Inspiration in a Box

So the last couple of days while, while the kids have been in school, I have been working to decorate and organize my stamping studio. I have such a nice space in this house and I am having fun making it MINE. So I was having trouble deciding on a color combo for my room. That is, until I saw this......

I found this box at Bed, Bath and Beyond and I instantly was in LOVE!!!! So I am now using this box as the inspiration for my stamping studio. And the colors are Baja Breeze and Chocolate Chip! So YUMMY!!!!

And since I loved the box so much, I decided to use it as inspiration for a card too.....

I know it is super simple, but for some reson I am in love with this card!

The card is 5 1/4x 5 1/4 again. I stamped the Medalion stamp twice- once in Chocolate Chip and once in Baja Breeze. Then I just cut the center circle out of the Baja Breeze one and put it on dementionals. I added a Chocolate Chip button and linen thread. The banner was made by cutting a thin strip of Baja Breeze and using my photo corner punch on each end. Then I added a bunch of demensions (some two high). To finish it all off I did some sponging with Chocolate Chip ink.

Now I think I NEED the Medalion Decor Element for my stamping studio!!! Pictures will be coming soon! Progress is slow is since the kids only go to school for a few hours a day. Not much ME time yet!
