Hello friends! Well I'm back from Creativation and what a whirlwind it was. So fun meeting new friends and catching up with other friends. I have meet some of the most amazing people in this industry. Thank you!
It's hard to believe that it's over! After a year of planning from product development, booth planning, new fixtures, getting the product manufactured, getting sample made and the list goes on. Tim Holtz and Paula Cheney work their magic with lots of hard work, dedication, passion and countless hours. Thank you! I am in awe at how it all comes together. So grateful to be part of such an amazing team. Here are a few, well more then a few, pictures of how it all comes together....
IDEA-OLOGY
Everyone starts unpacking boxes and boxes of vintage treasures and props.
It's always fun to see whats new.
Look at all the vintage goodness.
Lots of good times and the winner is......
MAGIC it tell you!
SIZZIX
I was honored to work in the Sizzix booth again this year demoing and talking about the Tim Holtz Alteration line. The NEW 3-D line was a big hit and it was so fun to see all excitement. And who doesn't love the 3-D glasses.
Look at how cute the diner for the Sidekick and Side Orders turned out!
The diner is complete with a little jute box and restaurant ticket holder.
January release.
February release.
March release.
The village series.
The new 3-D texture fades and 3-D Impresslits that emboss and cut with one die available in April.
Everyone had so much fun wearing the 3-D glasses to see the display!
Don't you just love it!
Sizzix Education
The Sizzix class all set up and ready to go! Thanks to all who came!
Such an honor to teach the Sizzix education class with Jen Long, Lori Whitlock, Stephanie Barnard, me and Katelyn Lizardi.
And here's the card everyone made with the new Funky Florals Thinlits die.
Thanks to everyone who came to the show or followed us on social media!
