Where did that come from?

I've started to panic lately at the vast array of scrapbooking equipment and supplies that I own. Up until now, my organization system has kept me feeling in control of my addiction. I knew pretty much what I owned, and where it lived. Lately, I've noticed more and more product not fitting neatly into my methods. I'm loosing touch with what I have stashed away in the nooks and crannies. I have finally admitted that I may just have more stuff than I will ever be able to use in this lifetime.
Although I can honestly say I love 80-90 percent of the products I own, many of them are not in line with my usual whimsical style, and often get overlooked. Thank goodness I have friends who recognize my problem, and force help me to use up some things I normally wouldn't.
Here is a page created from a page kit assembled for me (from my own stash) by my buddies JJ and Claude:

I got to finally get some of my collection of Basic Grey into my trimmer, and use up the new buttons I've been hoarding. Best of all, I scrapped a photo that I would have kept putting off because it wasn't in line with the bright happy papers I'm usually knee deep in.

Oh! JJ? Claude? I only have one question...Where the heck did that tag come from? I has so much fun stamping and altering it, I want to know if I own more before I go out and buy some more...
