CHA Trends: Part One

I'm back from CHA, still reeling & smiling from the overwhelming, fantastic time!
(My CK Creative Spaces Vol. 2 Giveaway is still open until Tuesday...so be sure to go to the POST BELOW if you haven't commented for a chance to win!)

 

Ok, so yes, I'm trying to smooth over my dorky, social awkwardness & many foot-in-mouth moments, lol...I may not make the best first impression, just sayin'...but despite all that, I had a great time meeting new friends, spending time with old ones, and geeking out over meeting several of my scrappy heroes.

On to the product...today, just a quick peek at some top trends I liked from the show.
Trends...both new and those still going strong & picking up steam:

Gold & metallic neutrals...along with papers, I saw a lot of this in art mediums, sequins, rub-ons, vellum, & tapes.

Pink Paislee Luxe

Viva Inka Gold

Embellishment Must-Haves:  Wood Veneers, Shaped Clips, Mini-bags, Washi.

Basic Grey Hipster

American Crafts Hopscotch Wood Tags...love this big size.

Prima Houses/Borders

Fancy Pants

Love these Prima clocks.

Favorite tape of the show!

So SOOOO much more to show...papers, more art mediums, make-n-takes, & top favorite collections.

So much inspirational product & so many inspirational artists & designers.
My mojo is going strong and I can't WAIT to get back to creating!
