CONVENTION NEWS

I apologize for not posting daily through convention as promised. We were SO BUSY we barely had time to breathe but WHAT A BLAST! CTMH really knows how to put on a convention!

We stayed at Disney's Coronado Resort, which is a wonderful place all in its own. Fill that great place with over a thousand crazy paper crafters and the place was hopping! We had creative sessions where we made projects with new product (Wait until you see what is in the new catalog....yahoo!), which even includes a new exclusive to CTMH Cricuit Cartridge! It is AMAZING!

We had a wonderful banquet and a spectacular eighties party! CTMH even gave us tickets to go to the parks one evening! AWESOME! We are already making plans to attend next year's convention at the Disneyland Hotel in Anaheim, California!
