Hello Virginia!

Guess where I am? I'll tell you where I'm not - at home!!!

We were doing so well and then there were 170 flights trying to land at Newark and couldn't and all 8 of the other closer airports couldn't take us AND we needed to land because we were running out of fuel. *sigh*

So I'm here in Norfolk. Joy, joy.

I have no idea yet if I'm here for the night or just to refuel like they initially told us.

*whine* I want to be home!!

Sitting here

I moved my flight earlier but the plane was half empty so now we're just sitting here waiting for more people from my original flight to get bumped up.

It is already snowing and icky at home so I really hope we actually take off!

CHA - Day Four - Bye-bye!!

My last day...sniff.

I get on a plane in a little while. Wow...what a trip.

Today, I've got the latest addition to the IHP design team, Dee, covering for me. I'm actually heading out earlier than expected to try to beat the bad storm that is headed for the east coast.

By request, I stopped by the Graphic 45 booth. Oh, and I was sad (although not really surprised) that October Afternoon was a no show to CHA. Oh well!

Anyway, go stop over by Dee's blog and see what I've seen! :)

It'll probably be a few days until my next post. I'll have lots of catch up and orders to fill from being away. And, more importantly, lots of new goodies to start adding onto the site.

Thanks for checking in this week! I hope you saw lots of goodies that you like!! And, if you did - let me know! I'd love to hear from you!

CHA - Day Three

Day Three! Phew....good thing Starbucks is in my hotel! *grin*

Today Tracy is covering for me. Covering for me is helping assuage her jealousy for not being able to actually be at CHA - at least that is what she tells me. :)

So...hop on over there and check out my news and sneak peaks. And, while you're there you should click on her Etsy shop. Not only is she a fabulously talented papercrafter but she makes the most beautiful earrings. It almost makes me want to re-pierce my ears!

There are a ton of people here at CHA. It's pretty overwhelming. And that doesn't even include all the to die for new goodies!!!



I'm so NOT a sticker person but Mrs. Grossman's Stickers got Duff, from Charm City Cakes (LOVE HIM) to make a cake for them and they designed a line of stickers inspired by it. How cool is that?

Ahh.

'Nuff said!

CHA - Day Two

Day two...I'm ready!!! My feet are killing me!

Last night I had a lovely dinner with Susanna and my new friend Sandy. Susanna is the founder and brains behind Papercraft Planet. It was so wonderful to finally meet her face to face after months of emailing and chatting online. Have you joined my PCP group yet? If not, you really want to. Trust me. I sometimes offer coupons for our group members over there that nobody else has access to. But, that's only one reason to join. It's a great place to network and chat. There's always someone around there to "talk" to.

Today, for my CHA coverage, I've got Loretta covering for me. I'm not really quite sure how between homeschooling her FOUR kids and fostering 3 dogs (in addition to two of her own!!!) that she has any time left to herself to craft, let alone blog or ANYTHING else but she volunteered! So...she's covering for me today. I hope her Superwoman cape doesn't get caught in the keyboard! :)

Make sure you pop over there and check out all the pictures and news I'm sending her throughout the day.

Thanks for stopping by!
