Time is flying by! On Dec. 29, I pack up Scotty, my vintage camper, and start the journey west from Virginia to the Craft & Hobby Association (CHA) Show in Anaheim, CA. There are lots of exciting things happening in the booth- read about them here.
Now I’d like you to meet the Paper Trail CHA Designers who will be demoing and doing Make and Takes in my booth at CHA. I am so happy to have them there sharing #cre8time projects. #Cre8time is an initiative promoted by CHA to encourage people to take time (8 minutes) out of their day to make something.
So, heeere’s Lisa!

Meet Anita Scroggins…
I am happily married to the love of my life, a man who doesn’t get mad when he ends up at work with glitter on his face. We have two beautiful grown daughters, who live right down the road from us and one precious granddaughter. Gardening, cooking, volunteering, and laughing with my friends are how I spend my time when I am not crafting.
I am an experienced media spokesperson, educator, project & product designer and more. My scrapbook, home-decor, paper crafts and up-cycled projects have been featured in books and magazines, at events, and trade shows. I blog at The Flamingo Chronicals. You can also find me on Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. My style is diverse and ever evolving, but one thing remains the same, less is less and more is best and white space is my enemy.
Hi crafty friends! I’m Einat Kessler, creative professional, mixed media artist, scrapbook and paper designer, altering enthusiast and class instructor from Israel.
As a little girl I remember sitting in my grandparents living room with a huge scrapbook on my knees (I was only 6 years old so the scrapbook seemed larger than it really was), looking through the photos of faraway places my grandparents visited. As a master bookbinder, my grandfather built a new scrapbook from scratch for every trip he and my grandma took. After the book was ready he filled it with photos, postcards, images he cut from magazines, tickets and lots more. I thought it was pure magic.
Years later when my first son was born my grandfather suggested I create a scrapbook for him. This was the first scrapbook I created. In those days there were no scrapbooking supplies in the stores here I had to be creative and create everything from scratch. One day while on-line I searched the word scrapbooking and BAM!! A whole new world just gushed into my life! I was completely hooked!
Slowly the new hobby took over my life until I decided to quit my job and open my own business. I started a blog, a Facebook page and a YouTube channel. Today my brand has evolved beyond scrapbooking to include mixed media, DIY projects, altering and recycling, classes and workshops, Etsy shop and more. I design for several companies and publications and I share free tutorials on my YouTube channel.
That’s just a few of the amazingly talented designers who will be in the Paper Trail booth! If you are going to CHA, make sure to stop by Booth 330 and chat with them!
can’t wait to see all the exciting things that will happen at CHA! (not in person unfortunately boo hoo)
What a fabulous line-up of crafty professionals Eileen! You and they are going to have a ball. Like Lisa, above, I wish I could be there in person….. I don’t know the other ladies but I love the work that the wonderfully talented Marjie Kemper does and she is such a lovely lady too! xx
Looks like an amazing team headed for CHA with you! 🙂
Anita is a great gal, you are lucky to have her on board.
Everyone is in for a treat.
