CHA roundup ~ iLoveToCreate

INSPIRED...is all I have to say about my most recent travel adventure! I just returned from a CREATIVE week at CHA {Craft and Hobby Consumer & Tradeshow} in Anaheim, where I spent time doing demos, catching up with my ARTSY pals, talking NEW product development, my NEXT book and meeting super FUN crafters and artists from all over the world. There is so much to report and talk about I've decided to dedicate the this weeks posts to do just that. Each day I'll be sharing photos and/or video of all the creative INSPIRATION I found throughout the show floor. During the show, I spent a couple days doing demos at a some of my FAVE product booths and shot a lot of video...so look for fun techniques that showcase the latest and greatest art supplies!

Today I'm starting with my FAVE iLoveToCreate of course! :) We had a FABULOUS booth at both the Craft SuperShow and tradeshow designed by Alexa, Pattie and the iLTC design team. I did demos for Collage Pauge and Make-n-Takes for the NEW Fashion Graffiti Fabric Paints and tools. View my Fashion Graffiti technique video.

Check out the super fun video of myself and PattieWack, author of Crafter's Guide To Glue, talking Aleen'es adhesives, Collage Pauge and her creative projects!

I love to make atc's and art journals. I hope I have the courage to make paintings once.

I love to create things that tell a story (even if just to me), with bright colors and shapes and birds and flowers and I love words, too.
Peace & Love,
~Barb~

I love to create things I can give away! This includes fabric art, paper art, mixed media art, etc. Recently I've been focusing more on stamping and paper art/crafts. Would love to win so I could a wider variety of projects. Thanks! Barbara

Peace,

I love to create serendipity papers, especially when my inspiration is low or my health has taken a bad turn. Serendipity papers are a great ticket back into the creative, happy frame of mind.

[Sonya Flores]

I love to create hand painted papers for my journals. Using new colors, handmade stamps and different inspirational words.

[Susie Carranza]

[barbe]

[Meaghan V]

I don't Love to create, I LIVE to create! ;) But in honoring your question I would say I love to create mixed media paintings & journals because I get to mix it up and bounce from one medium to the next with no "rules" and no can not do's. I don't like being restricted, I like to move freely & loosely.

[Corinne]

Right now I love creating cards! Most to give away...but some I keep because I end up liking them so much!

[Cindy Eagan]

I love to create because it makes me feel more complete.
