One Thing Leads To Another

December 5, 2011

The Fixx said it back in 1983.  And now it’s my turn.  As I run around my office in an attempt to get everything ready for the holidays I stumbled upon this picture.  I’m speaking of the one posted above, cute isn’t he?  What I actually found was a stack of these photos all the same size and image.  I had originally attached them to cardstock for a greeting card but later found that I had so many of that card already.  So, what can I create with them? They have been sitting on the “to-do” pile for quite some time.  To throw them away just isn’t an option.
I looked at them everyday for a couple of weeks.  How could I recycle these into something creative?  My muse was clearly sitting on my shoulder as I looked at them.  I believe she was almost laughing at me.  Then it happened.  A childhood *memory* flashed before my eyes.  Then I found myself laughing as well.  The inspiration started to flow like someone tipped over a 10 gallon bucket of water.  And it continues to flow.  They will make an adorable Christmas gift and then they will find their place in one of my Etsy shops.
Have you ever had one idea which then leads to another and another….?  Funny how things work.  So, as I was writing this post the group, The Fixx, came in mind.  Go ahead and click their link above and enjoy the video.
Oh, as for what I’m creating.  You’ll just have to wait and see.  I did give you a couple of clues.  Anyone have a guess?
Have a great day!

    that was a good song! And that picture is SOOO CUTE!!!! I want one. Well, actually we have enough of a menagerie now, but that puppy is adorable.

    I cleaned out my work space the other day and just seeing all the supplies one idea led to another. But I didn't write them down, and now most are gone. C'est la vie, n'est pas?

    Thanks!

    If you could only see all the notes I end up with each day.

    Perhaps my biggest goal for 2012 is putting all those ideas to good use:)
