Today I’ll be sharing with you my Die Case Inserts for our coordinating dies. I like the fact that these sit on my shelf with the stamp sets and have the same look. All nice and neat!
If the Die set is large I’ll add a second magnetic sheet to the other side of the case so I have plenty of room. The magnetic sheets are vent covers that I picked up at my local hardware store and cut down.
I simply print these Case Inserts off on Whisper White card stock, then trim and insert. Click HERE to learn more about that.
Here are Die Case Inserts for all the Dies found in the 2021 Annual Catalog – If you find an error or there is a problem please let me know so I can correct it for you.
And if you prefer to keep the dies with your stamp set on your shelf you can check out my double case storage tip HERE that I shared with you earlier – there is even a video to show you how to do yours.

Today I’ve got some wonderful items to help make organizing your craft space easier for you while you’re waiting for those fun new colors and products to arrive. I’ve done this with each NEW Annual Catalog launch for years (you can find past items by looking under the organization category) and I hope you’ll find them useful too.
First I’ve created a quick reference for the Designer Series Paper. I like this chart and keep it handy when I’m looking for the colors in the Designer Series Paper. Everything you need is on this one easy chart.
2021-2022 Annual Catalog Designer Series Paper Chart PDF
I actually print this twice and cut one apart to put with my Designer Series Paper since the printing is bigger than what comes on the tag board backer. You can also keep my Design Tools & Color Swatch Books on your desk or with it too for easy reference. (I do both since I tend to bury the swatch book under everything on my desk when I’m creating, lol).
2020-2021 Annual Catalog Color Collection Inventory Chart
Want a quick way to know what colors you have on the go? I love this purse sized inventory list for keeping my items handy, so I’m sharing it with you. It’s got all of our color families even the two In Color Families. Simply print, score, then fold to create a tri-fold reference chart that you can tuck in your purse
Tip: Make sure when you are printing this chart to turn the second side so that it prints upside down. That way both sides will be in the same direction when using.
Labels, Labels, Labels – I love labels and these make things so easy. I like to have everything consistent so with the NEW 2021 Catalog. I have created new labels for my hanging file folders, Refill drawers, daubers, and my Classic Ink Pads.
2021 Annual Catalog File Drawer Labels (Avery 5167) PDF
Stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing more items to get you started along with my Dies Case Organizational Items with you.

When your shares/swatch book order fills, I will email a PayPal invoice for payment process (around April 26th). I will then place my order with Stampin’ Up! once payment is received for the shares/swatch book.
PayPal is easy — and a PayPal account is not required to make your payment. Just an email address and credit/debit card. When you receive your PayPal invoice by email, you can choose to pay using your PayPal funds or by a credit/debit card. Simply follow their instructions to make your payment via the method that is most convenient for you. It should be simple!

Are you big on games? I can’t remember a time when I didn’t play cards or board games. As a child my sister and I played Chinese Checkers for hours, as a teenager Gin Rummy and Sheepshead became a way to keep busy while we waiting for the meets to begin and later on the weekends when visiting friends in college as we watched the newest fad MTV, something everyone could agree on in the common room. As an adult I loved to play games with my own children, our daughter has been come quite a shark at Gin and was the only one who could best my Mother-in-law. How about you? Do you have have fond memories of playing games too?
Today’s cards all highlight games and were stamped with our retiring stamp set Game On (152646).
This first card is a fun easel fold using a classic color combination of Basic Black and Reeal Red.
And this next card is done in Rich Razzleberry with a pop of gold coming from the Metallic Pearls (146282) used on the sentiment that has been punched out using the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch (152883).
And finally this classic Basic Gray and Very Vanilla chess card
The Game On set is only available until May 3rd or while supplies last since it is part of the Retirement List and then it will be gone forever. So why not check it out today?
And as promised here is another sneak peak at the
2021 In Colors Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen
Let’s take a look at these 2 new greens that are part of our 2021-2023 In Colors. I really like them by themselves, and love them teamed up together! The colors this year I think have a subtle grey undertone which gives them a more vintage feel. Check out the Soft Succulent here with some of our other greens.
This next group shows you our 2020 In Color Just Jade for a comparison of the 2 together
Totally different, right? Which is why I’m excited about this addition of green. And now for the Evening Evergreen. I’ve given you a grouping with our darker greens for comparison.
I think you are really going to like the Evening Evergreen and think it will make a nice addition to our more neutral colors for basic stamping too.
So what do you think? Like the new colors? If you missed yesterday’s post you’ll want to check it out since I gave you a look at first two In Colors Fresh Freesia and Polished Pink. And don’t forget and make sure to stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing the last of the 2021-2023 In Colors Pale Papaya with you and some more comparisons too.
