some updates at last!

So you guys know I'm in the process of moving real soon, i've been hurrying to make my boxes done so that i can set up my stuff at the new house and get started on important projects! who said it was easy to move when you're a scrapbook artist !??? oh my! It's been a nightmare to sort out things and put them in boxes!!! I hate it ! but oh well...I try to calm down thinking about the GEAT room i'm gonna have!! MY OWN ROOM! YAY!

So how was CHA, you might ask? It was A BLAST ! I got to see friends again, some I already met, some I didn't, and i so enjoyed myself!

Here's a small recap...

So I left on January 25th from Paris to LAX...and guess what? I got upgraded to Business class! LOL that was cool, my friends!!!!

I left with Laurent, owner of Rouge de Garance, friend, co-worker and boss of mine! all of that at one time! hehehe! It was a huge success and I'm excited about all the new things coming soon !

Event if we were very busy with the show, we got to rent a car and visited Venice Beach, Long Beach and Newport Beach...and Anaheim and Irvine (because Julie and I wanted to shop at Scrapbook Oasis! hehehehe!!!! such a COOOOOL store!!!!).

here are the comments from each photo below...

• the 6 first pictures were taken in Venice Beach...very artsy...funky...i really like it ! We even saw a guy with 2 BIG snakes!! YUCK! i had to run away!
• 5 photos in Long Beach (one of Laurent and me...yeah i had to buy some movie star glasses : hey dude, i was in LA !!!!LOL)
• ne picture of me in front of HUGE palmtree pot and another one with Julie and moi,still in front of that huge thing LOL
• I was soooooooooo happy and honored to finally meet my friend Donna Downey !!!! not only she's so beautiful, but she's a doll...I knew that she was friendly and adorable but, WOW! she totally hypnotised me with her kindness and humour !!!! she ROCKS!
• got to meet my buddy Ana Cabrera !!! she was excatly like I imagined her : funny, cute, friendly and a sweetheart! ANA! LOVE YA girl! She was on the Purple Cows booth and oh boy! they gave me a 12x12 paper trimmer and a freestyle paper cutter that just ROCK !!!!! I'm going to tell you more about those but you HAVE to have these!
• I was looking forward to stop by the FONTWERKS booth!!! I've been a HUGE fan of their stuff for a long time but it's been a nightmare to find them in France! I was so shy to introduce myself to the girls there, especially Maria Grace Abuzman and Kai-Mei Smith : I've been admiring their work and respecting them for a long time!!! but Kai-Mei got me and told me " hey girl! go and introduce yourself to the girls!!!!!" oh-uh...ok... :)  I was so thrilled to do a photo with them too!
• I got to see Allison of Hambly Screen Prints again : Hambly is one of my fave brand BY FAR, can't get enough ! their new stuff is TO-DIE-FOR !!!! and we're finally gonna get some Hambly goodness in France real soon !!!!! YAY!!! :D
• I was delighted to see my dearest Carol Wingert again (Tena Sprenger and Carole have their new book out REAL soon: I've got some artwork in it)
• I saw sweet Elsie Flannigan without being able to approach her : there was so many people on her booth, which was the cutest ever!!! I wish I got to talk to her, love her...
• got to seemy sweet Angela Cartwright : sorry honey that i didn't make it in time, but at least I got to hug ya!
• and more...

This show was exhausting, I didn't have enough time to see everything (who can???? I even got lost searching for the exit!!!), didn't have time to see all my fave brands there and i was busy on the RDG booth...

I'm leaving you now with all the pictures, will post new updates in the upcoming days!

at home at last...

...until next thursday for sure!

Life has been crazy, i've been travelling a lot, being never home, and i'm moving to our new house with Damien, so I have had no time to update my blog, email friends, get things organized at all...

but i'll be back tomorrow for sure with an update since CHA ! Promise!

See you tomorrow! :)

here and there...

Just a quick note to let you know that I'm back at home. Got back from CHA last thursday, taught classes on friday, saturday and sunday at Version Scrap and got back home on Monday with my dear friend Tena. She stayed with me for a couple of days.
I'm already leaving this afternoon for a week of classes in Lyon and Paris and will be back home next Thursday.

I've got lots of emails waiting for replies in my mailbox but I'll catch upon them when i get home!
