so bloggers, have you had those moments when you're making stuff that you just start looking through other stuff for more inspiration? i call it "the dig"… when you're just digging and scouring around looking for just the right thing that you've tucked away for just the right project in just the right color to give you just the right look! oh please, you know exactly what i'm talking about. i admit, i'm guilty of stock piling lots of cool treasures too, but in my defense i actually use my stuff – it just so happens that i buy it faster than i can use it. i can't help myself! so i thought i would show you a pic of (one of many) digging grounds in my studio. this is a clear shoe rack hanging on the back of the door with lots of pockets to tuck things away in. i have them stuffed with all sorts of cool and eclectic finds from the newest of things, to stuff from companies of days gone by. it's a great way to look at everything at once and see it all – even the doo-dads shoved into the bottom of the pockets. so here is where i've been finding myself lately just digging and searching for the right accent to finish my projects – i find this very inspiring at times…
another thing i find inspiring is reading all of your comments. wow, how cool is that to actually have comments to read just because! i like the fact that many of you commented on on the post because you liked the idea, felt inspired yourself, and just plain enjoyed the blog. thank you! and like i said, you never know when i may give some stuff away, so congrats to the today's winners from yesterday's comments. i'll be sending you some distress stickles, a heap of prima collage flowers, and a set of my visual artistry stamps just because you took the time to post a comment. remember i do this blog for you, so i honestly enjoy hearing from you. i believe in one very important thing in life – you get what you give…t!m
congrats to the following winners! please email me your contact info so i can send out your prize:
Ohh so pretty! I have to admit, I am a junkie for the Distress Stickles. They are so pretty and it just brings all projects to a new level.

sparkle, glitter, glitz – love these flowers! Will do up a few myself! Can't wait to see what you will be doing with them!

ooooh la la. Love your flowers. I always appreciate how your products have such versatility. As a consumer, it is a refreshing change to build on what we already own. Adding Distress Stickles or Rock Candy to what we already own, changes the affect so much. Thanks Tim. And BTW, you are a tease!!!

Very pretty and sparkly!!!!!!!!!!
The store where I teach has sold out of Rock Candy several times, every time I demo it or use it in a class. Everyone thinks it is pretty awesome. It really is pretty and awesome!!!!!!!!! Thanks for another tease.

LOVE the Distress Stickles even more than the regular ones! Is that possible??? These look like they've been kissed by the evening stars – just a hint of glimmer & glitz. They'd look great on ANY project!
