City Crafter Challenge Blog Week 440 and New Craft Room Reveal

This week at City Crafter Challenge Blog, the theme is P-P-Pick up a Penguin, here's my very first penguin stamp from Avery Elle....


the background paper is from Jillibean Soup....


the snowflakes on the background are from Papertrey Ink, a mini stamp set called "places, please"


the frame die is from Papertrey Ink as well, and I used a die from My Creative Time to create the snow hill and them filled it with Martha Stewart Tinsel Glitters.

I hope you could join in the fun this week at City Crafter Challenge Blog


Before I go, a peek into my craft room in our new house.


we only have two extra bedrooms in the main house of this new house, they are the Jack and Jill room, which means, both room has their own vanity sink attached but they are connected with one bathroom/toilet, we make the room looking out the backyard the guest room and I used this one facing the south side of the yard as my craft room/office space, I leave lots of space for a futon just in case we need an extra guest room, so I limit my storage unit to only one side of the wall....


I got myself only one Ikea Alex unit and reuse all the storage units I have at the old house....



keeping the old wall unit near the door to the bathroom, I do have an extra storage near the vanity sink.....



this room also has a walk in closet, so I get more storage for my crafting stuff, except I really haven't find time to organize them yet....


since this is not just craft room but also my office where I prepare my class work as well as browsing the Internet, so I spend a lot of time in here and really need a TV...... an old one we used to have in our old guest room but sitting on a new Ikea storage unit.


Right now, I still have tons of boxes sitting in the Casita as well as the walk in closet of the other bedroom, therefore, I am trying to sell as much as I could, check them out HERE!!!!
