I think it's worse almost.
The hard part is waiting for everything to start appearing in the stores.
It's like, "Merry Christmas, but oh your presents won't be here for a month or two"

I think I posted in the chat thread last night that I feel like I have a CHA hangover/withdrawal. I agree that the challenges have been inspiring. I've used a lot of stash...which is probably Two Peas' plan, get us to use our old stuff so we'll buy new items!

I like the anticipation of when the items will hit the store... so no, there's no letdown for me!

I am. But I'm also happy that there's a lag time before most of it will be available. I'll have time to sort my needs from my wants. And I'll have time to make room in my current stash.

Nope, I loved the chatting going on here, but the real excitement for me is when it hits the stores.

Yes! I feel like it went by too fast. But I'm going to try to savor it by doing the challenges and going through sneak pics.

Only because the # of challenges have inspired me to get more done than normal. I haven't really looked at any of the new stuff because I am trying not to spend any money on scrap supplies for at least a couple of months, ideally more. In itself that is a huge challenge because that is at least half the hobby to me. I will say I've gotten way more created since I haven't been shopping thought. This is a 'GOOD' thing.

No letdown yet, because I'm still hard at work on the challenges!

I don't mind waiting for the stuff to hit the stores, as I couldn't afford to buy it all now anyway!

But I do miss the buzz about it all, I get really excited about scrapbooking a lot of the time, but during CHA it's fun that we're all excited at the same time and can all chat about it so much! It's like a weekend long party. So I do miss it and will look forward to the next one!

Happy to say that I not only got that one challenge I hoped for...but TWO! So, now I'm not bummed after CHA...it actually propelled me to be extra crafty this whole week!
