I totally love my Stampin Blends (alcohol markers) but I needed a way to store them, that would be easy for me to grab them when I am in the middle of a project. So I went on Amazon and found these trays that hold my Stampin Blends great. Of course Stampinup has some also, that are very nice as well, but a little more expensive, which some day I may invest in them. I needed something inexpensive for now. They sell for about $22. Obviously I need more but haven't bought more yet. I also used my label maker and labeled them, which makes it more helpful when I need a specific color for a project.

For my most used embossing powders, I store them in shallow plastic containers. It makes it so much easier to use, store, and less cleanup. I simply open the lid and dip my inked image in the container. Love how easy it is to use this way.
Todays card is a fall Pumpkin card, using Gathered Together stamp set. Its a pretty simple card, embossed a piece of card stock to accent behind the pumpkins. As for the front I just stamped the images, and colored the Pumpkins with Stampin Blends, and on a scrap of cardstock I stamped colored and fussy cut the pumpkin out and used a Stampin' Dimensional to pop it up.

Tip Tuesday
I've seen many ways to store punches, and I have found storing them in my Ikea cart works great for me.
It stays right beside my desk, all I have to do is roll out the cart next to me and grab what ever I need.
The cart is inexpensive and a great accessory to you craft you, they sell for about $30 dollars US.
