CHA 2012 | A Glimpse

Participating in a live taping of Paperclipping Roundtable with Stacy Julian, Angie Lucas from Ella Publishing, Noell Hyman, Nancy Nally and Isreal Hyman.

Meeting Jenny Doh whose new book Hand In Hand: Crafting With Kids will be available in April. I'm a project contributor to this book and it's now become available for pre-order through Amazon. I'll share more details as it gets closer to the release date.

Dining with friends: Liz Kartchner, Elise Cripe, and Kelly Purkey.

Heading home today from CHA (the Craft & Hobby Association show) and sharing just a couple photos - more to come on products and general observations. It's my first time being back in a few years and it's been fun to be in the midst of all the creativity and re-connect with friends in person.

"CANVAS CREATE" is a new monthly video series from Mixed Media Artist, Donna Downey, that takes you step by step through her process of creating a new mixed-media art canvas each month. Each month Donna will introduce several new techniques, tools, and products that she uses in her artwork as well as take you in a real time journey through the creative decisions that go into the making of each canvas. No matter what your creative background...from beginner to seasoned artist, you will enjoy creating along with Donna each month.
