52 Tags Week # 17 Challenge:

For Week #17, Create a tag with a HOUSE image... ANY kind of house: beehive, dog house, tree house, gnome house, fish house, King & Queen house, beach house.... any type of house! 
Then on the back of your tag write out the number of times you've moved in your life.

I chose a castle to represent my home, because my home is my castle.

 I have moved 5 times in my lifetime.

We do plan on moving at least two more

times, once being in the next 5 years and  the second time being after my husband retires. The plan is someplace that is warm year round and by an ocean.

Welcome to Tip Time Tuesday!

Welcome to Tip Time Tuesday at the Creative Cutter Room!

This is my first time sharing a tip for "Tip Time Tuesday" so

 for today's tip, I wanted to show you how I store my scraps!

Start with your pile of used papers

Sort papers in color families

Put into plastic envelopes, I used 12 x 12 you can also get 8.5 x 11 size or you an use large ziploc bags.

I had some that are colored, so I put that color paper in it. For the rest I used clear which is great to see the color through it.

I put my designer paper in a separate envelope.

Then I just grab the color that I need.

I store them on the shelf with the rest of my papers for easy access.

Thanks so much for stopping by the Creative Cutter Room!

I hope this will help you with storing your scraps!
