Organizating your Ink & More

I’ve shared some of my past organizational items that I’ve been using for years the last couple of days for the NEW 2023 Annual Catalog and so today I thought I’d share something new with you, my Stampin’ Blends Labels.

Yes, I finally sat down and created this file for myself and it includes all the current 2023 Stampin’ Blends including the Natural Tones all in one place. This PDF is simple to use, simply print it off onto a piece of Basic White Card stock and cut it into strips so that your punch will slide in on each side.

Then simply punch out the color you need and use a Mini Glue Dot to attach it to your cap.

Yep, it is that quick and simple! Now I just need to make sure to put them right side up in their spots so I can read them lol.

Stampin’ Blends Labels PDF

And if you want to see how I use the storage for the Stampin’ Blends I shared that with you HERE.

Yesterday I shared with you my Labels that I use for almost everything lol and some of you had some questions about my card stock box and why there were little silver clips on some of the folder. (You can click HERE to see the labels and that post)

The answer is a quick and easy one – inventory. These little silver binder clips tell me that I have a new package of card stock waiting in the wings. I picked up this tip years ago from a fellow crafter and find it very useful as it is a quick and easy visual cue to let me know that I need to order that color when the file folder gets a bit thin.

Speaking of those labels – My ink pads needed a bit of sprucing up with those new labels. I love to make it easy to find where things go ink my ink rack.

Not only can I quickly see the name but also the color ink pad that is hiding on my desk when I clean up. I simply cut a bit of card stock down to fit in the slot add the label and use add a strip of Stampin’ Seal or a Mini Glue Dot to the front to hold it down.

And last but not least, the labels that come on the underside of the pad. How do you use them?

Our pads now have 2 names of the color in English. Now I can not only put the name on the end of the pad, but also along the top edge so I can see it when it’s closed or when it’s open and I’m stamping.

I love the fact that Stampin’ Up! looks at small details like this to make crafting easier. How about you?

I hope you’ve enjoyed my organizational items for the Color Refresh and the 2023 Annual Catalog and find them helpful.

It’s back – Storage by Stampin’ Up!

I’m so excited to have our Storage by Stampin’ Up! back and available to order. I really love the pieces I already have and am excited to be able to build on them.

Our new storage is modular, so it gives us tons of options to individualize it to our crafting space and needs. And we can build it as our budget allows – which is a win, win!

If you haven’t already seen the individual pieces you’ll want to.

And great news in playing with my storage pieces I’ve customized mine with an simple additional step to make things even easier for me.

Now with a quick look I I can things back in their place – After all I love to organize things, as you know. And today I’m sharing it with you – So here is what I’ve come up with.

Can you see what I’ve added? I like to have things put back in their place and visually see what I’ve left laying out on my desk – and laying around my creative space. I seem to be a “messy” creative person. Sound familiar? I think that is a lot of us. LOL!

It’s simple I’ve simply added a piece of card stock and one of my organizational labels to the bottom of my Ink Pad & Marker Storage Trays! Super simple, right? And now anyone can put things where they belong with a quick glance!

And I’ve done the same thing to my Stampin’ Blends Storage Trays so that as I build my collection I can put them right back in their spots!

Because these trays come apart this process is a easy one. And when you want to change the labeling system it will be easy too. Simply take them apart and replace the card stock colors as needed.

Want to do this too? Here are the measurements for you-

Ink Pad & Marker Storage Trays

• Cut each piece of card stock to 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″

• Then add one of my Annual Catalog File Drawer Labels that you can find and print HERE that I shared with you earlier.

• Add a bit of Snail or a Mini Glue Dot to each piece of Card Stock and adhere to the shelf.

Stampin’ Blends Storage Trays

• Cut each piece of card stock to 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ (perfect for those strips we have left over)

• Add a bit of Snail or Mini Glue Dot to each piece of Card stock and adhere to the slot

Yep! it’s that simple – and not only will you know exactly where your supplies go, you’ll also have a beautiful array of colors showing in those spots that are empty while you are crafting too!

Now the hard part – deciding how I want to stack them! Oh, wait there is no stress about that, since I can move them around as I play with my crafting items until I’m happy! LOVE IT!!!

Trimmer Blades – limited supply available to order

Need Blades for your retired Stampin’ Trimmer?

There will be a limited supply available to order in my Online store on Thursday, June 27th at Noon (ET).  

Here are some details:   SU does anticipate blades to sell out quickly, but hope more customers will be able to order with the smaller limit.  

You will only be allow to order 3 sets of the blades, not the previous option of 6.  

On the day of the launch, if you try to order the Stampin’ Trimmer Cutting Blades before they are available, you will see this error message: “You may not order 1 of item 126995 because of promotion restrictions.”  

When the blades have sold out, the message will return to the current message until the next supplies arrives: “This item has been discontinued and cannot be added to your order (126995).” 

But no worries, I’ll let you know when the next shipment arrives.   Please contact me if you have any questions – and thanks for your patience.

It’s back in stock!

All the Storage pieces are now in stock and available to order  

Please note: Stampin’ Up! is  watching inventory closely and will reorder accordingly, but it is possible these items will run out of stock again and return to Not Orderable status for a time.

Storage by Stampin’ Up! Q&A

  • Will old design Stampin’ Pads fit in the Ink Pad & Marker Storage Tray?

No. The Ink Pad & Marker Storage Trays are designed to fit our new-design Stampin’ Pads only.

  • How high can I stack storage trays?

We stacked up to 50 storage trays without any issues, BUT we would not recommend stacking that high. While our Storage by Stampin’ Up! products are sturdy, the higher you stack them, the less stable they’ll become. Use your discretion when stacking.

  • Can I mount my Storage by Stampin’ Up! products on the wall?

No. Our modular storage products are designed to sit on a table (or similar flat surface).

  • How should I use the Open Storage Cube?

The Open Storage Cube can be used to hold any miscellaneous items like ribbon, embellishments, and small punches. For more inspiration on ways to use items from our Storage by Stampin’ Up! product line, check out the configuration chart we created.

  • Can I mix and match Storage by Stampin’ Up! products?

Yes! Our Storage by Stampin’ Up! products are modular and designed with customization in mind. Take a look at the flyer for more information on the size and dimensions of each item in our new modular storage product line.

  • Do I need a Storage Lid for each 5-tray stack?

No. The Storage Lid covers the top of Ink Pad & Marker Storage Trays, Stampin’ Blends Storage Trays, and Open Storage Cubes, so you need only one per storage configuration.

  • How many Stampin’ Ink Refills can I store in the Storage Topper?

You can store up to 20 Stampin’ Ink Refills (or other small items) in the Storage Topper.

  • Are ink pads difficult to remove from Ink Pad & Marker Storage Trays?

No. When you insert an ink pad into a storage tray, a small portion of the ink pad will stick out. We designed it this way, so your ink pads will be both secure and easy to access.

  • Can I buy individual Ink Pad & Marker Storage Trays and/or Stampin’ Blends Storage Trays?

No. Both of these items include a set of five white plastic trays. Please use the configuration chart to determine how many storage units you need.

  • What material do you use to make Storage by Stampin’ Up! products?

Our modular storage products are made with white, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) plastic, which is a lightweight and durable material.

  • How do the silicone feet work?

To protect your surface and prevent slipping, we’ve included peel-and-stick silicone feet with the Ink Pad & Marker Storage Trays, Stampin’ Blends Storage Trays, and Open Storage Cube.


How do I know what pieces I need?

And how about a printable PDF work sheet that will help you determine what you need to hold your supplies? And configuration ideas.
