On today’s episode I have a fabulous demo I filmed at CHA. Tim Holtz not only shows us his new die cutting machine, he makes us a flower using Grungeboard that he adhered Dictionary paper to! Then using his new Distress Inks and Buttons he makes it even prettier!! So enjoy this video of Tim working his magic!!
I would love to hear your opinions on the show, and if you have any problems watching it. As well, if you have any techniques, projects, new products or tools you would like to see featured. You can email me at:
First up, Silhouette America is introducing Heat Transfer sheets! You simply cut out your design on to the Heat Transfer sheets and iron it onto your shirt/jeans/bag. The transfers will come flocked or smooth in a variety of colours!
Next, Making Memories has introduced a magnetic sleeve and cutting mat for the Slice, allowing it to be hands free!! And the magnet is extremely strong!! This would allow you to make your cuts while doing something else!!
Finally the Creatopic from Xyron. This handy machine is 12″ wide and it applies adhesive, embosses full sheets of paper, allows you to use all your dies, and cuts your paper. By simply exchanging the cartridges you can perform all these tasks with one machine!
First up is the very sweet Elizabeth Kartchner giving us a tour of her debut line with American Crafts, Dear Lizzy! I can’t wait to get some of this to play with!!
Next up is Devorah from Buzz & Bloom!! You might remember her booth from the Summer. I am in love with all her laser cut chipboard, the acrylic and all the fabric pieces!! It’s a fabulous company from Australia!
Nikki Sivils shows us her new collections - and she has been busy, with lots of new products to show you!! AS well, as fun ways to incorporate the packaging into your projects!
Studio Calico is a very popular Scrapbook Kit Club. One reason they are so popular is because they offer exclusive products only available in their kits. So now they are bringing some products with the same vintage flair available to the rest of the retail stores!! You will definitely want to pick up some of these at your LSS!!
We spent a bit of time at the ProvoCraft booth! There is always a flurry of activity in this booth!
We start at the Cuttlebug! They are now offering Cut & Emboss folders that are very cool!! And they have also designed Quilling dies, which might make me actually try quilling!!
Next up we stop at the YuDu!! Last year we introduced the YuDu to you. You can check out that video here! This year they have added a screen that will now allow you to do screen printing on paper!! Imagine, now you can make some of your own patterned paper! Very Cool!!
Finally, the big announcement at the ProvoCraft booth was, of course, the Cricut Cake! Here we have Jinger showing you everything you need to know about this great machine!! The fact that you will be able to buy sheets of the gum paste in various colours makes me want to make some cakes or cupcakes now!! It will be so easy to impress everyone!! So check out this video on the Cricut Cake!!
Pink Paislee - they are definitely one of my favorites!! And I am loving their Artisan Line!! I can’t wait to try some of these new products! We have Rebecca giving you a tour of the booth!
Ahhhh, My Mind’s Eye - KC is back with a whirl wind tour of all of their new products!! I am loving the Lush collection!! I must have some of that to show on an upcoming episode of Scrap Time!!
They say we save the best for last!! The Cinch, by We R Memory Keepers, was one of the most exciting tools at CHA!! It is a book binding tool that is super easy to use!! You will want to check this one out!!
So I know the vote was for me to do the booth tours, but honestly, by the time we started filming I was really tired and thought that designers, creative director’s and people close to the products could give you a more energetic recap of their products. I tried to choose booths where we could showcase the true passion of the Scrapbooking Industry, with people who spend everyday of the year developing products to bring to you, the consumers!! So I hope you still enjoy the videos - we have about 10 more still to post, with more coming over the next few months!!
First off I want to thank everyone who came by the blog to enter the contest!! As well, I want to thank Provo Craft for supporting Scrap Time and giving us a Cricut Cake to giveaway. Hopefully, some of you that have just learned about Scrap Time will continue to come back and check us out! We release 3 videos a week featuring new techniques, products and tools and will hopefully be showing more Provo Craft products over the next little while!! I filmed some great technique episodes while we were at CHA featuring some of your favorite designers that we will be posting!
But now, the real reason you are reading this blog post!
The Winner of the Provo Craft Cricut Cake is……
#101. Sarah P.
Congratulations!!!! And once again, thank you to everyone who entered the contest and have watched Scrap Time over the last 3 years!!
First up is a booth tour of Tattered Angels. And I mention that the page refills resist, but I think they are actually just printed, and do not resist.
Now that you have seen all the products, Liz from Tattered Angels shows us the difference between Glimmer Mist, Glimmer Glam, Glimmer Glaze and Chalkboard Glimmer Mist.
