Happy Holidays From All Of Us!

What an amazing time of year! We love getting some extra moments to spend with our friends and extended family. We got to celebrate the holidays with our ACherryOnTop.com Crafts family not too long ago. We appreciate each of our team members so much. They are definitely the heart and soul of what we do!

Such great food, music and the decorations were gorgeous! We hope you've had plenty of opportunities to share some relaxing time with your loved ones. From all of us at A Cherry On Top - Happy Holidays!

Help Us Welcome Deanna - Our April 2016 Guest Designer!

Screenname: Deanna13

First name: Deanna

Favorite Color: Shades of Teal because it reminds me of the ocean.

My craft supply 'must have': Lately, my 'must have' items are diecuts. I love the packages of matching diecuts which go along with the theme of the line.

I mostly create: 12x12 layouts for my grandkids and also of our vacations. We love traveling and I love reliving the moments by scrapping the photos.

Guilty pleasure: Chocolate! I don't have it very often these days, but I enjoy it when I do.

BIO: I married my high school sweetheart and we'll be celebrating 38 years in July. We have 3 adult kids and 9 adorable grandkids from 1 to 15 years old. They are just the light of my life and I adore scrapping about them.

CHA Winter 2014 Re-Cap

Craft and Hobby Conference/Tradeshow 2014: Anaheim, CA

CHA Winter 2014 is officially in the books!  New product purchased, meetings with Manufacturers keps and MILES walked!  What a blast.  Warning - this post is image heavy so be patient if you're browsing on your smartphone!

Graphic 45 Booth CHA Winter 2014

The energy at the show was full of expectation and creativity!  We love that feeling.  Maybe it was because this is the time so many companies begin to focus on Spring and Summer themes.  It's a nice break from the cold Winter!

Pebbles, Inc: Garden Party & Special Delivery; Carta Bella: Baby Mine; Echo Park: Summer Lovin' 

As always, one of my favorite reasons to attend the show is to meet designers face to face.  Email and phone calls just cannot replace real connections!
