Lavinia Stamps BY REQUEST...HOW DO YOU STORE YOURS 🤔

[@flipmcintyre]

I don’t have room for bins in my craft room/guest room…I have a Lavinia binder and I’m thinking I can do this, punch holes in it and put in my binder because those inserts get expensive! :)

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

That sounds perfect x

[@terriconrad4612]

Excellent project! I did understand when you told me about it but I love watching it in process! The “visual” in me. Such a great idea and I know we all appreciate you taking the time to show us your process! Love it YC! 🥰🇺🇸🌴

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Awww bless ya....after sending you pics I got asked again and I just thought this would be easier xxxx 😘

[@annaedwards7315]

Thank you Heidi. I’ve been wanting to tidy up my Lavinia stamps. This way, it’ll match the rest of my stamps. Don’t know why I didn’t think of this 🙈%. I love your videos 😊

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Yh it matches mine now which is so much neater x

[@margaretbarke2299]

Very useful video. Thanks Heidi x

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

You’re welcome 😊

[@57bev]

Thanks Heidi! That was very informative. Great to know about the cheaper version of the replacement labels. I have the same labeller and they’re so expensive to buy. ❤

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Yh they are super expensive and I use a lot so this was perfect and ya can't tell the difference x

[@kathybalch]

Great tips, Heidi! You could try using a corner of your score board to match up your cheap card stock with your laminated paper . I have to do everything like that because I have a crooked eye LOL 😵‍💫 I have to go make mine now. Thank you so much for the tutorial!

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Any time love x

[@dawnmason2378]

Brilliant idea, love things neat & tidy. Thanks for sharing 😊

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Yh me too x

[@truuskruidhof]

Great idea to store the stamps. Mine are just in the bag where you buy them,but it is not a great way for storage. Have to buy a laminator first.... Thank you Heidi! 🌹

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Laminaters are so cheap...ya don't need a fancy one. The pouches ya can pick up in lots of places cheap as well x

[@truuskruidhof]

@@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter don't know if these stores are in the UK,but I saw one in the Action shop very cheap and they sell also the pouches so will go the shop this week.

[@midgepope8335]

Great idea thank you for sharing

You are so welcome! Xxx

[@amymanley7862]

Thank you Heidi, thank you a hundred thousand times! This is something I've been struggling with for years! It is brilliant and so very helpful. I would never have thought of it. Bless you, bless you! I'm so excited to have a convenient and usable system to store AND use my stamps! You are my hero right now💜💜💜

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Wow....that's a right comment. I don't know what to say.....thank you so much x

[@caszscountrycrafts3258]

I’ve been using those plastic storage bags for years for my dies. I put my dies in an envelope and put the envelope into a storage pockets you’re idea is wonderful as it’s storage & a cheaper way of storing them on the laminated sheets, I’d bought the acertate to stick my stamps on but I find it has very sharp edges once cut your idea of sticking them onto laminated copy paper is a much more practical way of storing them & cheaper. My Lavinia cellophane bags are just starting to tear at times and I was trying to work out how to store them. So thank you for showing me how you do yours and I’ll definitely be doing mine the same way as you do. Much easier to watch you do it & explain as you go as well, I laminate my bookmarks I make so understand what & why you were doing everything that way. You’ve solved my stamp storage problem though Heidi I’m so grateful for your tutorial on this & showing us all. Thank you for such a perfect tutorial and explanation of how you made the pocket and how you store and name your stamps in the storage pocket. I also stamp the image on the back of my copy paper so I know the size of the images once stamped as it helps with designing my cards. Have a wonderful week see you in the Lavinia group & thank you again for your educational tutorial. Enjoyed it immensely and understood your explanations. I’ll be busy tomorrow now wonderful tutorial thank you.😊 Carey ❤

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

What a lovely lovely comment. Am so glad it has helped you. Are you not in our Facebook group heidi-the Yorkshire crafter? If not come along and join in x

[@joycephillips3843]

​@@heidi-theyorkshirecrafterMorning Heidi, couldn't sleep so watched your video,one more time, so I understood the (System). Waiting for my Label Machine to arrive, then I will be ready to go. Thank you so much for explaining it all so well. Will be every busy for a few days. FANTASTIC TUTORIAL. xxx

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

@@joycephillips3843 you will appreciate it when it's done ...it took me a few months to swap mine over...but I just did a bit each day x

[@CharlotteMerl]

Thank you Heidi. I am new to crafting and was scratching my head over the best way to store my stamps. This is genius! ❤

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

You are very welcome love. Welcome to the very addictive crafting world x

[@allisathompson]

Thanks for sharing! I'm always looking for better ways to organize my items. Quick Tip: When laminating multiple sheets in one laminating pouch, use a glue stick to secure the sheets. The glue will melt and disappear once it's heated.

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Great tip thanks x

[@janbuckley1]

This is a brilliant way of storing and cataloging your stamps. Great video tutorial Heidi, thank you so much ☺️ 🩷

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Thanks love x

[@LindaBanks-m5j]

I do that now after listening to you talk about it before. I do a variation as I put mine into ring binders. Great idea.

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Thank you x

[@serenarcher]

Thank you heidi, this is just what I was Looking for. I think it is a great system. Have a great evening 🙏🙏🤗😊

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Glad it was helpful! Xxx

[@serenarcher]

@@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter I have just looked at the labeller and pockets. I need these in my life 🤭🤭 take care 🙏🙏😊

[@nedanashu5025]

That’s the way I store my Lavina stamps as well, great minds think alike

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Yes x

[@99zanne]

I laminate my DP like that (back to back and cut open) to cover notebooks that are going to get a LOT of wear - that going my purse or my bag - or other 3D items I make. It makes them so much more durable.TFS.

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

It's can be used for so much can't it x

[@flipmcintyre]

Heidi, I was wondering if you wouldn’t mind talking about the new Lavinia stamps that you yourself are ordering. I placed my pre-order and found myself thinking I wonder what Heidi is getting! lol I think it would be fun to hear your thoughts on the stamps/products and maybe some early ideas on how you will use them.

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

I have absolutely no idea what I am gunna do yet. I always do a video of the new release so as soon as I get it....so I will let ya know what o think when I have it in my hand x

[@lindajones7815]

Thank you so much Heidi. That s quite a job, but so much better for and using.

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

It's perfect for me to find what I need very easily x

[@sharonh.5586]

Hi Heidi! I have a similar system! But I like your idea of putting the stamps on a laminated sheet instead of the sheet they come on. I also get similar envelopes from Amazon. And no-name label tape. I have a "brother" brand labeler and the brand name label tapes are an absolutely ridiculous price!!!

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

We gotta shop about havnt we. There isn't anything wrong with buying cheaper if they work x

[@mellyj3874]

Great idea and Tips Heidi...thank you for sharing 😊

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Anytime luv x

[@suzanneO6924]

Great information! Thanks so much for sharing your process.

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Your very welcome x

[@kerriegood1046]

Really appreciate the super informative video. I am new to Lavinia, but love it and now that I have found you, so much more inspired. I think may need to go with great system for my Lavinia stamps. Hope your order came.

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Yes it did eventually but then I wasn't in the mood to craft so will be tomorrow now x

[@gilliansprott5487]

I wish I had seen this earlier. I sat for 3 days putting all my Lavinia stamps into a folder, stuck to sheets. Then realised I couldn't see the image 🤔. I have lots of other stamps so I will arrange them like you have. Did you say you did the same with dies ?💟

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Yes all my stamps and dies are set up like this . If I have a set that has bothe stamps and dies I put stamps in front and dies in back x

[@fionascott4887]

That's such a great way to do it Heidi

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Thanks love x

[@zeephillips4763]

Thank you for sharing, I love how you do this storing made easy ❤ can’t wait to do exactly the same ❤

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Your very welcome love x

[@julieannen4662]

Thank you Heidi! Do you glue the stamped image before you stick them on the cardstock? I like to use mine on my cards to see how my stamps will look before I stamp on it.thank you :)

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

I fix mine down so they can't be moved . Just don't stick yours down if you need to use them. I never use mine over my work so it's easy for me to stick em down xxx

[@deborahtovey7918]

I’m watching you on the “big” screen (my t=). I had no idea I could do this. Am very excited to find out how to do this!! Xx

[@deborahtovey7918]

My TV, I meant to say.

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Hahaha I can't imagine me on a big TV 🤣

[@deborahtovey7918]

@@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter Hahahahaha, you’re fine hon. At least you don’t have massive man hands like me! LOL.

[@deborahtovey7918]

By the way, how do you get the stamped image on the plastic? Is it just acetate? It’s just some looked unused.

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

@deborahtovey7918 it's the acetate that comes with ya stamp image already on. Some I cut down and some I don't bother x

[@michelledobbie2793]

Tfs Heidi this is a great idea ❤xxx

[@sharonbloor6554]

Please can you tell me what you stamped on ? And what ink to use please. Love watching your videos. I'm from Buxton, but now live in Australia. Look forward to your reply. Lynne

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

I havnt stamped on anything. What you see is the acetate. Xxx

[@sharonbloor6554]

Sorry, but did you stamp each stamp on the acetate and cut around then attach it ? Thanks Lynne 😂

[@saratalbot62]

Can you tell me where you bought the 5x7" folders from please. I would love to store my stamps like this.

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

I bought mine from amazon .....they come in 3 sizes....you want size LARGE . They are avert elle storage pouches x

[@pmacorky]

Thank you so much. I had them in a folder and it was running out of room. Do you attach the picture of the stamp to the shiny side too?

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

No ...the pic goes on the front so you know what's in the back x

[@pmacorky]

@@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter isn’t there two pieces of laminated paper and card in each envelope. One with stamps and one for picture?

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

@pmacorky no plain card in front with picture and laminated one in back with stamps. You could put both pieces laminated if you want but that's more expensive x

[@elizabethjohnson3123]

How do you make your labels? I’m in the process of organising my stamps & I have little plastic sleeves

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

I use the demo letra tag machine x

[@elizabethjohnson3123]

Oh right, thank you 😊

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Thanks so much love x

[@kittykat1234k]

I'm sorry I'm so confused on how you make a pocket for storing stamps. I watched a couple of times and I'm confused lol So when you laminate with the paper inside does it seal the whole paper that's inside? I just don't understand how you make pockets. I'm sorry it's just me I guess.

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

I buy the pockets already made. When I laminate the 2 pieces of paper together and then cut round the edges only 1 side ends up being laminated and that is what the stamps go on x

[@kittykat1234k]

Thank you Heidi. No wonder I was confused lol

[@vickyesme]

This is genius. How typical that I lent my laminator and never had it back.

[@heidi-theyorkshirecrafter]

Well that's annoying....luckily they are cheap to buy x
