Greetings my stamping friends. I have been trying to get my crafting space more organized (I still am surrounded by boxes from my move of nearly a year ago) and it is a very slow process. I found that I was several catalog cycles behind on removing retired products from my shelves and matching up dies to stamp sets has made me realize I need a new system.
How do you keep your craft supplies organized? I have come to the conclusion that keeping the dies rubber banded to the coordinating stamp set is going to be the best option for me going forward and will deal with those rare occasions when the stamp set carries forward to the next catalog but the dies do not, or vice versa, when they arise.
If you follow me on my Facebook business page, I have pinned a post to the top where I have listed some of my most recently retired products (stamp sets and those that also include a coordinating die or punch set) which are available for purchase. Be sure to check them out in case I have something that you missed out on during its offer period. I will continue to add more items as I get more organized!
I am going to share with you today two cards from the Connect & Create team swap which use the Love & Happiness bundle from the January to June 2022 Catalog (see. page 11).
This particular bundle has what is referred to as a “hybrid embossing folder” which means that a die (heart shaped) fits inside the folder and cuts at the same time you are embossing. Jan made her card a window card, while I popped up an embossed heart cut out in another material on dimensionals. So many variations with this option!
Here are the thumbnails for the bundle as well as the products separately. Just keep in mind you save 10% when you purchase these items as a bundle. I also included the embellishments used just in case you needed those as well (you can never have too many embellishments!):

If you have any questions regarding the dimensions of these projects or how to use the hybrid embossing folder, do not hesitate to ask me.
