Keeping Calm & Carrying On

Setting Up in California

Hi friends! Well, I arrived safely in California and yesterday my team and I completed the first day of booth set-up at The Anaheim Convention Center. There's a lot of cool stuff happening at this CHA. Besides all the awesome new Bella Blvd product, did you know that Tori Spelling and wedding planner David Tutera will be at the show too? Pretty cool beans, right?!

It's always fun (in my opinion) setting up the booth. I know it's an "ungoshly" amount of work but it's fun working together as a team and creating the beautiful display. All the new products takes months and months to develop and create that it's so rewarding when we are finally ready to unveil the CHA Booth Display!

I couldn't be more excited about the new embellishments that are coming out at CHA. If I'm allowed to have favorites I must say...I love love love love love love love these new flags!

They're bright and sweet and little and stick so easily into cards, layouts and make fun little embellishments for all occasions! And these new Crochet Flowers are so petite and pretty! They are my babies!

I can't wait for the retailers and press to see them in real life. To touch them & squeeze them (well not really, but maybe ;) 

For more set-up details & photos swing by Bella's blog and catch-up with us!

Well that's all for now.....gotta get to sleep!

Friday Favorites

First off, thank you for all the congrats! Steven surprised the snot out of me when he proposed, believe it or not! After six years of dating we're finally going to "do this!" I'll be sharing plenty  of wedding-related fun as time goes on.....but....for now....

I'm also thinking about making  "Friday Favorites"  a new feature around here where I can share favorites of all kinds (scrapbooking supplies, stores, color schemes, food, etc.) What do you think? Would you be interested....or bored? Let me know in the comment below, okay?

So today my favorites include some of my brand new products with Bella Blvd. I've manufactureed these totally stinkin' cute Designer Tapes. The come in these cute everyday patterns and of course match all the Bella Blvd color palettes!

I was able to take some product shots finally today...love them! Don't they look delicious?! They will all be available in March at your LSS...but guess what?! You can win them! For Free .... by leaving a comment over here on the Bella Blog where there's some fun inspriation featuring the tapes too as part of the Sneak Peek Week(s) and Reveals!

Just one more Yumminess that I can't resist. My new buttons!

Have you noticed how popular wood is becoming in scrapbooking? I've been buying wood elements like banner, alphas, mini albums and more! These pretty pretty plastic and wood buttons are the perfect combination of color and soft wood texture! Again, you can win them for free by leaving a comment on this post over at Bella! 

So....what do you think of Friday Favorites? Maybe I call it Friday Yumminess instead....???

I'm headed to CHA today....then Italy after that....I'll try to be in touch around here as much as I possibly can....ciao ciao for now my peeps!

Happy Friday!

Guess What?!?

Sneak Peeks Day 2

We kicked off the CHA Sneak Peeks yesterday over at Bella, and the response so far has been wonderful! Today we have revealed an embellishment release that I've branded, The Button Market. I'm pumped about these beauties! The plastic button styles have been dyed to match Bella Blvd's signature bright color palette

           

(There's 8 total "plastic" styles---this is just a peek!) Don't you love the colors?

 ...and the wood buttons are just so dang sophisticated looking that I want to put them onto everything!

     

Again, there's 8 different styles of wood buttons. Over at the Bella Studio Blog you can see them all and even enter a free giveaway and win some of them!

Last but not least there's 4 different Button mix packs including a Feminine Mix, Masculine Mix, Neutrals Mix and a Wood Mix too!
 

I'm proud of all the hard work my team did to get these buttons at great prices! I know they're going to fly out of the Bella Blvd warehouse because the plastic and wood styles will only be $1.75 each! And these Button Mix Packs are only $2.99!
 

Be sure to stop by Bella for a chance to win some, or all of these buttons!

Good luck!
