Finished Studio

A long while back I posted the beginning of the scraproom makeover. While I would say the finishing touches have been done for about a month or two so its probably time to post those pictures as well.

There is a lot of workspace and a good amount of storage, it seems snug looking from the outside in but when you are in there creating you don't notice the coziness of the room.

Furniture: Ikea
Shelves: Target


Storage: Joanne's, Sears and some miscellaneous stuff.

Okay, one more pair

At the request of his mom - I whipped up one more pair of cuffs to keep another set of hands warm for my baby nephew Holdan. Let's hope we don't need these much longer!

The Loot

Yay!! My prize arrived today - any mail that isn't a bill is always good mail!

What was in the box:
2 sets of stamps plus one individual stamp
2 premade titles
A few packs of stickers
A set of markers
2 packs of metal embellishments
A back issue of CK that I didn't have (so Crystal if I borrowed you Jan 2010 its all yours :-))
An official your part of the flock pin

Cuff Queen

This week I went to my second knitting class and had a great instructor - Carmen, she taught us way more then the class said it would which was great! So this week I learned how to increase, decrease, and 2 new stitches as well as what books are good references and how to read patterns! My next couple projects are going to be way more exciting then scarves and cuffs, but it is still nice to finish something in a day so today I whipped up a pair of cuffs for a friend. I have to say I think I am the Cuff Queen after 5 pairs and they are fun to make so this will stay in my repertoire.



Supplies:
Lion Brand Thick and Quick Yarn in Spice
Size 13 Needles
Large-eye plastic yarn needle

Finally Scrapped

It started last weekend and after a week under some books to keep everything stuck down, it is done! (Click on the photo to see what it says)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Cards

Had a couple birthdays and of course Valentine's Day. Birthday cards were inspired by a Basic Grey card making class I took a while back at Archivers. The "lips" card was from Better Homes and Gardens. Their lips were a little more shapely then mine, but hey it was my first try :-)
