Happy WOYWW everyone.
It's my fave time of the week where I get to join Julia at her blog Stamping Ground and hang out with my desk buddies and see what they have been up to!
My desk today has a story. This is the photo I took on Sunday morning. I never leave my desk like this anymore, because it is in my bedroom and it's not fair on Hubby to look at a hot mess. So imagine my surprise when I went off to my desk on Sunday AM and was greeted by this mess. I don't remember leaving it like this..LOL..late night Furcrafters perhaps?
Last weekend, I finally solved a problem that has been bothering me.
Like most people I use clear pockets and fridgebinz to store my stamps -

But I have a few stamp sets that are taller than my pockets...man has this been annoying me!
So I spent Saturday morning looking for a solution...I came across this - genius idea..
You cut up the cover sheet and then collage onto the paper insert you use and then laminate it. I didn't use my Zyron to laminate the sheets (as per the link), I used my laminator, meaning I could do x2 stamp sets at once. I did 10 in total.
Here is the result -
I forgot to take a photo of the before, but I did keep the paper sleeve that the stamp set was on. See how much taller than my clear pocket it is!
I am super pleased, it works really well, means everything is neat and tidy and my inner OCD friend can go to sleep for awhile.
Here is a little card for you WOYWWers -

I like how you transfered your stamps all into one. I agree with you all the different heights shapes and sizes can drive a Crafter crazy
