My PTI stamp index

I print the web images off the PTI website for each stamp set I own, then print them 2 to a page - 8 1/2 x 11 landscape. Then I cut the paper in half, punch holes to fit my little binder, and file them alphabetically. It's a great resource to just sit and look through. I've often found myself picking a stamp set out of it that I haven't used in a while and pulling it out of my storage box to make a card with. For me, if I can't "see" it, I forget I have it. So this is a good reminder. I make the image as big as I can for the half page, so the sentiments are easy to see. I can flip through this little book and find sentiments, images I'm specifically looking for instead of having to pull out each cd case and look through it. Here's a picture of the little binder.

  1. Susan, I absolutely love this idea and hope you don't mind if I give it a try myself. I totally agree with you, out of sight out of mind. I think this would get me to use more of my aresenal if I could just flip through a book like yours. What a wonderful idea. Thanks!
