The best part of my new system is when I pulled out the Halloween drawer, I found all this stuff I forgot I had! So I made a card, of course.
The skeleton tag is a two-layer laser-cut freebie I received at a crop. I added some ghostly bats and glowing orange eyes (which do not photograph well).
It's fun and inspirational to discover your lost stash...can't wait to dig further down into that drawer!

Just love your card. He's a cute skelli. Great idea for storing items by season or Holiday. I have my designed papers stored as such but, had not thought of storing other items this way. I may have to try it. Thanks for sharing. Always looking for a better way to organize. Maybe one day I'll find that perfect system and won't change it up every 4 to 5 months....LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteHave an awesome Fall and hope your Holidays are full of creativity and fun.
