My Vision Tray for 2012

Wednesday, January 4, 2012



I've been seeing Vision Boards pop up everywhere. Oprah even talked about it on her Life Skills class. Instead of doing the traditional New Year's Resolutions this year, I though I'd make myself a Vision Tray instead.


This majority of this tray is filled with yummy goodies from the American Crafts - Amy Tangerine line.

Here's a breakdown of what each compartment
of the tray means to me...

This tray represents ME!
{she even has a tan just like mine...LOL}


This tray represents my goal to improve my sewing skills.
{My friend Patti is going to help me with this one}


This tray represents my "Get Moving" goal.
{This means more walking and biking to stay healthy}


This tray is a reminder to "Take One Day at a Time!"
I always have a "to-do list" swirling around in my head.

{I actually dropped this yellow key and put a crack in it. I think it adds a little vintage feel to the design}


This tray will remind me to take more pictures & make more layouts this year! {I make way too many cards and altered projects and really want to branch out a little}


That's it for my 2012 Vision Tray. I have bookmarked this post so that I can come back throughout the year to check on my progress.

Wish me luck!!! :)

What a cool idea! I haven't seen any of these vision trays yet, and I just love the idea. I'm not much of a resolution person, so this is more up my alley. And what a gorgeous creation, Angi! Your tray is stunning. Love the colors and papers. Love the canvas. Fabulous!
