INSPIRATION STATION

Hey, everyone!!

This is the LAST day of 2009! I am READY for a NEW year with FRESH starts and new BEGINNINGS! Each year I make some resolutions and hope to accomplish a long list of goals but one of them I intend to keep is becoming more organized with my craft supplies! After a decade of scrapbooking and now stamping I have a lot of supplies! Over the years I have accumulated a LOT of things and it can get overwhelming to create cards and scrapbook pages when I can't find what I need! That is what I LOVE about this idea I found on Michelle Wooderson's blog! It's called an INSPIRATION STATION and you can read all about that HERE. Michelle has put together an Inspiration Station that totally blows me away! I love it! I mean, how kewl is that? A station in your craft space to inspire creativity!! This is my first attempt at creating one but here is a look at mine:
Tags from More Mimi (paper collection from The Angel Company), miscellaneous wood mounted stamps...some of which I have dismounted so I could use them with my creative cling, a stamp set from other companies including TAC and even included a little bling that I'd love to use for some projects coming up!

More Mimi tags (again), retired stamp sets from The Angel Company that I have bought, or been given, since becoming an Angel!
Here are some current TAC stamp sets that I store in CD cases! I love storing them like this. The wood mounted stamp is one I picked up at a craft store.
The So Sweet unmounted stamp is very well loved! I scrub it but that is as clean as I can get it. It's a favorite one for sure! The buttons are red and pink and I put them together in a clam shell case from The Angel Company. I love that I can easily see what I have! The little treat holder was so much fun to make! I have a couple of More Mimi tags...these are all double sided so I have twice the options for the price of one! LOVE THAT!
A close-up of the More Mimi tags, stamps, pearls and embellishments! I love the boy and girl stamp set. I used that for a candle I made for my husband.
Who doesn't love ribbon, right? Look at all those yummy colors and designs! I am very excited about having my Bow-Easy now so I can create beautiful bows with these beautiful ribbons!! That is all that I have to share for you today but the fun doesn't stop here!!! Click on over to Christina's blog and check out her AWESOME INSPIRATION STATION and let her inspire you to create one of your own! If you make one, leave us a link because we'd love to see it!

I'm having my brother over and we're going to just chill out at home, eat some finger foods, some Taco Soup, play games, let everyone beat me on the Wii....and ring in the New Year at home, where it's safe! LOL So whatever you do and no matter how you choose to celebrate, be careful and have fun! I wish you all a very happy and prosperous NEW YEAR and I look forward to seeing you soon!!!!!!

Hugs,
