Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) January 28, 2006 -- With the 2006 Winter version of the Craft and Hobby Association’s biggest show of the year in Vegas soon opening its doors to crafting industry professionals, updated classic trends continue to immerge for use by paper crafters and general crafts alike.

A fresh look at robust color swatches merge with bold textural combinations and add a new dimension to traditional product releases. There is no shortage of accessories utilizing bold, masculine colors conveniently balanced with collections of light, fresh feminine color sets are at the forefront of industry releases.

Kits and collections will also be high on the priority list of buyers. Pre-designed, coordinating supply packages make choosing and buying products that will work together effortless.

“Crafters don’t have time to look through an entire warehouse of product and find matching paper, stickers, embellishments, etc. A well thought-out kit takes all the guess work out of locating products that work together in favor of spending time creating projects,” said Scrapworks Founder, Denise Hoogland.

CHA offers a sneak peek at what will be turning heads in the crafting industry for the spring and summer of 2006. All the season’s must haves in one place feature a down-to-earth feast of detail and colors for making even the most mundane moments into monumental memories.

“Many people continue to draw inspiration from fashion and interior design industries in terms of patterns, texture, and colors. It has been our experience that fashion-forward thinkers are at the forefront of successful manufacturing businesses,” said Hoogland.

Scrapworks will unveil products for scrapbookers and card crafters in a variety of categories. Coordinating products including kits and collections feature colors and patters to suit the taste of crafter across the board.

“Scrapworks is offering a variety of products to suit the taste of more discerning and main-stream crafter. This show should be a impressive event. You come to CHA ready to show the best of your best. That’s a win for retailers and consumers, as well as manufacturers,” said Hoogland.
