Hey there I just wanted to show what I have used for storing my 4x8 QK/LS dies. I purchased a couple rectangle boxes and expanding plastic photo files and they fit perfectly!! I am sorry for the size of the photo I am still working on this up-loading business. Cindy

Cindy, that looks like a terrific solution-very easy to find what you need and you are right, they do fit very well in those pockets! Thanks for showing!!

I LOVE IT!!! I have mine in the All-in-one binder, but I have cut my fingers getting them in and out. Your system will be much easier to work with and they are labeled so I will know when one is MIA!!! Thank you for the suggestion! (and I think your picture is just fine! )

One more thing... Can you tell me more specifics about your expanding file? Where did you find yours? I actually had a similar expanding file and was sooooo surprised they fit so nicely! It looks like yours also has a spot in front for CDs??? That would be perfect size for Chicken Noodle or the new Scrapy Crafts Fonts! This storage system will be so easy and much lighter to take to crops! I looove finding new ways to store my dies! Thanks again! ;D

The front little pockets are only the size of business cards.
I got everything at Hobby Lobby (on sale of course). The files are in the scrapbook storage section. The boxes are in the basket section.
I like this file folder more than others I have seen because the bottom of it stretches out with the rest of it (does that make sense). Most of the file folders I have seen have a closed bottom and only the top expands. When opened it sits by itself and I can dig through to see everything.

Great storage idea Cindy. Thanks for sharing it with us.
I have picked up a CD case that has 2 CD slots per page. I store my 4 x 8's in the botton slot. And of course the CD cases are perfect to store Scrapy Crafts Die-Versions 4x4 fonts

this is PERFECT for 4x8 dies. oh my gosh, just wonderful. LOVE that the bottom expands as well as the top - GREAT IDEA - thanks so much for adding a picture and telling us where you got your supplies!!! I think Scrapy Land Divas are going to be the most organized scrappers heading into fall 2011! WOOT WOOT!

Cindy, what a great idea! Unfortunately, no Hobby Lobby's in my neck of the woods. Think I'll check around to see if I can find something similar in one of the office stores.. Doesn't it feel good to be organized??? Gail
