a little organization

After finally creating a layout the other day, I was putting away all of my supplies when I decided I would do something I've been meaning to do for awhile now: Label my Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pads... what fun!

To start, I dug out all of my distress ink pads and some return address labels:




For each ink pad, I used two labels and stuck them down onto my non-stick craft mat.




I started inking away...




(I made sure to place the labels far enough apart on the mat so the different colors wouldn't bleed onto the other ink pads.)




Dry with a heat gun...




Peel and stick...



All done!




Instead of storing these in a container in my craft closet with my other inks, I decided to leave them out on my craft table in my antique soda crate...



Ahhh... that's better. Now I can see them all and know just by a quick glance what color I need to reach for.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I'll see you next time! ::wave::
