Store those stamps in style... and a chance to win some blog candy!

With June's issue of SheetLoad of Cards being dedicated to using those $ stamps we all had to have, we thought a great blog candy to offer up would be storage for that stash!


This month, Mandy from Secret Scrapper, has been kind enough to offer SheetLoad readers a chance to win one of her Stamp Holder Albums!


These albums come ready-to-alter and includes 10 sheet protector pages with pockets that will perfectly fit those Studio G clear stamp sets, as well as other unmounted stamps you may have.


Here is an example of a stamp holder album that was altered by Jen R, one of our SheetLoad artists:

- Browse through the Secret Scrapper online store.
- Come back to the SheetLoad blog and leave a comment on this post that includes:
* Your favorite Secret Scrapper product
* Any $ stamp storage ideas you currently use
* Your First Name, Last initial and email address*



Deadline:
Post must be made by midnight CST on Friday, June 27th.


A winner be selected using random.org and will be announced by the 1st of July.


The fine print:
If your comment is linked to a blog with contact information, you do not need to leave your email address in the comment.

Hmmm, a favorite? I love SEI albums and might say that or the little star album but I think the think I would be most likely to buy is the thing you are giving away, the $1 stamp holder album. Right now I punch a hole in mine and hang them from my pegboard in my craftroom. I am Amy E and my email is linked with my blog info!

Cat said...

i've not seen this store yet... love the albums, but i really need an ATC storage book. the one on secretstamper is so cute too! I'm Cat L. and my blog has my contact info. thx for the chance to win!

Jenn said...

Love the monthly kits - very reasonably priced, so I can have more kits and more variety! For my $1 stamps, I either put them into CD cases with the rest of my stamps, or if I haven't used them yet, they go on one of those binder rings. Thanks! Jenn R (Comment will link you to my blog where you can contact me direct)

I love anything sei but if I had this little album Imight actually use my dollar stamps.

Embley Veronica said...

Ooh, not easy to pick a favorite--the blue april kit is gorgeous, then there's the October card kit that I totally love (cool designs!). I love hearts, too, so the January kit is also pretty great. I've got ATC's everywhere, so that's tempting.

But...the thing that I totally fell for was the Gerbil album because I run a rodent rescue (www.raleighrodentrescue.org). :) I don't have any gerbils of my own at the moment, though, so may I suggest adding a "rats" album and "chinchilla" album? :) I *need* those! I'm so excited to see rodents represented! Let me know when you open again! I know a lot of guinea pig and gerbil folk who will be getting albums for the holidays this year! :)

I have never seen this place before. But i love ATC holder album and the stamp storage album. I loved those 2. I use a CD album to hold my spellbinders and all my dies like that in there as it is easier to keep track of them plus i can also put a magnet with the ones that has more than 1 this way it keeps them all together. I get the magnet register covers as i can cut them to any size I want.

I really like the stamp storage album. Right now I just store them in a box and have to look through them everytime I want to use one.
I've thought about buying an album for clear stamps, but haven't done it yet. Maybe I'll win the blog candy and won't have to :).
Visit my blog at http://alisonstamps4fun.blogspot.com/ I don't keep it as current as I should, but I plan to someday--procrastination is a terrible thing!
Good luck to all,

I like the 6 x 6 scalloped album. Right now I am storing my stamps in something similar, but not as cute. I am using baseball card holders in a plain ole binder. I would love to have an alterable one.

Diane said...

I love the G Studio storage album!
I was looking for something like it this week,I'm so glad I heard about this. Mine are just anywhere and everywhere right now,I need some kind of organization and this will be perfect!

Jill said...

What a great storage album for those $1 stamps! I agreewith one of the other comments that the monthly kits are lovely and very nicely priced. I really need that storage album for my growing collection of Studio Gs! I currently store them in a lunchbox tin (they I have yet to decorate) and I keep them on their little card and file them behind index cards that sort them by theme (birthday, girly, christmas, etc.). The lunch tins are large enough to hold two rows of stamps but I am full. Thanks for the blog candy opportunity and the look at a great store.

Love the ATC album, and the letters album..I could go on ...My stamps are in a 4 drawer cube, kept in series of $ stamps...email linked via blogger...Thanks love the stamp album....

Martha said...

WOW, I love that stamp holder album. it's too cute and so perfect for those stamps.

right now, my studio G stamps are in a Maya Road coffee break tin. That's the best I could come up with at the time. I divided the tin in half, so I can stack the stamps in it. Just takes a bit to find the one I want.

I have the Stamp Album on my wish list. I would love to win one, my next favorite is the albums that are scalloped the 8 X 8 size.

I think the monthly kits are super cute! The April one is my fave. I use shoe boxes for my stamp storage. I have big feet, so the boxes are always big (size 11 works great) Then I just write on the outside of them, what types of stamps are in there.

Oh my! Those Secret Stamper products are so yummy, and practical, too! I think my favourite product would have to be the ATC album! I have been looking for something exactly like that! Currently, I have a $ store 3-ring binder that I altered, and filled to the brim with ATC's! I need a new one! ;) My blog has an email link to contact me: http://kimmerbe.wordpress.com

WOW! What a great store! I love the monogramed albums! Too cute!

Anonymous said...

Oops...misread the instructions :P I store my $ stamps in a binder with photo sleeves - doesn't work so well, because the stamps fall out of the slots because they're too big. I have been trying nout DVD cases - they work much better for most stamps! http://kimmerbe.wordpress.com

My favorite products is the 6 X 6 scalloped album. Right now I store my $1 stamps in plastic baseball card organizers in a 3 ring binder. Marla H. (mghowell8@msn.com)

My favorite product was their monthly kits. Don't care which one. LOL Most of my stamps are from StampIn Up which come in a nice case. Using that idea I took a gallon bag and a piece of foam board that is sized to to the bad. I coordinated all my loose woodblock stamps into groups and then placed those groups in the gallon bag. The foam board keeps the bag from collapsing and I've labeled the top of the bag so that I can just flip through the tops and pick out the category I'm looking for. I keep them all in metal decorative storage bins.

Janet said...

I just browsed her site and have to say that I still like the stamp storage album best, but the monogram frames come in second. I NEED this stamp storage album. I am such a sucker for the dollar stamps. I have so many that they are overwhelming my clear stamp storage drawer in my filing cabinet. This is a great product. Right now I have a bunch of storage systems going on in my stamp room. I have 3 large office type wide 5 drawer filing cabinets. I bought stacking stamp storage trays for my wood mounted stamps. I also use office stacking trays, too. For my unmounteds I use binders with storage pages from Sunday International. I also have TONS of CD cases full of stamps. I like those except they are not big enough for larger stamp sets. I use cheap storage bins to hold all my clear sets. I am in the process of trying to organize them all now and I am about to pull all my hair out. UGH!

The ATC book is kewl. The albums are really nice. I would love the stamp holder - I store mine in cd cases and in some little boxes.

I like the stamp storage album. We all need more storage for our toys!! Right now I have a plastic storage box that I keep all my clear stamps in, but they are about to outgrow it!!

Purple Princess said...

Very nice stuff in that store. I love the Wall Flower Hanging! I also love the Stamp holder album.

My current storage for the Studio G stamps is using a three ring binder with the pages being baseball card holders. There are nine pockets per page and the stamps fit perfectly. I saw the idea somewhere online.

My favorite idea/product would have to be the stamp holder binder/album! I love collecting various acrylic stamp sets and I only have a flimsy handmade binder to protect them. Winning your stamp holder album would be so awesome! I've bookmarked SheetLoad of Cards to check out daily.
Thanks for the random giveaway!!

THANK YOU!!!!!!! I so love all of the specialty items. As soon as I get some extra money, I want to get a Frame album and a Kindergarten album. They are so cute!!!!!!!

OMG! First of all I really need the $ Stamp Album as mine are all in their little packages in a drawer so I don't actually use them or use them much. But, I also would love and will have to get three of your travel albums. I need the Cruise, Explore Europe and Travel the World albums.

Right now I am slowly putting my stamps in jewell cd cases. What isn't in a case is still in it's package in a drawer.

I went to Secret Scrapper and my absolute favorite thing was the ATC album. As I just joined a newly formed ATC group, this would be a great item to share at our next meeting.

I store my $ stamps in their original packaging but clip the package to the top tier of my Clip-It-Up.

Oh my, I forgot to put my name and contact info in my last comment, so will repost it now.

I loved the ATC album at Secret Scrapper. I am new to making ATC's and this would be perfect storage, and I can decorate it!!

I love the stamp storage album. Right now, my stamps are all stored in an acrylic snap close case. It works ok, but I find that its not very handy. I also have a lot of acrylic stamps and have them kind of all over the place, so I really need to get a proper storage item for them. I'm Lynn M. and my contact info is linked to my blog.

Wow! What a great idea--the stamp albums. Funny that I should come across this today. Just last night I wsa reorganizing my stamps after a frenzied week of WSW!!! All week I kept flipping through my $ stamps and knew I needed some system. Soo, I have this long plastic basket, about 3" wide and 12"long. I sorted my stamps by theme, then placed labelled dividers between each theme. Still not ideal..the album would be perfect!

My TWO favorite items are the stamp and the ATC albums. I just made my first set of ATCS and was wondering how to store them. Thanks for the cahcne to win one of my favs! KimR karennie at yahoo.com (hope that is okay for spelling it out!!!!)

I like the stamp holders the best. I currently hang mine from my home-made clip it all, but it's starting to take up too much room. My favorite storage tool is baskets that I get from garage sales. I love primitive stuff and love the look the baskets give to my scrapbook room.

To be honest I like the stamp holder too, but I also think the scalloped albums are cool. Right now all my wooden $1 (or $1.50 for me LOL) aree in a basket in my drawer, not the best storage but it works. I took all my Studio G style stamps on put them in clear CD cases, works REALLY well.
