Damask Diva's August Blog Hop

Hello friends! I sure hope you are enjoying the Damask Diva's August
blog hop featuring the brand-new paper pack from Close To My Heart
called Chalk It Up! It is so much fun! If you came from Cydney Fowler's blog
then you are in the right place! If you have just stumbled on this hop, 
you can start from the beginning by doing to the Damask Diva's Page.

Here is a card I made using Chalk It Up and following the week 4 sketch
from Viva la Verve. I also used some bubble stickers from the
Chalk It Up Assortment. They are my fav assortment in this new book!
I used a new stamp set called You Mean the World to Me. 
It comes with four sentiment stamps that are all about 2x2 in size. 
The inside sentiment is from the same set. 
I used CTMH Exclusive Inks in lagoon, sorbet, and black.

My New Studio!

Hello crafty friends! Hope y'all are doing great! So I am finally
finished (or almost finished anyways) with my new scraproom! I like
to call it my studio... Hubby said it sounds cooler lol!
I thought I'd share a few pics with y'all!

Here is the view of the whole room.
Most everything that isn't a craft product came from Ikea.

Here is the crafty corner:


Computer corner:

 And reading corner minus the nightstand and lamp that will eventually
make their way here once I get the new ones for the bedroom:
