Winter CHA '12 Flashback: Quick Quotes

Guess what?!?!?  We have a snow day today!  During times like these do I appreciate winter more.  Now I have lots of time to catch up craft wise and do other worldly chores.  It just feels so good to sleep in and be lazy.  But I won't do that because I want to accomplish many things today.

One of the booths that I enjoyed during the Winter CHA in Anaheim last month was that by Quick Quotes.  I never knew of Quick Quotes before (click here to learn more about them), but I can tell from their booth that it is a very established scrapbooking company. I always admire family owned and based crafting companies, and Quick Quotes has been added to my list.


As you can see in the photo above, there are a couple of long lines of people on both sides of the booth, waiting to check out what Quick Quotes has to offer.  Do you see me in line?  I waited at least 30 minutes for my turn, and I can tell you that it was worth the wait.  We were to make a beautiful shadow box from the Timeless 8 x 10 Canvas Kit.  I never made a shadow box before, and I enjoyed every minute in making this one.





And after you finish your shadow box, they give you a nice pink and black scrapbooking tote.  That really helped in carrying a lot of paraphernalia and goodies during the show.  It was also handy during my travels after the show.

I admit that I haven't done much scrapbooking lately, but Quick Quotes did rekindle that flame - making me want to do more scrapbooking.  I have a strong feeling that I'll be visiting their site more often, and maybe try their kits as well. 

'Til next blog!
