I have been inspired lately by the large amount of writing utensils in my house, especially my preschooler's thick, triangular colored pencils.

I am in an inspiration deficit right now. Really looking forward to school starting and having time to organize 'my space' and preparing for the creative juices to flow.

Lately my inspiration has been the water that encloses this city (New Orleans). As we come closer to the 4th anniv. of Hurricane Katrina, it seems that lately I am always crossing the waters that surround us (the Mississippi River or Lake Pontchartrain). We walk on the river levee sometimes and it is amazing to watch the river activity. Last night I had to cross the river and the lights up and down the river were a beautiful sight to see.

I am inspired right now by a lot of new photos that we took on our vacation and some great looking kits by different blogs. Were headed to a outside shopping area today and there is a new-ish scrap store that I am looking forward to wandering around in - and finding some cool new products!
