*~*My Crafty Space*~* Part 2

I'm excited to share with you the progress that I've made in the organization and set up of my craft room!  I'm still searching for the perfect "name" to my room so leave me a comment with your suggestion!

Since posting earlier in the week, I have reorganized my papers.  I pulled all my CTMH cardstock out of the file drawer that it was weighing down, sorted it by color, then put them in cropper hopper paper folders.  I put frome 1-3 colors in each folder depending on how much I have or use of that color.  Then I put them in my cubes by color (pink, red, orange/yellow, green, blue and purple.  I already had my neutrals sorted:  white, black, colonial white, neutrals and browns.  Then in the bottom cube is my random patterned papers, shaped papers and bling cardstocks. 




I also hung up my corkboard which has baggies of swap items. 



Here is the long awaited shelf/desk from IKEA!  I'm so thrilled to finally have this in my space :)  The table part is nice and big, holding my ink tower and my other essential tools and supplies.  I have not finalized what I'll keep in the shelves, but its coming together! 




Here's the view when you walk in my room.  My desk is in front of the window.  To the left of my desk is a whole lot of stuff that needs to be put away still, then a file cabinet, then the closet. 



And here's the wall that I face when I craft!  I LOOOOOOOVE having some of my favorite layouts framed!  I have them in a couple different rooms and they make me HAPPY! 



I'm working on putting something 3 more wall decor items- the first being for the wall above my cubes.  Its going to say CREATE. 

Stay tuned for more.....

CTMH- Everything ABC's Blog Hop- E is for Easter

Welcome to the Everything ABC's Blog Hop! For this hop we will be featuring the letter E. This may be the name of a paper, a stamp set or an embellishment. Whatever the crafter has chosen as their E element will be featured in their post. If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start at the beginning at Amber's blog ~ Scrapper's Therapy  If you came from Shelly ~ Just One Piece then you're on the right track! E is for EASTER You may recall a few months ago, I posted a couple layouts from the baby album I am making for my niece.... well she's now 3 months old and I only finished through 4 months!  I have some work to do..... Today I created an Easter Layout using THIS layout as my inspiration.  The Chantilly paper pack is perfectly girly and springy!  I cut two strips of the green pattern, then sliced it up to make it look like grass.  Using Art Philosophy, I cut out a bunch of different eggs in 1 1/2", 1 3/4" and ...

CTMH- Washi Tape Card

Do you WASHI???   Washi Tape is one of the new and super trendy products being used.  I'm not afraid to jump on the bandwagon :)  CTMH now has a Slate Polka-Dot Washi Tape (and I HOPE there are lots more to come!!!)  I also have picked up a couple others at Michaels recently. This weeks Color My Heart Color Dare is JUNIPER.  I decided to use Juniper as the accent color for my card today. I used the black banner stamp set from Artiste Kudos , CTMH's Slate Washi Tape , CTMH's Silver Shimmer Trim and a black arrow washi tape.  The sentiment is from Artiste Birthday , stamped in Juniper, then popped on foam tape. A simple card like this, called for some dressing up of the inside too.  I stamped Happy Birthday from Perfect Fit Birthday and added some Slate Washi Tape to the bottom. Head over to Color My Heart to check out the other color dare entries :)
