The beginning of my Studio

It all started here.

I painted it all myself..walls, woodwork...you name it!!

Finally the cabinets arrived.

The flooring is here!!!

I love the flooring. It is so easy to upkeep.

My son, Nick, hooking up the plumbing.

My punches that I keep on Ikea's bygel rails.

My granite countertop...love it.

I love the upper cabinets. This idea came from Lori Mancini who lives in Canada.

The baskets inside the cupboard came from Thirty One.

I purchased these from Ikea...love love love them.

This is my travel wall. These are canvas pictures that I had made from some of my travels to Italy and Germany. I have many, many more to display.

I spent many, many months planning for my new studio. I got so many ideas from Stampin Up members and spending a ton of time on blogs looking for ideas. I'm posting pictures from the beginning.

Welcome to my blog

Wecome to my Stampin and Scrappin blog. Although I'm not new to blogging....I spend too much time looking for awesome ideas...... this is my first blog that I have created so with lots of patience I am ready to get started. I started scrapbooking several years ago and then in March of 2010, I joined Stampin Up with my sister, Peg Ireland as my upline. Even tho we live miles apart, we have a lot of fun on this adventure.
