CHA Set-up - Day 2

Howdy! Layle here again with you live from Las Vegas for CHA. It's 8:57 am as I type this and the show floor will be open in 3 minutes and counting! We're super excited for the first day of the show and can't want to show all of the retailers our new products live and in person.

UPDATE: It's now 1:17 and I'm just now sneaking away to finish up this post. To say there was a mad dash to the Simple Stories booth at 9 am sharp would be an understatement! It's been busy, busy, busy!

Before I jump in with photos from day 2 of the booth set-up, we received some EXCITING news yesterday - Scrapbook Update reported that our new Say Cheese line was voted one of the top 3 new lines of the show! We couldn't be more thrilled!!

Speaking of Say Cheese, the booth is all set up and ready to go. I thought I'd share some photos from yesterday as we wrapped it up!

Fabulous Say Cheese projects created by our Design Team -

Our new SN@P! Sets -

After we finished booth set up last night, we headed out to do a little filming with Scrapbook Expo for their Latest and Greatest and Tip of the Day video series. Definitely a little nerve wracking with the mulitple cameras, tyring not to stumble over my words, attempting to display the products from my perspective upside down, trying to NOT talk with my hands, etc - but it was fun!

Here were my two 'Vanna's" as I liked to call them :) Co-owner Kevin and account manager Sherman - they quickly cleaned up between each video for me!

Lots of photos being taken to share with you tomorrow, so check back with me then!! Gotta run, customers await in the booth!

Beautiful set up, great presentation. I wish I can touch it all. Can't wait to have the Say Cheese collection in front of me in my hands. Can't wait.

xo, Marian

I'm one of the many who voted Say Cheese as tops on Scrapbook Update! Congrats- I think it's going to be the biggest collection from the show.

Oh my! I'm drooling! I would have been making a mad dash for your booth too--All the design team samples look amazing! Congrats on the top 3 vote for Say Cheese!

I so wish I could see these collections in person, but then I would want them even more!! Thanks for sharing and congrats on "Say Cheese!" I am not surprised since all of your collections are simply AMAZING!

I have already pre-ordered two sets of Say Cheese! I am a big Disney fan, and can't wait to get these fun papers and goodies into my hot little hands! Your booth looks great!

Layle, thanks for sharing the behind the scenes CHA view with us - love it! I have a question about the Smarty Pants layout in the middle of that photo: Can we see a close-up please at some point (or is it already posted on the blog and I'm not finding it)? I need to scraplift that when I get Smarty Pants in my hands :) Thanks again!
PS: Congrats on Say Cheese! It's the Happiest Line on Earth ;)

It looks so much fun! And hard work. Wish I could be there. Maybe one day I'll book a trip to America, to coincide with CHA!
