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.

(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.

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.

Organizational Items for the 2015 Occasions Catalog

Who doesn’t like being organized? I know I do and I’ve got a couple of organizational items that I’ve whipped up for the NEW 2015 Occasions Catalog to help you out.

This first item is for our new Designer Series Paper found in the Occasions Catalog and the Sale-a-bration brochure – It’s a chart that contains the coordinating Designer Series Paper colors. Quick and Easy and a great reference for when you are trying to decide what colors are in the paper.

What’s Your Type? and More Organizational Items

I’ve got some more organization items for you, but first I wanted to share a card that I received recently from my friend Anna. Check out this great new stamp set from the 2014-2015 Annual Catalog, What’s Your Type?

What's Your Type

What’s Your Type? (135747) is one of our cool new Photopolymer stamp sets that you’ll find in the 2014-2015 Annual Catalog. Photopolymer make things really easy to line up. It’s also a two-step stamp set. The What’s Your Type? is a little different however, because not only can you add addition dimension by stamping in two colors, but you can make really cool words and designs.

Anna used the same image and stamped it twice, lining up the images edges to create shapes for this card using the line pieces. Cool, right? (Check out page 161 in the catalog to see even more ideas.)

You can find the supply list for this card below. But I wanted to share some organizational items that I promised you yesterday first.

This first one is a Accessories Index for the 2014-2015 Annual Catalog. I know that Stampin’ Up! has provided us with two great indexes right in the catalog this year, but I got such wonderful feedback last year with the one I created, I thought I would update it any way to share. Choices, use one or both, either way choices are a good thing!

These next two items allow you to label your Framelits and store them in our Clear Mount Cases (119105). You just print them out and cut before adding them to our Clear Mount Cases. You can click HERE to see a video showing you how from an earlier post.

NEW 2014 – 2015 Annual Catalog Organizational Items

Its that time of year again! Now that the NEW 2014-2015 Annual Catalog has gone live and if you already have your copy you want to get organized, right?

Well I know I love to organize my crafting space periodically and a new catalog is a great time to do it.  So today I’ll be sharing some of the items that I use to organize my crafting space.

First let me say, if you don’t have your 2014 – 2015 Annual Catalog yet, contact me by email at [email protected] to learn how to get yours! You’ll want your own copy of this catalog since it has some wonderful NEW products!

Ok – here it goes. The first item I love to have are labels. Lots of labels for everything. You see I’m a bit OCS as my friend JoAnn says – for those of you not familiar with the term that’s Obsessive, Compulsive, Stamper! LOL

These card stock labels will help you organize your paper drawers. They can be printed on Avery labels 5195, or the equivalent of that label.

2014 File Folder Labels (printable PDF)

These next labels I use to label my ink pads and 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.)

2014 Color Labels (printable PDF)

The last item I’m going to share with you today is a reference chart for the Designer Series Paper. Although our Designer Series Paper now has the colors listed in every package I like to have a quick reference chart on my desk that shows me all the colors at a glance.

Luau Beach Bag Tutorial

Here is a cute little Luau Beach Bag treat holder that I made for everyone who attended my Luau Catalog Launch last weekend. If you forgot yours – don’t worry I’ll be tucking it in with your order.

I thought that the In Colors this year went perfectly with a beach theme so I pulled out my NEW In Color Collection Designer Series Paper Stack (item 130136). The colors are so yummy – they remind me of the summer or sherbet, how about you? And don’t you just love the new patterns? The chevron in particular is right on trend and I thought was perfect for this little bag.

And if you haven’t already seen it you’re going to fall in love with the new 3/8″ Ruffle Stretch Trim that comes in all 5 In Colors this year! Isn’t it just too stinking cute? I’m finding I’m reaching for it all the time to use in my projects.

I had a lot of fun making these little treats that contain 2 pieces of chocolate for everyone. So without further ado here is my Luau Beach Bag Tutorial Video.

Spring Catalog Designer Series Paper Chart

Did you know that our Designer Series Paper now has the colors that are used in the paper printed right on the tag board insert? Well they do. Stampin’ Up! has heard our requests and added this for our convenience.  With this addition to our Designer Series Paper I figured you wouldn’t want the chart anymore. However, I’ve had several requests recently for my 2013 Spring Catalog Designer Series Paper Chart. It was great to hear that this is an important resource for some of you. I know I still use it as one of my organizational items since the chart puts all the information in one place.

So, although this is a little bit late, here it is my 2013 Spring Catalog Designer Series Paper Chart.

Getting Organized with the New 2012-2013 Catalog

Did you notice that the new 2012-2013 Catalog doesn’t have an Accessory Index? This is something that I use all the time since I have CRS. That simply means I can’t remember stuff according to my kids. It’s a running joke in our house since my teenagers seem to have it too. I notice it a lot when I mention the chores they haven’t done – seems they can’t remember me telling them to do them. Sound familiar?

 

Anyhow…. If you’re like me and use the index for a handy reference so you don’t have to remember what page things are on – here is a handy PDF that you can print and add to your catalog to make things easier.
