CHA Summer Show!

Howdy Pardners:

I can't believe I'm leaving for Orlando on Monday! I'll be heading to the CHA Show and staying for the CHA Super Show. This is the biggest trade show in the craft industry and it happens twice yearly. I'll be sporting all of my fabulous creations I shared this week, checking out the new crafty product lines, taping a segment for Fiskars TV, attending the Fiskars' 360th Birthday Bash at Epcot, having a Girl's Night Out with some of my favorite crafty women and (though this goes without saying really) practicing the fine art of shameless self promotion!

I've got a lot of fun things happening while I'm there and when I'm not walking the show floor making new contacts here's where you can find me:
