I love new products…

… and this time of year is fun for that!  CHA – the big craft show – is the time when companies show off their newest goodies.

And I have some fun things I wanted to show you here.  The wonderful Tara from EK Success sent me a few of their new goodies.  They have GREAT punches coming out.  You won't believe it – I am gonna have to have them all.  They are the coolest!  The punches actually can be "locked closed" for easy, stackable storage.  Ahhh… how wonderful!  And there are awesome new border punches.  Woohoo!  Check them out…

Here is a card I made with a new border punch.  I used it to create the holes along the bottom.  The big star is a die cut which I adhere to the front of the card.  I then cut the center out with an exacto knife and stamped the greeting on the inside.

And here is a card I made using some of the great new Jolee's they have coming out.  They make cardmaking so fast and easy.  Love it.  I added brown Distress Stickles to the body for extra fun.  Bad photos, sorry.

  2. Those new punches are too cool. Love, love, love the new border punches. Here I come ready or not! I’m looking forward to all the new Nestabilities, Basic Grey, Tim Holtz products, Making Memories, and all the other companies. Heard there were going to be some cool things at CHA this year.

    Oh…I just love these punches! I can not wait to find these.

    Love the star card. It looks like you made it with Coluzzle or Cricut. This would be fun to try with shapes of all kinds.

    Love how you used the Fiskars butterflies. They make cards extra special.

  15. Have to say that I love the new punch you used and the other ones you showed. If that a border with a sand pail it is on my wish list! Neat sneak peek:))

  18. How do you cut so straight with an exacto knife? (video maybe? hinty hint hint).
    Your cards are lovely.
    I am completely out of the loop and don’t know what to look forward to… I’ll want it all I’m sure.

  19. OH OH OH OH I NEED the hole border punch. That will be a MUST HAVE. Going to have to get a new job soon. hehe

  20. I can’t wait till the new Hello Kitty dies from Sizzix come out. Also the Grungepaper by Tim Holtz.

  21. **>>> Wow! what great punches!! And space saving a must have!

    **>>>I just bought the WHOLE line called LAUNDRY LINE by My Minds Eye.

    I bought it fresh out the press and i love it lots — have you checked it out?

  22. Wow! Those punches are COOL! LOVE them! Great idea! 🙂 Love the cards, too! I’m looking forward to October Afternoon, Cosmo Cricket, American Crafts and Crate Paper! 🙂

  23. I lvoe those punches! WHO KNEW! what a cool feature to lock! I want them all! lol!
    I can’t wait to see Paris Hilton’s line. My daughter and I tried to find a peek last night, but couldnt find anything. Just found horrible mean things people blogged about her. My feeling is, we need to take the higher road and not judge her, and I hope that her line is awesome and does well!

  24. Isn’t it funny that it took so long for a company to think of the snap shut solution for punches! Transporting them will be so much easier now!
