Great App for Organizing Your Dies, Stamps, Stencils and Craft Supplies

 If you're a cardmaker or papercrafter, chances are you have lots of dies, stamps, stencils, embossing folders and many other fun crafty supplies. I have been looking for a way to organize all of my collections, so I can utilize more of my tools in an efficient way. In the process of researching, I discovered a great app that is designed for organizing "collections". It is very easy to set up and use and even allows for syncing between all of your devices. You can also add "friends" if you have team members that need to access supplies too. You can find it in the Google Play Store here...

The app is called My Collections by Altova.

I set mine up by collections of dies, stamps, stencils, embossing folders, and Betterpress/Hot Foil Plates.
I have storage boxes for each of these items. I assigned numbers to each package and then entered that number into the My Collections app. If you have a lot of items, I won't lie, it does take some time to organize and enter. But the payoff is SO worth it when you are done. Now I am able to browse through my items on the app and then easily find the item I'm looking to use by going directly to the item in my storage boxes.

If you've been struggling with how to organize your papercrafting / die cutting tools, I highly encourage you to check it out! I couldn't be more thrilled with how much it has met my needs to get better organized and save time.

Birthday Card - Mixed Media for Craft Roulette Cardmaking Challenge #234

Craft Roulette Card Making Challenge - Episode #234 Parameters   Project - 6 x 6 card Colors - Rainbow (any or all) Element - Single Flower Random - Cloth I love mixed media, so I really enjoyed putting this card together. I used torn Toile tissue paper (you can find it HERE in my Etsy Shop ) to partially cover the background. The dress is die cut from patterned scrapbook paper, pulling in colors of red, green and yellow from the rainbow. I used Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Vintage Photo to vintage up the edges of the dress. The background of the card is subtly stamped with Speckled Egg using a chicken wire stamp. The sentiments are stamped as well using Black Soot Distress Ink.
