Sneak Peeks for CHA

Oh have any of you guys been snooping out sneak peeks of new products? I remember my first experience with CHA, online of course. I didn't even know what a CHA was and couldn't for the life of me figure out all the excitement. Soon the frenzy on the Cricut Message Board started and I was as wrapped up as every other living soul on there. We had a member that was at CHA and was taking pictures and posting them for us to see. This was way before everybody and their dog had blogs to post to *suddenly okie wonders of Lucy would like to have her own blog*. We were stalking the board like a fat kid stalks the bakery, drooling over every little glimpse of sweetness we were able to see.

I am loving the paper from PRIMA MARKETING that I found on their blog...





This new line from Creative Imaginations will likely go well with the new Cricut cartridge Camping Critters and I am sure some of it will likely find it's way into my paper collection *okie often wonders how some of that paper gets in there because she is quite certain she doesn't buy it all*



I seem to have a thing for birthday paper and I love having as many varieties as I can find so this is one sheet from American Crafts Confetti line that I know I will have to have! *okie wonders who she is kidding because she will have to have at least 3 sheets of the whole line*


I am excited about seeing the new products, I always am. But this year I am not going to go crazy and start stalking online merchants for the new releases. And why won't I do this? Well because I have paper to use right now and I need to use some of it before I start "garnering" more! *okie gives her readers a big wink when she says "garnering"*. I think of all the products released at CHA the new paper lines are what I anticipate about the most.

So what are your favorite things to see during the CHA releases?

  9. I like to look at all the new products but also need to use my garnered supply of paper before I can feel comfortable about adding and garnering more. Thanks for the looks.

  12. I'm just falling out laughing right now -- you are a woman I totally relate to!! I "found" you when I googled a solution for my Cuttlebug storage -- GREAT IDEAS!!! Then, I snooped around and found your NAUGHTY PRINCESSES - OMG! I have a few friends that I have to share that with ;D

    And, now I read that you have the same paper obesession that I do. I just can't resist it. In fact, I opened up a pack today that I bought a few weeks ago and thought, Hmmm, why did I buy this one, I don't really like it?! I usually buy matstacks, so they hide from my honey pretty well - I'm really trying not to get wooed by the CHA releases... but I'll have a good sized wish list going next week no doubt :) Thanks for brightening up the blogging world!
