Two people will receive the January 2010 kit from Creative Cards Homeschool.
Everyone needs cards and almost everyone has a need to be creative. What better time then the New Year to resolve to get creative each day. Creative Cards Homeschool takes that
concept and makes it easy for YOU to get creative. What started as a class at her local scrapbook store has
grown to be a small home based Card kit business. Deena is the creative mind behind the designs you will see
but this is truly a family affair. Everyone is working behind the scenes to make this a successful family business.
Their hope is to inspire creativity in each person that receives their kits. While all the hard wok is done for you, like
the designs, stamping, inking, glittering there's plenty of opportunities to give each card your personal touch. You'll find the latest paper, trendy shapes, unique supplies, and
quality workmanship in each and every kit.
Please visit our site and see all the beautiful cards and kits we offer each month. Our hope is that you'll join us and help us to
spread joy through creativity and giving handmade cards.

I saw a flock of birds flying the other day and it struck me how simple a reminder it is. That God made even the birds to remind us how we need each other. The bird flying solo outside the group had to work so much harder to cover the same distance. An inspiring reminder for me in this new year.

Actually, my word has been inspiring me. I've totally picked the right word for me this year. I'm all about getting past my procrastination habit and I picked my word (TODAY) for many reasons but it's totally helping me with the procrastination.

Several things have been inspiring me this year so far. One, is the Log Your Memory book I just purchased online. It has so many prompts that really make me stop and THINK. Also, I've been enjoying using up my stash of supplies and finding new ways to use it to document my year. My word for the year, SIMPLIFY, is also making an impact. I can honestly say that, for this past week, we have stayed at home and cooked a meal together rather than going out like we've normally done on a busy night. Best new dish of the year, steamed mussels with this amazing peppery sauce.

Id' love any of these but maybe Céline Navarro's book woulb be my favorite one since I'm a francophone. Since the beginning of 2010, I've been inspired by some friends and family members which I take exemple from to appreciate every challenges life brings to me («appreciate» is my word for 2010).
Thanks!

I have been inspired by organizing my storage area of the house. I had 6 boxes of trash and recycling and it was very freeing. I just got back from Target with some flat storage boxes to organize ribbons, buttons and office supplies in my studio. It was the classic discovery of stuff I forgot I had! The new boxes are clear and I do much better when I can see what I have. Luv your blog! Hope I win!

God is inspiring me. He's inspiring me to believe in myself, that I CAN do whatever I set my mind to. To stop procrastinaging and focus on what it is I want to do.
Your blog inspires me to also stop procrastinating and just DO IT!
Shimelle's blog inspires me. I've committed to doing the document:2010 challenge. I want to have a completed, meaningful album by the end of the year. I WILL have a completed, meaningful album by the end of the year.

YOU are an inspiration not only to me but to many, many others. I am a mother of 3 young children with another due in March. I love reading your blog. I have found that through the words and photos that you use, you have inspired me to do more creative projects with my children. Everyday, I am finding some time to do something with them, whether it be make something or do some scrapbooking. I find that I am regularly drawn to something that you have said or done. Thank you Ali, you help to make our family a little bit happier everyday!

Great giveaways and thanks for always sharing!
I am inspired by my desire to do more for myself, whether it be learning a new scrapbook technique, exercising, eating better or just becoming more organized. In order for me to be the best I can be for others I need to first start by taking care of myself. Here is to developing better habits this New Year!

I decided to do the project 365 this year. Although I do not post every day to my blog, I do bust out my camera to at least take a picture. I usually play catch up on the blog with the photos every few days. Taking at least one picture every day has inspired me to create more! I love my hobby, but sometimes struggle to find the time or the inspiration in my photos. Doing this project has given me A LOT of photos to work with!

I have been inspired by my 2010 word, story, it has encouraged me to take at least one picture a day and to journal eash day. Also as I have been packing away our Christmas decorations I have enjoyed jotting down stories and memories about special items for future layouts.

HELP!!!!!! A water pipe shattered due to this deep freeze we are in. My closet, master bath, and bedroom flooded. The good news is the damage could of been worse, were not all of my clothes in my closet on the floor acting as a dam. All of the clothes, shoes, bags that I wear were on the floor and utterly ruined. All of the things I don't wear or use hung in the closet, and did not get damaged at all. My husband thinks this was God's way of telling me I need to be better organized!! HELP PLEASE!!!
