Paper Pumpkin Storage and MORE!!

Sorry I missed a day of blogging, but lots going on this time of year for me.  How did I do it the past 2 years with the Royals?  I'm sure I had a few melt downs!!

Anyway I think I have mentioned the Demo Only Facebook group and all the great ideas.  We cannot share directly from the page, but you want to visit this ladies Face Book page  if you are a Paper Pumpkin subscriber or want a GREAT storage solution for small stamp sets and accessories.  WHY did I not think of this?  Pampered Stamper  https://www.facebook.com/ThePamperedStamper

Here is my version and really when you do the math for a $16 or $21 dollar investment you can store at least a years worth of Paper Pumpkin stamps all in one tidy album.  Here are some pictures I took.  I think the key is to MAKE the kit!!!  Have those cards ready to go and just store the stamps, leftover bits and pieces.  Love the idea to turn the box inside out and give as a box full of cards or any gift that will fit.  So unstack those boxes, Christmas is coming.......give gifts, give cards!!!  Give a Box of cards to a Local Nursing Home for residents to use.  Take one to Church to send to sick members.  Spread the Love, Share your JOY!!!

 Here is the instruction sheet for the October 2016 kit.  I put an ink mark on the paper to match the Holes of the Binder and punched with my Hole punch.  This way you always have the instructions with the leftovers and can identify the stamps.

 And then I placed the stamps and leftovers in the pockets of the 6X8 project life pages.  12 pages for $6 in different pocket formations. 

 Here is a smaller pocket page, which is perfect for the smaller stamp sets and great for left overs.  If the backing on the stamps is too big, trim it down with your snips.

 Here is another small set with lots of embellishments.  I punched a hole in the Banner baggie and added to the ring binder.

 And below is a Pocket page......2 for $5.  These can hold several ready made cards or anything else you want to store with your Paper Pumpkin stamps.

 Here is a shot of the album from the top.  3 months in so far and plenty of room for 9 more!!  The Instruction sheets provide your labeling!!  And since this is a ring binder you can easily move things around and change the order at any time!!

 A great way to be able to search and USE these stamp sets, rather than search thru a stack of Red Boxes!!  And if you do not have Paper Pumpkin, I bet you have oodles of those small stamp sets in baskets, bags, drawers, etc.  Get them organized so you know what you have.  This is a SOLUTION!!

And I added the sticker to the front of my album with Tombow multi.  I could decoupage it and stamp on it.  These albums are quite versatile for only $10.  And include a spot on the spine for the year or a Label. 
And your ink spots can be stored together ready to use, rather than hunt for them.  Paper Pumpkin is a great way to collect ink colors!!  You can slip them in a pocket, but I prefer to keep all my ink spots together on top of my color caddy.  Or they also fit in a Wide Stamp case  127551 $7.00 for 4 cases
