Hello! I just wanted to pop in and see how you were all doing after the big Stamp-a-Faire event! What fun! I already can't wait until next year! Thank you all so much for your sweet comments on my posts and projects in this past weekend and always. You are all such an encouragement and I appreciate all of your kind words!
I am feeling a bit wiped out though today...a little zombie-ish from too many late nights last week getting everything ready. I hope you enjoyed all of the projects, videos and tutorials! I know I learned lots things that I can't wait to try, like Nichole's tie dye techniques and Danielle's washi tape. Sometimes it seems like there can't possibly be more to learn, but then these girls come up with something new and amazing! I love that this craft is always growing and evolving and there is always something to learn!
So...in my zombie state I went and got my hair colored and cut this morning and then I treated myself to a little bit of shopping. Have you been keeping an eye on all of the new product reveals for summer CHA? I have a bunch of Fancy Pants projects that I hope to share throughout the week. But other than that, I feel like I've been too busy to check out what's new.
I decided this morning was a good time to sit and browse through some of the new goodies. The new My Mind's Eye paper pads area already in stock at Two Peas. Yay!! These paper pads are hands down my favorite product (well, maybe second only to stamps). These are the ones I grabbed...mostly MME, with one new Echo Park pad thrown in there too. I can't wait until they land on my doorstep! I love new paper! I'm excited that there are a few new Christmas lines...I know I'll be creating Christmas things very soon! I think that All Is Bright pad is my favorite...love the red and blue.

Betsy thank you, SAF was awesome and I'm so glad it was online so we could participate. So many videos and tutorials I'm still going thru them all. We had so much fun down under I'm still excited after three days.
I too love the new MME paper packs and debating whether to wait unil they make their way down here or just get them from Two Peas. Knowing me I will probably go and order them tonight.
Thanks again for all the time and effort you put into making SAF a truly memorable event.

I didn't get to play along with SAF this year (booked a camping trip for the weekend!), but I sure hope to next year! I can see I missed out on a lot of fun :)
I've been creating holiday stuff all year to get ready for a craft sale - but yet I am still *super* excited for the new lines!!

I'm still trying to catch up and watch the SAF videos, but I did get to enjoy your one on the ribbon flowers. :) I love that new All is Bright pad too. Somehow I missed it in all of my surfing--I was hoping I would like the 12x12 too, but I think I prefer the 6x6 pad more (after looking at the back sides of the bid papers it still seems to have more of the red prints I love).

Beautiful Betsy! I didn't participate this year in Stamp-a-Faire -- I know I had a good reason when I made the decision, but for the life of me, come the event I couldn't remember it! So, I'll probably take my time with the challenges - I don't have a blog so the badges aren't as important to me -- although I did LOVE them! And I thought they were perfect ideas for the challenges!

Thank-you Betsy for all your hard work and creativity for Stamp-A-Faire. I really wanted to try your "burned" :) flowers but didn't have the right kind of ribbon. What? All that ribbon? I almost kept up with the challenges but pooped out at the end. I'm looking forward to going back and trying out so many of the different ideas.

A HUGE thank you to YOU, Betsy! All of your hard work with the videos and projects from SAF were fabulous!
I didn't have much time for crafting last weekend, but hope to join in the fun next year. :)

Thank you, Betsy, for all the fabulous work you did for SAF-- it was a blast! Thanks, too for the comment you left on my blog-- so sweet of you!
I've been eyeing some of the new MME paper and am wondering if getting the 6x6 might give me the most bang for my buck. I love the ones you chose, as well as your projects you make using patterned paper!
