My Craft Room



My name is Linda S. and here are a few pictures of my craft room.  I am sharing these on Live, Love Cards.  The first picture are shelves from Ikea where I store my stamp sets in CD & DVC cases, along with miscellaneous other craft supplies.  The paper storage unit is from Staples.
The second picture is my desk with my computer and printer, and then a table where I create.  Along side of the table is a set of drawers also from Ikea which holds my Inks.
The storage units on my table are from Michaels.
The third is just miscellaneous tables that hold my cutting board, Big Shot, Score board, photo box and books etc.  
So all of this room was once in a small 10 x 12 bedroom and this was my master bedroom.   I decided  to change my master bedroom into my crafting space and since I had no husband to protest that is what I did.  Why not, when I spend most of my time in here and just sleep now in the other room?  It is so nice and roomy, but funny I think I still could use more space.  I would like to have more organized storage spaces for the third picture, maybe in time.  Thanks for visiting my craft room.

Merry Monday #157 & The Glory of Christmas #58

I love it when a card comes together without any fuss or frustration. It's much prettier IRL.

Make It Monday #211 Using Gelatos (Chalk) with Stamps with Melissa

This is a technique by Melissa using gelatos.  Now, I have managed not to buy gelatos, so I had to improvise.  I used chalk.  Do you think it has the same effect?
I also forgot to use Linen cardstock.  Darn, that would have given it more texture.
You can watch her video Here 
 I had to try it on Linen cardstock, so made this tag with Basic Bookmark #3
I like the look and texture with the linen cardstock.
