A Quick Tip: Ink Pad Labels!

Howdy folks! I am as the stamping convention currently but before I left I wrote this post so I hope you enjoy it!

First off, here are some tags, nothing but ink and cardstock. I like to send a tag/bookmark inside a card with my note written on it so the card can be reused by the recipient!

As I was making the tags I realized I was spending too much time trying to identify what the colors of some of my ink pads were so I used return address labels (they are smaller than regular address labels, you get 60 on a 8.5″x11″ sheet) and smeared them with ink and stuck them on the edge of the pad so I could see the colors when they were all neatly stacked or in my fancy repurposed cassette holder-turned ink pad holder:

You may notice the new Distress inkpads I have, they were on sale for $2.25 this week and so I grabbed a few, no worries, it came out of my stamp show budget…I’m very happy with them I have to say!

 You could easily write the ink color on the labels too but I don’t care what the name is, I just waht the right color! 🙂

Now I will use the colors sitting on the shelf because I can see at a glance what they are! Thanks for stopping by and till next time (when I share the fun I had at the stamp show!) Happy crafting!
