Inspiration Wednesday.

i've been on a whirlwind of projects lately,
rolling out of one & into another, 

lots of designing it up for deadlines,

plus a BIG CHA assignment i found out about this week

(the list almost blew my socks off but it's gonna' be sensationallllllll)

i'm SUPER pumped to get rolling with...

crossing fingers that my creative kick keeps on a roll because i'm gonna need it!

(for those who are saying "What is CHA?")
 it's basically a scrapbooker's paradiseeeeeeeee of star-studded talent PACKED into
a few days of the loveliest eye candy,
tired feet {because you want to see as much of the show as possible},
drooling over the latest & greatest, bucket loads of inspiration...
but 
good thing it's only only for retailers because
i.would.go.broke.
 but the Winter Show is typically the biggest one of the year
& you can check it out here 
(it's happening in Los Angeles 1/29/2011 - 2/1/2011)
basically January is a time of intense deadlines from manufacturers, designers with lotssss of tape on their lips because to reveal would mean death (wink wink),
but allllll worth it in the end + it only happens twice a year (Winter & Summer)
+ reading over on Tim Holtz' blog this week
i became even more excited that he said {and i quote}...
 "i have to say that CHA-2011 is going to be my biggest show yet!  so many exciting new things coming in the new year.  i do hope you take the time to be creative if even for a moment - remember those moments can add up to inspiring creations..."
my jaw dropped to the floor
because he already has some killer stuff & him saying this, i'm thinking
we all best get.readyyyyyy. because he ALWAYS
brings it with the most amazing product!!

anyhoo,one BIG deadline i finished up this week
