I finally downloaded the pictures of what 70 stamp sets looked like before organization and after. I took all of my new Stampin' Up sets and mounted them with either EZ mount thin or regular EZ mount. 3 notebooks later they take up a whole lot less room! Also I prefer the acrylic blocks for accuracy. They are organized by the current catalog and page. I take the sheet that came with the set and use a repositionable adhesive to attach it to the opposite page (just a sheet of printer paper) for identification and marking what page they are on. Sets with tiny stamps I have used a large Ziplock with 3 holes punched and then I slide the storage cling sheet into the Ziplock, then if any tiny stamps feel like falling out they are cantained in the Ziplock bag. You can click on the picture to get a larger view if you need a better visual.
To answer a few peoples questions: YES! This does take a while to do! Be patient. I would say about 2 - 5 min longer per set. You have to cut out first then lay on EZ Thin. Or even remove the whole cushion it came on (carefully!!) and then use EZ Mount regular. I love my SU stamps their rubber is superb BUT I do not love wood mounts for the amount of room they take up. I have been stamping for about 20 years...does that give you an idea of how many stamps I own.....I also own a significant amount of Judith & Heather stamps too and that is alot of wood.!!
Please E-mail me and I will guide you to a good deal on EZ Mount thin and thick HotPaws@aol.com
