cha anaheim 2009: maya road sneak peek

this week starts the maya road sneak peeks at their company blog

i really love these albums with the envelope pockets (and they come in 2 sizes!)

here’s one of their dt creations with the 5×5 binder book with envelopes…

and i think my favorite new flower book, the sakura accordian book:

katie watson, one of the maya road dt members put this album together. i find katie’s work so inspiring and i love what she did with this new release:

and finally a little dino book. i see this one making a really cool museum of natural history mini!

i can’t wait to see what else they’ll be releasing!

cha is just around the corner!

hi there pb readers!

i know, it’s been a really long time…

but cha winter in anaheim is swiftly approaching which means new product time!  cha winter is a HUGE show where the entire crafting community gets together to see all the brand new trends.  those of us whoa re fortunate to have experienced this show know how important it is… the floor is a buzz with store owners, designers, and craft enthusiasts wondering what this year’s big trend will be, who’s colors will inspire us, what shapes are out to play with.

thankfully most manufacturers in the scrapbooking industry don’t make us wait!  so check back here where we’ll be sharing some of the cha sneek peeks already out… let us know which ones inspire you!
