Brilliant!!!!! Seems every company around here advertises with "refrigerator magnets"- aka: Universal Annoyances. Tossing them into my "hardware drawer" annoyed me even more as things became "magnetted" together! But watching this video, it occurred to me that their persistent "stick-to-it-tiveness" could prove useful rather than annoying. They are stronger than magnetic tape.... and not that much thicker. So.... I applied double-sided tape to the advertising side of the magnets & - with the magnetic side facing up - stuck them onto my cling stamp pages to hold the matching dies. From Universal Annoyance to useful craft organizing aid! Love-love-love your videos & look forward to each & every one!
what a great idea! thanks a lot ! I just looked for an idea of storage for my stamp collection, and this is the solution ! Especially as I wanted to group my stamps by theme and not keep them in the original sheet. So now I can put for example all birds together, or all words, or all flowers and so on. It is so annoying to look for a "Happy Birthday" and having to go through the whole collection to find perhaps 3 different stamps on three different sheet. Now I put all "Happy Birthday" on 1 sheet ! The other advantage of this method is, that all sheet have the same size ! I also will follow your idea to store the original sheets as overall catalog, and I certainly will add copies of my wood stamps on matching paper to complete this catalog. Only thing I will change : I think it is better to slide the photopaper pages into clear sheet protectors, so the stamps cannot cling together..and will not get lost if falling down.
Thank you so much the photo sheets are perfect. I have so many from my previous printer. I added photo sleeves that are divided in sections and the photo sheets work perfect for the small stamps. 🙏Amazing idea.
I didn’t read through all the other comments, but I have an additional idea that fits with this. It’s for all those stamps with a wooden block base. If we stamp them onto a sheet and keep all of those that fit within one shoebox on a sheet we could label the box and that page so we could find ‘the stamp we know we have but don’t want to hunt for’…. Lol
Thank you so much. You are amazing. I have photo paper and dvd cases i lined them with photo paper and it works perfectly. All stacked up. Thank you once again. Regards Gloria. England. X
It's a great way of storing cling and acrylic stamps. I did mine like this a couple of months ago and I now use my stamps a lot more as the binders are on my desk where I make my videos. Definitely worth doing 😊💕
I've seen cling stamps merge together when there isn't plastic between them. Like the idea of the binder and that you suggested to put stamps arranged on your sheets inside a plastic sleeve.🙂
Hi Victoria. I found magnetic vent covers amazing. And cheeper then other types of Magnetic sheets for cutting dies. Three come in a pack. Home depo, Amazon, Walmart.
I LOVE this idea. I bought a pack of the "wrong" type of photo paper and it's been sitting in a drawer for yeeeeeeeears. Now you have saved me twice over: perfect stamp storage and I use up my stash of photo paper!
First of all, you have my stamps, embossing folders and dies!! Did you rob me? Great minds do think alike. I love all of these ideas. I had purchased Stamper's Best folders for the rubber and stored my clear stamps on sheets in clear envelopes and in Scrapbook's boxes, LOL
Hey Miss Tinne.... Loved seeing your creative & ingenise idea 💡.... I'm sure 📌 gonna get me one (have an old & unused photo album.... Ready for this project) made up for all my Kling Stamps... I like them for their smaller space saving use.... Also, enjoyed your contagious enthusiasm while making it come together... Thx 🙏 for sharing with us... Even if it's been done before... Not to worry... Keepin it real & ready to go is so important for all us Creative Geniuses 📌 💝👑🤙🌹🎶💃👀💡... Sincerely sincere... Miss Judith 🌹 🎶
I had good luck using some laminated panels too. But the Photo Paper really works better for holding them. THE KEY is GLOSSY. finishes. You want the super glossy finish no matte or satin or frosted if it's lamination material. The photo paper trumps my lamination material though all I made are still in use. I slip these inside large clear envelopes with velcro tab closures. These are similar to the paper sleeves only bigger and will accept bulk nicely. But they are a full 8.5x11 inch envelope that have an outside multiple holed strip to connect with the binder rings like yours does. I'm glad I ran across your video again today. I watched it before maybe about a year ago. Anyway I was just fussing in my mind how to handle my BD gift to myself in Feb 78 individual stamps. These are multi sized from quarter page or 3x3 inches to many 4x4 size all the way up to half a page almost. I've divided the bulk of them into 10 sets that tell a story using your imagination. They do not have printed cling sheets only clear on both sides so I already was setting up to print each out. I never separated the preprinted cling sheets like you have and so will be using your idea to make a separate look and see and identify sheet like this. I'm going to scan my prints into my computer too. I'm leaning toward needing to reduce some of the larger size prints so I can fit into a card all the same page size. Originally i was going to use a huge heart steel rule die for pages but most of these stamps when they arrived are TOO BIG for the heart. I can scan them and reduce them and print them by laser to laminate/foil or just inkjet print and then die cut the pages around the reduced stamp. I'll have to use a template for the page size I will go with to insure they fit before printing out and cutting. Some of these ink style drawings are of animals, zebras, even a camel, bears, cute squirrel and birds. Also butterflies all would make good practice trial runs to work it all out. I knew I was ordering 78 dies I just had no idea how daunting this would be once they arrived. Don't want to put it off though. Thanks for your sharing this very well done video. So helpful. (PS if you have a lot of stamps people be prepared to go through a ton of double sided tape. I went through 5 huge Scotch super rolls of 1/4 inch wide tape. I was shocked now much I used to glue my laminated boards to chipboard and saved heavy duty card stock. I went through my entire supply. I also used half inch three ring soft sided binders. I recommend 1" because though it's nice to have multiple binders with insert cover sleeves so you can ID what's in each they fill up fast. Too fast. If you use similar with magnet sheets and metal dies be prepared for the note books getting very heavy. I was shocked how heavy they are. (I use large clear envelopes with velcro tabs that fit a full 8.5x11 inch page into them and like the paper sleeves shown here to hold the design prints these envelopes also have a prepunched hole strip to fit various ring binders. I make magnetic dies and also slip in four of my 7x5 inch magnetic envelopes that hold dies too into the same sheets. I love my dies and stamps stored in three ring binders. But turns out I've got more than I ever thought. So that's another thinking outside the box challenge to figure out. I encourage anyone who has trouble finding the die or stamp they are looking for to try these methods Vectoria shares here. I'm glad I ran across this again sort of a refresher just when I need it.
A brilliant save hack for sure!!. Im so happy to see your excitement at your find. this to was encouraging to see. If I may share, I have purchased flat magnets that seem a bit stronger than the tape. you may have to glue them to the paper, but may be a bit stronger to hold the dies.
A suggestion is to use a few 2-3? neodymium magnets, they are very strong and can be found in multiple sizes and thicknesses. You can try securing them to the page w your favorite: double stick tape! 😋. PS I LOVE the idea of using photo of paper!
Thanks a bunch for this idea. My stamp binder only came with 5 pages when I bought it. I've been using two photo albums and leaving the stamps in their packages so they don't slip out. I had tons of photo paper and magnetic tape, so I'm about to use your method. ;-)
OMG! I'm so sad. I have more photo paper than I care to admit, however, I've already made a large investment in stamp & die binders BUT if I should need more storage space, I'm going to use your very smart hack. I use magnetic furnace vent sheets to store my dies in those binders (cut to the size I need) and you can glue/tape them onto cardstock or whatever you like which I do for my heavier dies.
I agree absolutely brilliant… I have been using the same system for years which has worked pretty well but this will be even better… I’m headed into surgery put me off my feet for six weeks so it will be an ideal project :-) and I just came across 500 sheets photo copier paper along to my dad super high-quality I am so excited thank you!
Did you also try sheets of thick acetate ie 2-3 mm? Also what about the laminating pocket stuff that comes also in A4? Someone did it with some sheets of plastic also 2mm. Photo paper is expensive no?
Well, I haven't tried. And the reason for me was that I have tons of (cheap) photo paper that I don't use. And I only have a few acetate sheets that I want to use sparingly 😂. Also, acetate sheets are see-through so you would look upon the bare chipboard (of course, you can add scrapbook paper on top first). Great idea!
I was using business card pockets but they kept falling out. I love this and will be changing all the little stamps and dies safely. Thank you so much! Bless you.
Wow had no idea that photo paper could be used like this, lolol for the magnetic tape, you can also use magnetic vent covers. I know here in the states, you can purchase from Home Depot or hopefully amazon, since it's world wide. It works great and just glue down or double sided tape to the photo paper. thanks Tinne for the idea, love it💜
Vectoria, I’m pretty sure our “household” grade magnetic tapes, as well as the “Vent Covers” sold in hardware and big box lumber stores, are “sticky” in direct proportion to the THICKNESS of the product. Seems the stuff has to be thicker to be more effective.
What type of photo paper do you use? I am trying to make storage for my red rubber wood block stamps that I have converted into cling back stamps. However, I tried getting one of these foam back rubber stamps to stick to the photo paperI had and it would not stick. Have you had any luck with this method with the old stamps that have been removed rom wood blocks and had foam cling backing stuck to them?
FYI: I’ve tried this technique and found that, over time, my clear stamps leave a “grease spot” on the photo paper. I’ve not yet tried stamping with those stamps I found to have done so. But, admittedly, these are/were the cheat “chinese knock offs”, I’m sure.
@@vectoriadesigns Matters not to me, either. I was just wondering if - over time - the practice would make the stamp brittle. 🤔. Since most of us don’t use a stamp more than a half dozen times during the time we own it, I suppose it’s a mute point. Be well. 😉👍

Oh djeez, that sounds serious. I'm going to add some sleeves in between now.

Love this idea, I was just thinking about b8ngers but wasnt sure what they would stick too.
Wow! This is a great idea! I think Vellum in between would keep the stamps from sticking to each other as well!
Great idea!
What a fantastic idea Tinne

Indeed, if magnetic sheets won't work I'll use my strong magnets ^^
Many craft shops have magnetic sheets with adhesive backs. Our hobby lobby in US does
A suggestion is to use a few 2-3? neodymium magnets, they are very strong and can be found in multiple sizes and thicknesses. You can try securing them to the page w your favorite: double stick tape! 😋. PS I LOVE the idea of using photo of paper!
Indeed, neodymium magnets are the last resort ^^
Great idea Tinne 😍
I have folders like you too Tinne but not as well Organised lol xx
This is brilliant!!! I have a bunch of photo paper that I don’t use for anything. I’m definitely going to do this. Thanks for sharing, Tinne!!

I thought about doing this with page protectors as well.

I presume this only works with cling stamps.
How long do they last? I tried one sheet and a blue film appeared on the back of the stamp.
I think it very much depends on the quality of the photo paper.
Stamp on the photo of the stamp also,that way you can see where it goes.
Great tip!
Very nice idea Tinne. =^^=

I think I already see those spots, but honestly, I don't care. That's personal of course.
