Clear Scraps Sneak Peeks CHA (winter '10)

I'm so sad not to be going to CHA this winter (for the fun, and to get out of the cold here for just one week) but....I'm excited about the new Clear Scraps acrylic products coming out this time around. Clear Scraps is going to carry a whole series of purse-shaped albums called "Brag Bags." There will be 6 different shapes (Auntie's bag (above), Butterfly bag, Deco bag, Travel bag, Flower bag and Basket bag). They're adorable 5 page albums (aprox. 6"x7") and they'll make all kinds of wonderful mini-albums! I chose to take my Auntie's Bag album, take out the inside pages and use the 2 handled outside pages to make an actual purse with. I love how it turned out. The center part is a 1 1/2" strip of acrylic (made from the 12"x12" sheets of acrylic from Clear Scraps), covered with patterned paper and then I used my Bind-it-all to put it altogether like a purse. (Big shout out to My Little Shoebox and Creative Impressions Inc. for the other product on this purse - love you guys!)

The other new product Clear Scraps is releasing is more of their Banner Shapes. Check out Laura's "Home Sweet Home" banner here on the Clear Scraps website. Again - keep your eyes peeled at CHA for the 6 new shapes of banners - awesome for Home Decor in any room of the house, or pull the pieces apart and use them individually for other projects including scrapbook layouts.

Wish I were going - but since I'm not.....go for me, and have fun.
