I bet you all are wondering? I know... it's been a few months since my last post, and I am sorry about that! I hate neglecting my blog. It's actually quite frustrating for me because blogging is an activity that I really enjoy and since I haven't been having the time to blog it only means that I've been having to do alot more of other stuff that I DON'T really enjoy! It also means that the Holidays were quite busy and it all seemed to happen in a whirlwind. I mean really... is it already 2013? Geesh! But, I am here now and I am glad to finally be posting again. I would've posted a bit earlier last night but I have been unlucky enough to have caught the flu this weekend and in all of my couch seclusion, I've gotten swept into an all day Saturday marathon of watching the Food Network and HGTV. When that happens, not much of anything else gets accomplished. Maybe you can relate!
So last week all you mega crafters and scrappers out there know that the huge CHA Tradeshow took place in Anaheim, CA! Everytime these shows roll around I am so envious of you all that get to attend and get to experience the event first hand... to peruse the new products and to meet fellow crafters and manufacturers. I just keep telling myself one day I will attend, and I really hope I get to do so. At least every cloud has a silver lining though. If I couldn't be at CHA, at least some of my creations could be! I was once again happy to have had a few more projects on display for the Core'dinations booth this Winter show, and of course I really want to share them with you here, BUT Blogger isn't allowing me to upload pictures at the moment! Arghhh, frustrating!
First of all, Core'dinations in conjunction with Tim Holtz, revealed their latest and greatest new collection called "Kraft-Core Shattered"! Actually, if you scroll down the page on that link I just gave, you will see my layout... it's the second one over titled, "Beautiful Tokens of Summer". This cardstock is soo cool, and I know you'll want some. It totally looks like you've crumpled and distressed your cardstock, but it's even better, because although the look is there, absolutely no effort is needed to distress. It's already done for you and there is a wonderful appearance of texture without all of the added bulk... couldn't get any better, right? I also have 3 other pages full of other Core collections that I had at CHA, and I will get back on and post those images too as soon as I can. Hopefully good ol' Blogger will cooperate with me soon. If anyone knows what's up and can help me trouble-shoot the photo uploading problem, I would greatly appreciate it!
I have all day Sunday left to relax and try to feel better before heading back to work on Monday. I sure hope I feel better soon, because I am not liking this soreness in my ribs from coughing and sneezing! I plan on catching up on some card-making if I feel up to it... fingers crossed! Hope everyone has a great week ahead of you all and I hope to see all my bloggy friends back here soon. I will try my best to not be a stranger again, lol!
