Hello, my crafty friends, and welcome back to our blog, Paper Affair! I hope you are as excited as we are for our 2020 show season to begin. We will be kicking off the year in Orlando, Florida at the beautiful Gaylord Palms resort. I thought you might enjoy a sneak peek of what we’ll be creating at the Creativity Center. The beginning of the new year is beyond exciting for me. I not only have the privilege of sharing inspiration through this blog, but it also means new and exciting projects to share with you at the shows. The best part is that each project is sponsored by one of our amazing exhibitors, so once you fall in love with the products, you can go right to their booth and purchase your new treasures! How often do you get to play with the toys before you buy them? It’s a wonderful experience, (LOL)!
Elizabeth Craft Designs
You will be happy to hear that Elizabeth Craft will be in the house! We will be making this adorable card using some new releases and don’t worry, we will be using some of their microfine glitters; their glitter really is second to none. Come see first hand what all the fuss is about! There are some things you just need in your life and a little sparkle is one of them, (LOL)!
Art Impressions
You all know how passionate I am about watercoloring the Art Impressions way! We will be creating this sweet bookmark while practicing our watercoloring. I will warn you, once you’ve experienced this simple yet amazing technique, there is no going back, (LOL)!
It’s Cheaper Than Therapy
Let’s welcome It’s Cheaper Than Therapy back to the Creativity Center! We will be playing with some fun new Sizzix dies, embossing folders and Rinea Double-Sided Foil Paper; you’re gonna love this stuff!
I’m doing the happy dance because it’s less than a month until our first show of the new year! Orlando, here we come! Four months without you guys has been a long time. Click here and I will take you over to the Stamp & Scrapbook Expo site so you can start planning that much-needed weekend with your creative peeps. You deserve it! I’ll meet you at the Creativity Center and I’ll have your “I created” button waiting for you!
Hugs to all,
Lorraine

I can’t believe I have to wait all the way until September for the Expo that happens near me. I hope these projects are for all Expos. I can tell that I need to spend time at the Creativity Center this year. I love the Elizabeth Crafts’ turtle. They have the cutest dies. My watercoloring skills are abysmal so maybe I can improve. And, I have some of that Rinea paper and it really adds pizzazz to a scrapbook page. Thanks for the preview. All these projects look terrific!
I’m going to the Orlando Expo, so excited to visit your booth and be able to check out and buy your products!!! See you there!
Looking forward to the creativity center!!
Have never been able to get close to the Creativity Center as it is soooo busy. Will try again this year. Love the turtle card!
Looks like a lot of fun! I can hardly wait! I want to make them all! Lol!
Love it all. See you in August.
Always enjoy the previews. I am passionate about AI watercolor stamps. I hope to attend a make n take where that is featured. See you in August at Schaumburg SB Expo!

Love these cards! Always enjoy anything ocean related.
Love love love the turtle!
