Here are my NEW Stampin’ Up! Packaging Ideas. I think I have found what will work best to make the New Stamp and Die Packaging work for me. Let me know what you like or don’t like about my ideas.
This Video is 10 minutes long.
STAMP TIPS:
~I cut my thick printer paper at 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″. You can use any paper you want and cut it to the size that best fits your Stamp set.
~Use the plastic sheets that come with your Stamps if at all possible to save money and effort.
~If your Stamps come on larger plastic sheets, you can attach the thin sheet with Tear & Tape over your stamped images. Arrange your Stamps on the Thick Sheet where you want them. Ink them up while still on the plastic sheet. Place your Stamps on your paper/cardstock and rub the plastic sheet with a stamp block to get a good image. Use Tear & Tape to attach the thin plastic sheet over your stamped images.
Clean your stamps, then place them over the stamped images.
For Stamps You Want to Spread Out like I did on the Video:
~Cut your Thick printer paper or cardstock to the size you want. The largest size can be up to 5-1/4″ wide x 8-1/2″ tall.
~Decide if you want your stamps on top of the stamped images or next to them (below or beside the stamped image).
~Stamp where you want your stamps. Feel free to use any pretty ink colors you want!
~Cut a piece of Glad Press’ n Seal a little larger than your paper.
~Lay your Press’ n Seal over your paper with the sticky side down.
~Smooth on with your Bone Folder.
~Cut off or wrap the excess to the back. Smooth with your Bone Folder.
~Lay your Stamps where you planned.
~Cover with one or both of the plastic sheets your Stamps came on.
~Slide the Stampin’ Up! paper with the pictures on one side and your Stamps showing on the other side. This way, you can see what is in the case, no matter which way it is facing.

~Use the plastic sheets that come with your Stamps if at all possible to save money and effort.
~If your Stamps come on larger plastic sheets, you can attach the thin sheet with Tear & Tape over your stamped images instead of using Press’ n Seal.

DIE TIPS:
~Draw around each die on the cardboard it comes on with a pen so you can see if any are missing.
~Write the name of the Die Set and the number of dies on the cardboard with your pen.
~Slide the Stampin’ Up! paper with the pictures on one side and your Dies showing on the other side. This way, you can see what is in the case, no matter which way it is facing.
