DSP Stash Buster #2
What do you do with your retired stacks of Designer Series Paper (DSP)?
I am constantly stashing away piles of retired DSP. As a demonstrator, I have always tended to purchase extra for club projects or demonstration purposes but I can't demonstrate it once it retires.
I have been trying to better organize my craft room and not only do I have piles of DSP but I have boxes of cards that have been created as samples. I decided to organize them as well and jazz up their storage a bit. I used the heavy chipboard or cardboard that comes with our DSP as dividers and attached what I thought would be appropriate pieces of DSP to the front along with a label I created on my computer to identify each subject. Finally, when something comes up and I don't have time to make a card, I can reach for the appropriate box. I don't know why I didn't do this sooner!!
Last year I decided I needed to find other ways to use up that stash. I always use file folders to keep my business and personal life organized so instead of purchasing those fancy designer folders that cost a fortune, I covered my plain old manilla file folders with DSP. You can check out that post HERE.
Another easy way to use up DSP is to line your envelopes. You can peal apart any envelope and make a template for it. Stampin' Up! used to sell a die that coordinated with their envelopes. You can even cover the outer flap of the envelope. Just make sure you secure it well for mailing so an edge doesn't get caught in a postal sorting machine.
I still have lots of DSP to use up so I'll be looking for more ideas.
