CHA Favorite Paper Collection and a Giveaway!

I just returned from the Craft and Hobby Association's Mega Show in Anaheim, CA and it was phenomenal! I spent 4 whole days learning new crafting techniques and taking in all of the new products. And it was my last day of the show brought the paper collection that absolutely I fell in love with.

It's called "The Sweet Life" and it's available from Melissa Frances. The designers of this collection are Jenny Heid & Aaron Nieradka and they are the people behind the blog Everyday is a Holiday.

The collection is full of cakes, vintage signage, bunny rabbits, cupcakes, and polka dots, all in beautiful pastels. But the most amazing part of this collection is that everything was drawn and painted by hand (while most papers and embellishments are designed by computer) so that it all has a hand-made feel to it.

What's even more awesome is how cool and humble Jenny and Aaron were. You could tell that they were genuinely excited about their new products and their book, Mixed Media Masterpieces with Jenny and Aaron. Another cool thing? Jenny's adorably pink hair that matched their products perfectly. ;)

I have been poring over their book for days, just loving the projects and getting inspired. It's chock-full of art journaling ideas and great projects; I especially love the mini donuts made out of air-dry clay -- they look so real! All of the projects in the book have detailed step-by-step instructions that are really easy to understand and follow.

The book is available at most book retailers (including Amazon, Barnes and Noble, etc.) and their paper crafting collection will be available soon.

But I love this book so much that I want to share it with y'all -- so I am giving away a copy!

We Are Almost Home!

We know that we have been MIA for several days, not bringing you all of the deals and sales that we are famous for, but it's for a good reason -- we've been at the CHA (Craft and Hobby Association) Mega Show in Anaheim, CA!

The past few days have been a whirlwind. We've been meeting with all sorts of friends, both old and new, lining up some amazing giveaways, product reviews, and coupon codes that will be EXCLUSIVE for The Craft Mom readers!

I will be back here tomorrow, posting the latest sales, coupons, and deals. Over the next week, I will be sharing lots of pictures of some of the best new products that I found at the CHA Show!

Thank you so much for reading our little blog and sharing with your friends. YOU make this crazy dream job possible!

New Products from CHA - The Crafty Armoire

One of the coolest products we saw at this year's CHA show was the Crafty Armoire from Jinger Adams. It hangs over the door and holds so much stuff! 

It weighs about 35 pounds and is about 5 feet tall. There is a large metal hook at the top allowing it to hang on even the thickest doors. It will be available in early May. We'll keep you updated on where you can find it!

The Craft Moms Are at CHA!

The Craft Moms are still at the 2013 CHA Winter Show, finding all the best new products in the craft industry. We are so excited to share all of the wonderful things that we have found with you!

We are trying hard to continue bringing you all the deals and steals, but sometimes these hotel internet connections just won't cooperate.  So bear with us for just a couple of more days! 

Thanks for your understanding!
