Wow . . . again, what a fun day yesterday (Sunday).  It was such a blessing seeing so many Fiskateers . . . I wish I could meet you all.  I love that part about it and a highlight of the show for me!  I got to see some ‘old’ (not in age :) Hee) and new friends.  It was nice to put names with faces for many of you gals.  What a blast . . . thanks for stopping by and saying hello. 

The morning was buzzing with excitement everywhere on the show floor.  I manned the make and take booth on the Cloud 9 side . . . had so much fun creating and meeting new faces and greeting familiar ones.  I enjoyed sharing a couple moments with my Aussie Fiskar Family Members . . . Bernie, Darren, Helen and others.   A fun group of folks.

It was a blessing spending a few moments with Amy and Nancy of Cloud 9 . . . these are seriously two of the sweetest gals you will meet.  The booth was beautifully decorated . . . very warm and very busy.  I spotted a sweet photo of Heidi Grace and her new addition . . . Regan.  The morning was buzzing and included a visit from Kristina Contes.  Other celebs that stopped in . . . Geno from Brains on Fire.  The afternoon Martha was expected to stop by and say hello.  Yes, that would be Martha Stewart.  Here are a few shots of some of the product line . . . again dreamy.  Love it!!!

Well, I’m off . . . I’m going to check out a little more of the show floor and then head to Fiskars for the afternoon to do fun make and takes.  Blessings for a great day!

    Cheryl!
    I was at CHA all day Sunday and all day Monday (I will tell you what I was doing there in a sec…) but during my breaks I stopped by the Fiskars booth looking for you. Both times I asked Holly (what a sweetheart!) where I could find you. But I couldn’t find you :( I wandered all the adjacent areas, but either I missed seeing you (after all, it wasn’t hard to be dazzled by all the goodies!) or I stopped by both times and you were off taking a break. But wanted to say hello and give a hug, Holly gave me my own orange Fiskateer t-shirt - made my day.

    Anyway, I was doing demos at a booth for our friends from Angel’s and their new products from Zutter. I can tell you more later - very fun for me to get into CHA and meet so many wonderful scrappers and industry folk. Until next time :)
