Embossing Folder Organization

This is a huge task that has been on my mind to do for months...

Purging and Organizing my Embossing Folders




My sorting process:
  • Get the embossing folders in one place (Luckily, I have kept them in 2 fridge bins)
  • Choose your categories - Get rid of, Keep, Long Term Storage, To think about, etc....
  • Go through your folders and add them to each pile depending on your feelings.
  • Then go through the "To Think About" pile.
  • Then go through the "Keep" pile one more time to make sure you have the ones you will use. (This depends on what you use them for)
  • Then if you have more in the "To Think About" pile, go back through that pile until all of the folders are sorted.

The Organizing part:
Part 1:
  • If you want to add titles to the folders - Places to help if they are older folders - eBay, Etsy, Google search (add the brand for easier searches)
  • Use a label maker for titles and brand if desire on the folder.

Part 2:
Normal size folders: 
  • Use the file below to create folders to hold your embossing folders.
  • Take a 4 X 5 Piece of cardstock and emboss with the folder.
  • Cut in half if you want an example of both sides.
  • Use tear tape and wet glue to attach to the front of the folder.
  • Add another label to the folder (if desire)

Part 3:
Larger folders (Same as above and the file will come soon...)



Part 4:
And the last part is to Create a folder in OneNote or Evernote and using the titles of the folders create a page for each and add a picture from online or your camera.
