  I registered a subdomain and paid the $12 fee. That sub was studiolasnubes.com which is my website. I misunderstood the instructions. I cancelled that transaction and then tried blog.studiolasnubes.com and it won’t take it. It says it is taken which I don’t think it is. How do I track down what is happening so I can connect this as my sub?

  In order to map a subdomain to your blog, you’ll need to add a CNAME record at your domain registrar to point it to the WordPress.com servers. For full instructions, please see:

  Once you’ve added a CNAME record, you should be able to map this subdomain to your blog via your Dashboard -> Store -> Domains page :)
