inspiration monday

every once in a while i come up with what i think is a really great idea......and i've decided that instead of trying to keep it stored in the archives of my memory banks, i'm going to start writing it down!  (seems like the perfect excuse to sit down and create a fun journal page......what could be more inspiring than to get out the microns, watercolor pencils.....and chocolate?!)

 here's a better look at a cute little tag i made using 
of my new rubber stamps!

hope your day is filled with great and inspiring ideas!!
journal page finished using micron pens, watercolor pencil, 4B graphite pencil, pan pastel, decorative paper, ribbon, great idea stamp

  1. Absolutely a great idea. However, I have way too much cleaning up to do - to make way for the tree.
    You really do come up with some terrific ideas.

  2. OMG!! This is a challenge for me, because once i get chocolate, it's GONE, DOWN THE GULIVER, disappeared, hardly shared!! To last 30 minutes with my m&m's can only happen when I'm in the right mindset.....but hey, I'm up for the challenge!! Love your new stamp, Lori :D
