As a paper crafter, I have a lot of paper.
99% of it is from Close to My Heart. Close to my Heart has 40 core colors of cardstock & ink. Plus all their B&T (background & texture--or printed paper) co-ordinates. This does make my life a little bit easier, knowing that I can find that perfect color, but it can still be a bit overwhelming. Especially since I like to have some of each color on hand.
My solution, and this week's tip.
Rolling files....
I have 3, one for plain cardstock, one for current paper packs, and one for retired papers.
I use legal sized file folders. This leaves the top inch or so of paper is visible, hence easy to find. And the ones I found had a couple of drawers on the bottom. Which I usually just store extra stuff in. But when I go to a retreat. I take half my paper out (file folder & all), lay them gently in a box. Then I fill those drawers with stamps, and adhesive and embellishments, and then I put the whole rolling thing in the back of my SUV.
And when I get to the retreat, I have everything at my finger tips.
I hope you are enjoying these weekly tips, till next week.
