CHA Summer 2011 - TOP 10 LIST! PART 2

And the countdown continues…..

6. JILLIBEAN SOUP - HOMEMADE 6 BEAN SOUP

We, of course, have to give a shout out to our home girl, Jill, at Jillibean Soup. She always brings us new lines with delicate patterns and tasteful embellishments.  The Homemade 6 Bean Soup line features stitching which is very hot right now. We love that the new cardstock sticker sheet includes a large alphabet AND a mini one.

 

7. FANCY PANTS - SAINT NICK

Oh, Fancy Pants....you always make my heart go pitter patter.  The Saint Nick line features traditional holiday colors with a touch of blue.  There is just a hint of vintage with muted colors and subtle distressing. {swoon}

 

8. EK SUCCESS - SMASH BOOKS

EK Success had, well, success with the Smash Book upon its release last year and its momentum has not slowed down.  Several new elements have been added to this increasingly popular concept of bringing back old style scrapbooking. 

 

9.  BELLA BLVD - TOO CUTE TO SPOOK

With traditional Halloween colors and a touch of whimsy, Bella Blvd delivers a stunning new line even a mummy would love.  This is Bella Blvd's first Halloween collection.

 

10. CANVAS CORP - CANVAS HOME BASICS

For all the artsy-fartsy, out of the box thinkers and off the page designers, this one's for you. Canvas Corp offers a huge assortment of canvas and burlap tags and banners in multiple sizes.  They also have a unique denim and velvet line.  It's a shabby chic dream come true.

CHA Summer 2011 - TOP 10 LIST! PART 1

It was just as hot in Chicago for CHA Summer 2011 as it was in central Ohio. Not only was the weather sizzling, but the new products were on fire!  The vendors never ceaseto amaze us with their incredibly creative booths.  They have a great way of displaying their products that make us want to buy one of everything!  But we stayed on task and stuck to the plan.  We worked together as a team, hit the showroom floor with a purpose and found some amazing products.

So without further adieu…we know the anticipation has been unbearable…here is our CHA SUMMER 2011 TOP TEN LIST.  Remember - these are in no particular order and while we’d love to bring you every single thing, the Top Ten list is just a sampling of some of the products you may see in future ScrapScription kits. 

1. PINK PAISLEE - VINTAGE VOGUE

Do you remember Collage Press?  Their creator and designer has teamed up with Pink Paislee to create this wonderful new line.  We really liked how the black popped against the pastel pinks, greens and blues.  The ribbon trims, paper rosettes and ephemera are show stoppers in this collection. 

2. WE R MEMORY KEEPERS - SEW RIBBON

We all loved the Sew Easy floss system when it was released last year.  We R Memory Keepers has done it again with the Sew Ribbon. This handy dandy little system makes weaving ribbon on your paper quick and easy. It comes in six designs and their clever ribbon needles make the actual stitching a breeze. They also sell ribbon available in six color families with 2 yards each in velvet, twill, and grosgrain ribbons.

3. OCTOBER AFTERNOON - FARMHOUSE

October Afternoon always delights, and at the summer show they stayed true to what works for them. Adorable images, beautiful colors that coordinate well even when mixing lines, and tons of possibilities for some really cute projects.

4. MAYA ROAD - EMBELLISHMENTS

Maya Road has such a huge assortment of treasures that we spent hours in their booth oohing and aahing at all the scrumptious goodness.  Trims galore in so many textures and colors, mists, acrylics, chipboard, coasters, mini albums, flowers, pins and many other trinkets.  We liked how the Maya Road elements were so versatile and add dimension and interest to projects.

5.  AMERICAN CRAFT - AMY TANGERINE:

One of the most talked about products at CHA this summer was the Amy Tangerine Collection from American Crafts. These eye catching products drew people into their booth, with a great display of projects and well, Amy herself. The collection was inspired by Amy's own loves: travel, cameras, and a bit of vintage. There are 24 different designs of paper, some of them fabric papers, as well as stickers, stamps, Thickers, and flair, all in colors perfect for everyone. And although there are some travel-themed items, the overall feel is that the collection is universal to almost any theme.

So there you have it!  The first 5 from our TOP TEN FAVORITES!  Leave us a comment below and let us know which item you like the best and why.  On August 25 we'll pull one winner from all the comments left to win a cool CHA Summer 2011 prize pack!  Whoo hoo!!!! 

Be on the lookout for Part 2 of our Top Ten list next week!

SCHOOL DAYS, SCHOOL DAYS. DEAR OLD GOLDEN RULE DAYS!

ScrapScription is pleased to bring you two fabulous school albums this month.

THE HIGH SCHOOL YEARS - 9" X 9" CHIPBOARD BINDER ALBUM:

Does the thought of documenting your teen’s high school years into one album scare you?  Are you afraid their “high school” album won’t be completed before their senior graduation party? Trying to get ahead of the game and finish an album that you can give as a graduation present?  Then ScrapScription’s The High School Years kit is perfect for you!  We’ve taken the perfect 9” x 9” binder album from Bo Bunny and paired it with Bella Blvd’s fab Midterm papers and embellishments.  The format is simple – a tabbed chipboard page separates each year – freshman, sophomore, junior and senior.  Then a special tabbed section for pictures and a final tabbed section just for graduation.  In between are cool Kraft file folders that will give you space for more photos.  Large index cards also provide tons of space for journaling.  Wait until you see the special “zipper trimmed” pages that this album features – way cool!  Large printed icons add to the fun feel of this album – tennis shoes, laptop computer, cell phone and pizza pie!  With three alphabets in this kit, there are plenty of stickers to customize your album.  And with the binder rings inside, there is tons of room to add additional pages.  Don’t wait – order yours now and avoid the rush!  And have a gorgeous, fun album to show off to all your friends and family at your grad’s big party!

BACK 2 SCHOOL – 8.5" X 11" FILE FOLDER ALBUM: 

The school bell will be ringing soon for the start of another year of higher education. We here at ScrapScription always cringe a little ourselves at the looming new school year as our own Candy goes back to work as a Special Ed teacher in her local school district, but this year we've planned ahead and prepared the newest kit release in anticipation of getting your school year off to an A+ start! BACK 2 SCHOOL features a unique album constructed from 8.5" x 11" office file folders! You are going to love all the room you are going to have to add all those important moments of your student's life including – their first day of school, their teacher, their schedule, their class and even more! Simple Stories' brings us a bright but shabby, distressed feel in their Elementary Collection. The familiar school icons are all present and accounted for in the matching stickers, journaling cards, and other elements. Get started now on your child's school album and see how easy it is to add your own extra pages to the fun black rubber rings. Hurry up – attendance is being taken and you are going to want to make sure you're there to get your kit today!
