I have shown several cards using the new Framelit Dies. There is the Heart Collection and the Labels Collection (both on page 6 of the Mini Occasions). They come in a folder as shown on the left.
Although this storage works fine, I wanted a way to see the different sizes better, so I am going to show you an alternative storage that I find works quite well.
I took an empty clear stamp storage case. You can purchase extra empty cases. They come in a pack of 4 for $5.95 (page 205 of the Idea Book and Catalog). I cut a piece of Designer Series Paper 7" x 10 5/8" and slipped it on the outside (there is a opening at the top that makes this easy). You can see the pictures below.
I took a piece of our magnet sheets (pack of three 6 x 13" sheets for $9.95 on page 216). These sheets have one adhesive side. I cut a sheet 4 7/8" x 6" and put the adhesive side down on the inside right side of the case. I cut a piece of Designer Series Paper and put it on top of the magnet sheet to make it look pretty. I put it on with SNAIL adhesive.
The inside stores my framelits on top of the magnet sheet. They stay in place best if you keep the cut side up.
The left size has the sizes of each framelit, so I know what size paper I need when cutting them.
Here are the sizes from largest down.
1 - 5 1/2 x 4 5/8"
2- 4 x 4 3/4"
3 - 4 x 3 1/2"
4 - 3 1/4 x 2 3/4"
5 - 2 5/8 x 2 1/4"
6 - 2 x 1 5/8"
These are the sizes of the images when cut (which is the inside edge).
I find this works great. I can see the sizes and I also know that I have all of them in their case (unlike the heart framelit dies, which I found one on my floor this morning!)
I cut a large label with the framelits and used it on the front cover of my storage case.
