrapCessories I would love to find that in my local stores in MD that would be so nice to finally have a place to keep everything altogether. I would love those for my daughters Polly Pockets, Art supplies,and her beads stuff too. It looks like a perfect size for a lot of things not just scrapbooking related items. Please list all the stores or websites that would be carrying these please.
Thanks for the demo of the bind-it-all that was so cool! I also can’t wait to see more from Lily Bee designs. Thanks Megan
I love seeing what’s new. Thanks for sharing!
