TODAY was so much fun. I cannot tell you how much I LOVE meeting with the retailers at the shows. It is important to me to know what they like and to hear feedback. I was so happy and thankful for the wonderful response to my collections. I want to share the photos from the booth today.
This wall is FABRICATIONS. The papers are full of color, non-themed, and with the added textured heavy weight papers they look and feel similar to fabric. The lines were very popular with the 8x8 paper pads, chipboard covers and metal trinkets and fabric flowers. Everyone loves the new buttons and stamps.
Upclose view-
Love that it can be used for boy, girl, wedding, or ANY THEME.
This is EVERYDAY MOMENTS....
The response to this line was very positive and the comments were that they loved the color combo and the beauty of the line. They liked that I had many skus to support the line.
Love the white FABRICATIONS flowers (photo credit: Tammy Mitchell Photography).
Die-cut sheets, chipboard album, brads, stamps... I really love the meaning behind this line.
I am absolutely in LOVE with Spring Fling. It was fun to hear that many retailers LOVED the HAPPY COLORFUL line and felt it still maintained the TC brand look and feel.
Carolina Breeze has been well recieved with the textured paper and colors. I think it is the perfect yellow!
Here is the full view of the two collections:
I loved this photo framed copy of my idea book cover. It was a gift from Northridge Publishing. The idea book was debuted in their booth and my booth today. It was fun to hear positive feedback on the beautiful photography and how well Northridge did the book. I am so thankful for the great attention to quality and detail. It made me feel good when Gentry (she saw it for the first time during CHA) now wants her own copy.
Gentry also asked today if I could give her the TC X Sticker maker by Xyron. Yes, she tried it and loved it. The sticker maker was used during the make n takes. I can officially say today that MORE good things are debuting soon with Xyron. Stores can order the sticker makers directly from TCD or Xyron.
Now for some PHOTOS- This is NICK NASH, the sales director for TCD, moi, Gentry and Julie Jacob at the beginning of the day.
A very upclose photo of my daughter and I together-
These cute girls are truly the "QUEENS of YOUTUBE." I met Rina and Gina some time back. They came into the booth and we chatted...laughed and well... I LOVE THESE beautiful girls. I can't thank them enough for their support and how much they promote my products. It really means to much to me! Thank you girls...
I have to say this beautiful girl (Taylor) melted my heart. She came into the booth with her mother. She was adorable and her mom said..." I have to tell you, that I asked Taylor what she wanted to see or do today. She mentioned that there was two people that she wanted to see and take a photo with. She wanted Tim Holtz and Teresa Collins." I was so touched... really, I can understand Tim... he is super star amazing. Pinch myself that she wanted to meet me. It was so cute and I was truly humbled and touched. Thank you Taylor for thinking I am " a little cool." I bet my own kids will not see me in the same way. ha!
Thank you Taylor!!!!!
At 6pm...the show closed. I had never left the booth once...we were too busy. My feet were hurting but I had a huge smile on my face. Today was a great day and I reconnected with so many of my friends. I would be VERY ungrateful if I did not thank those in attendance and those of you at home who read my blog and support my company for allowing me to continue to do what I love to do. I am truly fortunate and blessed...
