I purchased some C-line Service had bags. It’s big enough to hold more than a package of card stock. I put my scrap pieces in the bag. Helps keep me organized. These are the things used when you get your car serviced. They put your work order and keys in it. These work great for my cardstock organization. They are clear, so you can see the card stock. I purchased on Amazon and got 25 in the box. I think it was $20 or under. Like your layout, too. Thanks.

BRILLIANT!!! I always thought I was on top of scraps because I always immediately cut them into 5 1/4 x 4" mat sizes. But you have taken it waaaaay further. This is totally amazing and I'll definitely be doing it in the future. thanks for sharing!

I came across your video on KZbin, again. 2nd time seeing your system. Loved it the 1st time, just more prevalent now. I'm actually working/playing with cards. Finding out, how it's not as easy to make for myself, what I was given by demos at a make/take class. Thanks much for your hard work. Even in a quiet motel rm, I would have gone crazy to even try to complete your wonderful system. Very valuable, one sheet wonder layout. Especially w/5 sizes that can all fit together. WOW. I'm still changing a corner of my family rm, from stacked mess of hoarding/boxes/etc. Into a craft corner. I can't stand not making cards while I organize. So I try to make one, on a lap/tv-tray, & get stuck w/sizes & layouts tripping me up. This will help me immensely. Now I will break, cut up different colors of CS. Then next break, I'll have the cut mats & actually create a card. This means more than I will ever be able to express in words. God Bless You 💗👍😊🌈 My email has changed. Please reply to jokitty123@Comcast.net

When I have a stack of small scraps in plain white or light colors, I stamp out a bunch of Happy Birthdays, etc, and punch them out and put them in a baggie... sometimes I punch out a larger dark label shape to be used behind those. works great and easy to use for a quick card, since I don't stamp a greeting on the cards I stock, until I need them.

You made this video 4 yrs ago. I have a file folder for each color. In each folder I have a sheet protector with scraps for that color. I check the sheet protector first before cutting into a new sheet of cardstock in case I have a scrap that will work. You might try that for the scraps you created BEFORE this template. I am curious what storage/organizing system is working for your template pieces now that you have been using it for a while.
