This week’s creative kick-start comes to you directly from the winter 2010 Craft & Hobby Association (CHA) tradeshow. In fact, every blog post this week will have a CHA flava. To start the party, we’ve got a look at some of this show’s new and fabulous exhibitors. Ready to embark on this new exhibitor tour? Sweet! Let’s go!
We were all smiles in this booth, where hip designs lined the walls. A favorite thing on our list from this stop is the FabRips, an easy-to-use sheet of paper-fabric strips. So fun!

These flowers, made from Studio Calico’s new FabRips, are easy to make and would up the excitement of any scrapbook page.
Stamping just got cuter, thanks to My Cute Stamps. The happy images are sure to add a dose of whimsy to your creative projects.

Love Love Love the Teresa Collins collection! So very pretty, girly, and chic!
It’s a hard choice between the button maker and the Teresa Collins baby line! Brown is my current favorite color for scrapbooking/decorating.
The frames at the Teresa Collins booth looked very familiar. Then I realized it was the exact same frame (just a different pink) used in the framed chalkboard in the “Tips & Tricks” article of the Feb. CK issue!
Thanks so much for letting us see the inside of CHA! What a neat place! I would love to see more of the Studio Calico products!
