Organizing Tips for the 2015 Annual Catalog & New Events

It’s that time of year again. I love when the new catalog arrives since it gives me a reason to reorganize my crafting space. After all what feels better than a stamping space that makes things easy for you to create?

So here are some tools for you to use….. First my Designer Series Paper Chart – this chart keeps everything in one place for you so you can refer easily to what colors are needed or what colors you already have on hand. I like to post this where I can see it. I know that Stampin’ Up! has printed the names on the packages of Designer Series Paper, but that would mean I have to pull each one to look.

2015 – 2016 Annual Catalog Designer Series Paper Chart (printable PDF)

(I’ve actually started printing 2 of these – one I have where I can refer to it easily and the second I cut and attach to the outside of each folder I keep my Designer Series Paper in.)

Want labels? How about a printable Avery labels 5167 for your card stock? I use these for my hanging file folders.

2015 File Folder Labels (printable PDF)

New In Color and ink pads need labels too, and while I love the labels Stampin’ Up! provides, I like a little extra something to help things easily go back where they belong. These next labels I use to label my ink pads and storage drawers or anything else I want to use them for. They can be printed on Avery labels 5160 and punched out using our Word Window Punch.

They fit nicely on the end of your ink pads so that you’ve got a label on both sides. I also use them on my storage for daubers, sponges, and refills. (You can click HERE to see a video of how I store things.)

Stop on back by tomorrow and I’ll share some of my other organizational items with you.

Stamping, gifts, games, and prizes…. Oh, my!

Monday night I held a Special Event for everyone who earned their spot during Sale-a-bration. And everyone who earn a spot for my Sale-a-bration Celebration was able to bring a friend if they chose to. After all, what’s better than stamping with friends!

Here is the room ready and waiting for everyone to arrive.

Saleabration Celebration (4)

My friend, Susan showed me how to make these darling little tea cups filled with Hershey’s Hugs and Kisses on Sunday afternoon and I couldn’t resist making them for this event.

Saleabration Celebration (2)

Darling, right? Everyone who attended found one of these sweet tea cups at their seats.

Saleabration Celebration (1)

I also made these special little bags for those that earned a spot to put their projects in. Each bag had their name hanging from clothes pins. It was sooo easy since these bags were one of our past Paper Pumpkin Kits called In the Bag. I just love how everything is in the box!

And another special treat for those that earned a spot.

Saleabration Celebration (3)

And of course there were a few goodies to eat too.

Here are a couple of photos of everyone working on their make ‘n takes. Everyone who attended was able to stamp four cards.

Saleabration Celebration (5) Saleabration Celebration (6)

And we had to have games and prizes, right? So we played Name that Color. Everyone did great – have you ever tried to name all the colors?

Everyone was also able to earn tickets for the 3 door prizes. They chose what bucket to put their tickets into based on which item they wanted to win. Here is Genie with the “Grand Prize” a Hooray It’s Your Day Project Kit (139166) from the Occasions Catalog!

Saleabration Celebration (7)

Thank you Melanie for drawing the winners for me!

Want to see the projects we made? Stop by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing the cards with you.
