It's that time of year when you get to earn free Stampin' Up! product with every $50 you order in a single order (some item may require a $100 order).
Also, when you place a qualifying hostess order, you'll earn an additional $25 of free product on top of what you'd normally earn as an hostess. See page 3 of the 2019 SAB catalog.

As a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, I love having all current Stampin' Up! cardstock, all current ink pads, all current refills and all current Stampin’ Blends markers. That way I can coordinate my projects with the Designer Series papers. Having all current colors also allows me to create color combos I find online, in magazine pictures or even in my clothes closet.
Of course, each time there's a color renewal, like in the release of the 2018-19 Stampin’ Up! annual catalog, I need to reorganize everything. Like my cardstock, I organize my ink pads and markers by the rainbow method. See my ink pads below.
Click here to shop for all Stampin' Up! ink products currently available.
All of my wood storage shelf units (for stamps, ink pads, punches and markers) are from StampNStorage, who is currently offering a 10% discount for their 10th anniversary. They have storage solutions to suit nearly any paper crafting enthusiast.
I store my ink refills, aka reinkers, in wood-mount stamp cases. I sort my reinkers alphabetically since sorting by the rainbow method isn't feasible. The ink colors are too color saturated to tell which they are without reading the label.
After sharing about my reorganized cardstock yesterday, I realized that I needed to reorganize my ribbons and trims too. The clear plastic containers I store my ribbons and trims in were from Costco. I haven’t seen them there lately, but I know you can get similar containers at Office Depot or The Container Store, to name just a couple sources.

As with papers and ink, I like to have a lot of trims. I could probably fit them all in just 2 containers, but as you’ll notice in the 6 pictures directly above, you can clearly see the contents in each of the 3 containers from the top and side views. Sometimes finding things easily is more important, and expedient, than saving space.
Organizing things in a way that works for you really is important. You’ll not only save space when your things are tidy, you’ll also save a lot of time. Sure, organizing can be time consuming, but you’ll make up that time in the long run when you know right where to go for that specific thing you need at any given time.
BTW, you don’t have to buy anything fancy, and certainly not expensive, to be organized. Much of my tools, materials and supplies are organized and stored in upcycled food storage containers. I mostly use clear plastic, but there are some things I store in cardboard boxes. Organizing your things just depends on your available space and budget and how you prefer to work when you’re feeling creative.

Gosh! I thought I shared about this already! Apparently not, so, here you go . . .
With the release of the 2018-19 Stampin' Up! annual catalog, the colors of their consumables, IE papers, inks, trims, etc. were revamped. So it was time I reorganize all if my papers. Firstly, I made sure to order all of the new colors of 8 1/2” x 11” cardstock, including the 2018-2020 In Colors and any current colors I was missing. Secondly, I separated all of the retired colors from the current colors, to store separately. I have very little 12” x 12” cardstock, so I keep it in a handy 12” x 12” storage container available at the big craft stores.
Lastly, I completely re-sorted my current cardstock. I keep all of my 8 1/2” x 11” cardstock in a file cabinet for easy access and protection from dust. I used to sort alphabetically by color name, but now I organize it by the colors of the rainbow. The rainbow method makes it easier to see all the colors I have in any given hue, thus saving me time.
As you can see in the picture above, I keep a single color, including scraps, in each hanging folder and I label each folder with the color name. I positioned all of the labels along the left side, allowing as much work space as possible to set a work-in-process when looking for matching/coordinating cardstock.
Isn’t the side view of my cardstock drawer pretty?! As I stand at my work bench, conveniently to the right of my file cabinet, I never know which color will inspire me next.
I don’t always have much 12” x 12” or 6” x 6” patterned (DPS) or solid specialty papers (glimmer, metallic foil, etc.), so I keep them in a vertical desktop organizer. I like them in view and handy so I remember to use them.
Huh! Now that I think about it, I’m need to reorganize my ribbons & trims by color instead of by style. That should be more convenient and prettier too. See tomorrow's post for details on that.
Thanks for stopping by!
