Congrats to all of our winners!!! Fantastic products coming your way! When you get a moment, send your mailing info to patty@jillibean-soup.com so she can get your goodies out to you!
Thank you bunches to EVERYONE that participated! I LOVE giveaways and I LOVE reading all your comments! Thank you for your support. ;)
Now, should we do a few more pics?
So, I'm always mentioning Patty - right? That's Patty and I getting a make n' take ready. Patty works in our office doing many different tasks. She's the one who sends out all of our giveaways (so be nice to Patty), she ships out all the consumer orders as well as organizes and ships out all of our Card Kitchen Kits! Patty was able to join us in Chicago for her 2nd CHA show. She's a big scrapbooker/card maker as well and loves to play with Jillibean products. ;) Say "Hi" Patty.
I can pinpoint 2 "exciting milestones" for me with each new release... the 1st is when Laina or Nadia send over the print-ready files for the first time and the 2nd is when I get to play with the product (most of the time before anyone else does ;)). Well, I certainly got some playtime in with this show - believe it or not, I haven't touched any Jillibean since the last CHA so I was more than willing to "jump in"! These are some fun tags that I created with Soup Staples II and the Winter Tortellini line. We will be posting a project sheet for these tags soon - templates included!!
Here's another fun project I created with Grandma's Lima Bean Soup - love, love, love that line!!! It's so easy to just pull pieces parts from the papers, stickers, diecuts, bite size bits - love it all!!!! I found this metal holder at one of our local vintage/eclectic shops and was just waiting for the right stuff to fill it. I added some seashells to the vellum envelope. Love the pic of Kams and hubby!
Speaking of Grandma's Lima Bean Soup - did I mention that I LOVED it? Here's a quick close-up of Nicole's fantabulous layout that was hanging in the booth. You'll get to see the whole thing soon!
Hmmm, looks like Kimber and I are just loungin' around! That carpet is so clean and vacuumed - it must be first thing in the morning before anyone is around. Bring on the peeps!!!
Wish I had a better pic of the "stamp door"... we have an old screen door hanging in the booth that we clip the Unity/Jillibean stamps and samples to. It's cute and full of inspiration! Our stamp winner Kerys is going to have a fab time playing with these sets!!!!
We have a "shelf" in the booth too that I like to make little vignettes of the products. I see some adorable cork trees from Jen, some cute gift boxes (with yummy chocolates and buttons - which would you choose) from Paula and some fun butterfly frames made with the Soup Staples II - chevron side!
One of our make n' takes from CHA using the new Banner Bites - flags, flags and more flags! You guys will have fun with these too! Oh, and you can stamp on them!
Here's a note for our retailers - we start shipping NEXT WEEK!!! Make sure to get your orders in to receive the CHA discount! Please shoot us an e-mail or call 1-888-212-1177 with questions!
Oh and for our consumer shop, Patty has been adding all of our last releases to the consumer store - they should be in there next week too! If you've missed out on the Corrugated Albums, Soup Labels, Coconut Lime Soup or Game Day Chili - all of that will be in the consumer shop next week!
I think that's it for today. Thank you for your patience on the giveaways! You'll want to keep checking back in the next month - we have a special birthday celebration for September as well as a DT call coming up soon!
Have a great weekend!
OMG!! I won! Thank you so much! Those projects look amazing! I have the day off and I am getting ready to get my scrap on with my Jillibean goodies!

So Robyn (a friend) saw those Cork Christmas Trees and posted them on Facebook from CHA. I TOTALLY feel in love with them and I have already purchased the cookie cutter star shapes to put on top! And DT call...?... Yes, I think I saw that. :)

Wow! Such a cute booth! Love the way the stamps are displayed and so much eye candy on those shelves. Can't wait to Nicole's layout fully revealed. Thanks for sharing! :)
