More CHA Photos to Share

So I promised more pics from our trip to L.A. for CHA. We had such a good time and I made lots of new friends too. Here are some more of my fav photos:



Palm trees and sunshine, sigh...



Downtown L.A. has really cool lighting at night, this is in an outdoor courtyard area.



Downtown near Staples Center, where the Lakers play.



At dinner at the Yard House with three famous Jillibean Soup Design Team Members:
Summer Fullerton, (me), Kimber McGray and Laura Vegas. We had so much fun, however may have been the loudest restaurant ever, lol. Great food though.

Here is the other side of our very large table at dinner with 3 more design team members:
Jill (Jillibean Owner), Jen Harkin, Aly Dosdall, Alecia (Jillibean Sales) and Laina Lamb.

Now to share more Scrappin Rock Star Photos!


Yep that is the Celine Navarro from France, she is one of my all time fav designers! Her photography always amazes me and her multimedia syle always inspires. She came to the booth to visit and was so nice, in fact she is a big Jillibean Soup fan too!



This is Jing Jing Nickel another designer I was so happy to meet. She has a graphic playful and colorful style that never disappoints. She seemed surprised that I wanted a photo with her :)

Well that's all I have time for now, Gabe needs a bath and a nap! Have a great weekend! 

Heritage Layouts at Scrap and Stamp

Thiis week over at Scrap and Stamp we are highlighting Heritage layouts. To join in the fun all you have to do is create a layout with a heritage photo and a stamp. The winner will receive a prize of several different ribbons.

Here is my layout, it is another Christmas gift that I created especially for my father. This is his senior picture, wasn't he handsome! I added lots of his favorites things to the layout, fishing, hunting, outdoors and his favorite hymn- "How Great Thou Art".

Materials used: Cosmo Cricket/Mr. Campy-Skipping Stones & Nature Walk & Cardstock Sticker/leaves; My Minds Eye/Ooh La La; Jillibean Soup/Alphabeans stickers; Stampin Up/Lovely as a Tree stamp set; Hobby Lobby/Shadowbox Frame & wooden fish decor.

On a Cosmo Cricket side note I was  blessed with the chance to go to CHA last week and I got to meet one of the owners of Cosmo- Julie. She was so sweet and even talked with me for a minute. Then I got to take a tutorial from the very talented Natasja Verbeek on a new product called Glubers- so cool. So of course I invited her to come down to the Jillibean Soup booth to give our make and take a go and she did! So I was able to get this photo with her:

Natasja was so nice and we made sure to load her up with some yummy Jillibean Soup products to use back in Amsterdam! I will share more CHA peeks soon, gotta run for now.

I didn't find a pic of our design team coordinator- Kimber McGray from the booth so I wanted to share this one. It's one of my favorite pics from the trip Kimber, me and Summer at dinner. These two ladies rock, personally as well as creatively so happy to have them as new friends!
