I have a cheerful card that I made using the Artiste cartridge and the June stamp of the month. For that little bit extra I used one of my Anna Griffin cuttlebug folders. Lately, I have really been using my cuttlebug a lot. I need to come up with better storage for my folders. What I currently have is not working for me anymore. Anyone have any good ideas?

! love this cheerful card! Your colors are always so well matched. Thank you for all the great ideas. BethAnn M.
So pretty, love the colours!
Very pretty colors and I like the embossing. I store my embossing folders in a plastic shoebox without the lid.
Love the card and the colors are awesome. The embossing really adds a new dimension, and I like the idea of two different embossing. Melanie, you really rock!

Love your project and love the colors. They really make the card pop.
I use something similar to Shirley (aka Okieladybug's) folder idea. I took 4x6 tabbed dividers for a file box, embossed them with the folder, wrote the name on the divider and on the folder with permanent pen, and slide the folder behind the tab in a 4x6 file box. This works great for the A2 folders, but leaves the 5x7 ones without a home. I'm hoping to see a good idea here from someone else today for them.
Bee-utiful floral card in a fav color of mine, blue.

Love your card and love your color chose also!

I have a 5 x 9 notebook with plastic pockets (got them at Staples). My cuttlebug folders slide right down in the pockets. I have dividers in the notebook with the name of the folder on them. Works great until I got some 12 inch folders : ) I would also think that a box that holds greeting cards would work for the cuttlebug folders. Hope that helps. Love the card
Melanie love your card. I use the CTMH large organizer. It holds a ton.
Love the card, and I too, am stumped by the 5x7 folders. I use the blue Cuttlebug organizing folders for now, I have two of them
Love your pretty card. TFS.

What a pretty card! I love the tone on tone stamping!
I've really enjoyed using the tone on tone effect. Your card is wonderful and springy!
Such a pretty card! I love the embossed background. I think I "need" a few of the folders you've used lately! My embossing folder storage is pretty simple; I keep them in a large rectangular basket and use the packaging insert cards as dividers. It makes them easily accessible so I'm more likely to use them.
I love your card. You come with great ideas. Makes me want to dig into my scrapbook paper and see it I have anything close to your colors.
I really like the embossing
This is just stunning! I really like how the stamps add so much to the Cricut cuts and I did get my new pink Cricut this week (THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!) so now I can get creating again!!
The stamp and die cut combo really adds depth ond wow!
Your card is so pretty. I've been on an embossing kick since I got my Anna Griffin Cuttlebug & folders. I was using a notebook (I think from ProvoCraft) with plastic pockets. But when I got my AG folders I needed more room. I found a card organizer box that I got from Hallmark years ago. It had dividers for each month. I turned them around and labeled them with the name of the folder. Hope that helps!

Cute :-) Now that I have the flower stamp set, I will have to copy this card ;-)
I love the card and the embossing folder. Beautiful!
I use a cute basket that matches my room. I made folders on my Gypsy (similar to okie. I emboss the front of the paper folder and write the name on the tab. I can quickly look through without having to pull my folders out since it is embossed on the front. and it looks cute on my shelf!
What colorful paper. Love the card.
Thanks for a chance to win.

Lovely card, so bright and cheerful.

Love the card!
I purchased a notebook by Darice especially for storing A2 folders. I have each folder named and numbered and each pocket named and numbered so if one
is empty I know which one it is. Nothing figured out for the borders and larger folders.
So stunning! I LOVE the design, the colors and the beautiful flowers!

Wow what a pretty card - love the dimension and the flowers!
I store my folders in a padded 6 or 8 pack pop insulated carrier. It has a zippered top. It will hold the 4 x6 or 5 x 7. It carries well by its handle to go to crops. And to use it, just unzip and you are ready to go. Hope that helps.
Lothringen from MI
Such bright beautiful colors!! And the embossing behind it is so pretty!
I love your work! Not much more I can say...
Wow I am in awwww of this card. Now I am sorry that I did not sign up as a consultant. I would have been an owner if this stamp set. LOL. Maybe next time there is a special I will act fast. Thanks for sharing.
