How I store my stamps
















I always get messages asking me how I store my rubber stamps. Very easy I will show you if you ignore my mess. I am in the middle of rearranging. Yesterday the beige shelf you will see my rubberstamp binders on almost fell over cause it was too heavy HAHA. I had all my cardstock and sizziz dies on it along with a million other heavy things. Anyways so I flipped it around so it tilts now towards the wall and replaced it with my stamp binders.



So anyways the picture with all the binders are my stamps. They are labeled by maker normally or else designer. As you can see maybe names in the single row I took. When one gets full I either get a 2 inch binder or just get another one and label it the same. Also I use the 8 x 11 clear pages and put in either the index label that comes with which I am showing Victoria Case's now because she has the best index labels that I have seen come with stamps since they are colored. I tape them to a 8 x 11 sheet of paper and then put them in the protectors. I put my stamps on ezmount and stick them to my acrylic pages see pictures you can enlarge any of them you want by clicking on them. Tomorrow I will post how I store my ribbon, markers and punches.

High Hopes - Watermelons




Well my eyes are still healing so I have been trying to take it easy on them. It was wierd the first day or few days I could see perfect and now I have been having difficulty focusing. From all the reading I have been doing it they say its normal and it takes a few weeks for your eyes to heal. My drivers license expired last months so I am hoping they heal very soon so I can go and get another one. I didn't do as many cards this week as normal but did a couple.
This is a Watermelon card I did from High Hopes isn't it too cute.

My husband bought me a Kindle and I got it yesterday they are so cool. They are put out by Amazon. You download books straight from there also which are cheaper than paperback books and they back them up for you so they are always there.
