And we were not disappointed. There were lots of new die-cutting machines scheduled to make our lives easier, and some more Digital Scrapbooking programs coming out soon. I talked to a few different marketers about Digital Scrapbooking companies to learn more about their programs. But the BEST software system will be released this fall by Stampin' Up! That's right... you heard me. Stampin' Up! has been working on this for over a year. And this fall the wait will be over. I had a chance to view the program at Convention in 2007, and it promises to be the easiest, and the most user-friendly program on the market. For those of you who aren't quite ready to make the big jump to digital scrapbooking, what about going Hybrid? That's when you design your scrapbook page on the computer, using Designer Series Papers that coordinate with Stampin' Up!'s current papers and card stocks. You will be able to "stamp" using the same sets and colors that make SU! the best in the market. Once you print your page out onto paper, you can add traditional embellishments, ribbon, Hodgepodge Hardware etc. and VOILA! You now have a HYBRID SCRAPBOOK PAGE.
Anyway, back to CHA. Agnes and I dressed up with some supplied props and had our photographs taken in a stall located in the JoAnne's booth. The photos were developed within a minute, and we used them to create our own 8" x 8" scrapbook pages. It's hard to see in these photos, but the pages we are holding each have 3 small photos on them.
This last photo shows a mini scrapbook made with Vintage Christmas ephemera. A new spray called Glimmer Mist was applied very sparingly. It dries almost on contact, and gives the card stock a shimmery appearance. It's not glitter; but rather a light shimmer. I'll let you know when I get some, so we can all experiment together. Thanks for stopping by. Have a GREAT day!
