More Craft Storage

Coloured Cardstock Storage Tub And Drawers

I have a portable storage crate that I keep a few sheets of each Stampin’ Up! colour in.  Here it is.  I can grab it and take it to the spot I’m working in, or even shove it in the boot if I’m off to do some craft with someone else. Each colour family has its own manila folder colour, plus another for the neutrals/specialty papers and another for the in colours. I’ve used my trusty just about worn out Dymo labeller to make labels for each folder.  Easy to flick through and find the colour I’m after.

Here’s a look at where I keep full packs of my coloured cardstock. I managed to put this together and wedge it into a spare space.

My sister Lisa and I have both decided that we enjoy arranging and rearranging our craft supplies almost as much as we enjoy playing with them! Any other craft storage buffs out there? Anyway – I have a couple of drawers for each colour family, the neutrals and one for specialty papers such as vellum and metallics and so on.  I think that should keep me well and truly stocked up for classes in 2009. 

Hannah’s Card

Hannah’s broken arm hasn’t stopped her getting lots of craft fun happening!  This is a card she made yesterday.  She’s used one of last year’s SaleABration sets – Friendship Blooms.

And she wanted me to post her latest scrapbooking efforts.  I think she’s gotten more done than me this week.  Here’s the title page she made for her new album. She rescued some circle photos of Jack from the scrap pile (from my Christmas card making) and added some photos from the ‘spare photos’ pile.

(Plaster comes off next week!)  OK better go.  Hannah and I are enjoying ‘The Magic Faraway Tree’ and I think its time for another chapter.

Cheers, Sue
