Simply Crafty SVGs - More Organization

Hello, my friends!

Welcome to a new project share for Simply Crafty SVGs!

This month I'm sharing another fun organization project!

I've used:

Small Ink Pad Holder File 

but I've used it as the optional drawer.

My original intent was to create the 
Small Ink Pad Holder.
However, when I got to this point in the project,
I realized that I really needed to leave this as a drawer.

Isn't that great?

I've used papers that coordinate with my previous project HERE.

I intend to make several more of these drawers,

and stack them up on top of each other.

What will I use them for?

Well...they are perfect for all the digital printouts that I have.

I can print out all I need for a project, 

and put them in a drawer until I need them.

Also, once I'm finished one of my digital projects, 

I often have numerous leftover bits and pieces.

I can put them all together in a drawer, and label it.  

 

This is the view from the back...

...and the other side.

It's about an inch tall, so it will hold lots of goodies.

Then when I saw this photo I thought of another fun use for this box.

It would be a wonderful presentation box for a mini album.

It could just fit right into the drawer and be slipped closed.

I think I'll have to give that a shot!

To turn this drawer into the Small Ink Pad Holder,

it's just a matter of making one more cut paper with a grid,

and inserting it into the drawer.

Part 1 HERE,
 Part 2 HERE,

Today I am sharing my final post for this series. 
I have finally run out of card holders...for now!
So for my final set, I've created a holiday themed set.

Part 6 Files:

Card:  Swing Card Set 1

Holder:  Greeting Card Organizer

We'll start with the card.
The Swing Card Set 1 comes with 3 different Swing Card designs.
They are A2 size when folded.
They're all a lot of fun!

I did some fun stamping on the center panel...

...that worked well with the decorative papers.

The back side has room to write a message, 

and to sign. 

Now we'll move on to the box.

It measures 7 1/4" wide x 5 1/4" tall x 2 1/2" deep.

It comes with a removable lid.

It has an optional label to add to the front.

I chose to include it, and added some fun stamping.

The cut file also includes file cards that fit perfectly into the box.

A perfect organizational aid for a card organization box!

Finally, here's a photo of the Card and Card Box together!

Other Materials Used:

Papers: Recollections - Cardstock, My Mind's Eye - Wonderful Winter;

Ink: Stampin' Up - Real Red, Old Olive, Distress Ink - Walnut Stain;

Stamps: Simon Says Stamp - Sending Happy Thoughts, Snow Much Thanks.

Isn't that a lovely way to store cards,

or a beautiful way to gift a set of cards?

Simply Crafty SVGs - Part 5 of Card and Card Holder Series

Today I am sharing a gorgeous sunflower card,
and a lovely coordinating card box, with a curved front.

Part 5 Files:

Card: Sunflower Cards

Holder: Curvy Stationary Organizer

We'll start with the card:

You may have noticed that I'm rather partial to sunflowers! ;o)
This is a really lovely cut, and so fun to put together!
The file comes with two card options.
I created the round one that measures 5".
The other option is a 5" x 7" rectangle version with a rounded top. 
Each option includes various layers. 
Here's my card:

The card base is the blue cardstock - it has a lovely scallop.

The next layer is a lovely scallop with little circles out of each scallop.

It would make a lovely doily, and could be used many ways.

Then there are two layers of the sunflower petals,

and three layers of the center.

To finish off my card, I puddled Glossy Accents in the center layer, 

and filled it with little brown micro-beads!

I really like the texture that it added!

* * * * *

Now we move on to the card box:

This is the Curvy Stationary Organizer.

It's another box that would be perfect to store cards and envelopes.

You can see that it's a good size,

as this card is 5" and is tucked in the front.

There's lots of room to add so much more!

I think it would be great for storing project life, or traveler's notebook goodies too.

I love to keep things organized! ;o)

Here are the Card and Organizer together:

Other Materials Used:

Papers: Recollections - Cardstock,

DCWV - Citrus Stack;

Ink: Distress Ink - Walnut Stain;

Glossy Accents;

Micro Beads.

I'll be back next month to share my 6th and final Part in this Series! :o)

Around the World Card-Making Day with JOY CLAIR - My Space Challenge

Happy Hello, to all friends and visitors!

Welcome to the MY SPACE CHALLENGE of
Joy Clair's
Around the World Card-Making Day!

* * * * *
This will be a little bit of a re-post for some of you.
For many of you it will be brand new! 
I am in the process of purging and clearing my space,
so it was not possible to take updated photos. 
These are from the last space hop I did. 
The basics are all still the same.
My goal is to clear out what I'm no longer using,
make room for new things I want to focus on,
and have everything organized and pretty! :o)

* * * * *

I am blessed to have a bright room that measures 13' X 16'.

It's been my craft room for 18 years and has seen a lot of changes;

both in crafts and in set-up.

I really can't share the whole room in the condition it's in but I'll share some parts.

My husband is very talented, and builds me anything I want. 

He actually came up for the plan for these shelves.

The end unit is my die-cutting station. 

My Big Shot goes on top, and my dies are all close-by.

I always work standing up. 

I colour sitting down...but otherwise I'm always standing.

This is where I work.

I had my husband build a raised area for me, so I don't get a back ache.

I also work on a glass surface. 

It's just my favorite surface to work on for many reasons.

Everything I need is close at hand, either on top or under the work surface.

If I turn around from my work surface, this is what you see.

My trimmer, score board, another glass surface, and lots more, is all easily accessible.
The unit under it is from an old Eaton's Department Store.
The drawers are huge and very strong. 
You'd be shocked at how much they hold!
That's why I didn't share any photos of them open! lol

This is one of my favorite organizational spots.

It's in the black filing cabinet right under my work surface. 

The first two drawers are shallow and hold inks and other mediums.

This bottom drawer holds all my 8 1/2" X 11" cardstock. 

It's all sorted by colour, then in front of each colour is a file folder to hold the scraps in those colours. 

When I need a smaller piece I search through the scrap folder first.

 Here's a peek at one of my pegboards. 

This is my favorite ribbon organization! 

Do you know what these trays are?

They're chick feeders from a local hardware store.

Yes, actual chick feeders and they hold ribbon spools perfectly!

I love this system, and since this photo was taken I have added more!

There you have a look at where I work.
If you're interested in seeing more, it will have to wait until my room is finished! :o)

Today I am sharing two Fall themed cards,
and a card box cut out of Fall themed papers.

Part 4 Files:

Cards: Fall Pumpkin Gatefold Card (free)

Pumpkin Double Fold Card

Holder: Folding Greeting Card Holder

We'll start with the cards:

This is the Fall Pumpkin Gatefold Card, which is a free file in the shop!
The file actually comes with another panel that has leaves cut out of it. 
I opted to leave that panel off, in order to show you another option. 
Also, this file can then be used to create cards for many other occasions!
Here it is closed with a ribbon tie:

Here it is open, with an insert panel for stamping and writing a sentiment:

Now for the second card.

This is the Pumpkin Double Fold Card, closed with a belly band:

Here it is open.
I added a ribbon bow to the belly band.
The file comes with a label that you can add to the belly band.
There is also an optional pumpkin to add to the base,
if you cut it out of dark cardstock.

Here's the view of it open, from the front:

* * * * *

Now we move on to the card box:

This is the Folding Greeting Card Holder.

This is a really great card holder!

It will hold lots of cards and envelopes,

and can be made in any theme or color of paper.

The file includes a cardstock band that wraps around the box.

I opted to adhere a ribbon to the back, for a tie closure.

Here's the back:

Here's the inside.

The pockets are so nice and big!

Here's the back all opened up:

Here's a look at the card holder with the two cards in the pockets.

The cards and envelopes are A2 size,

so you can see how this holder would hold much bigger cards too.

Other Materials Used:

Papers: Recollections - Cardstock,

MAMBI - Harvest Specialty Pad;

Ink: Distress Ink - Walnut Stain;

Martha Stewart - Orange, Red;

Stamp: The Project Bin - Autumn's Calling;

Bling: Crafts - Rhinestones;

Ribbons: Offray.
