Default papertrey ink stamp storage

Merry Christmas everyone !!

I just got my first 2 Papertrey acrylic stamp sets. Where are you guys putting the labels? On the outside of the front and back of the CD case? Are you storing them in a different way? If you stick the labels on the outside, then when you stick the stamps on the inside they are of course backwards, I guess that doesn't matter, but wondering how everyone else does theirs.

I put my labels on the outside of the cd case - I think if you put the stamps in on the inside, they match up to the images outside.

Hope you enjoy playing with your new stamps! I find reach for them quite often.

When you stick the labels on the outside, the stamps line up the right way on the inside. I do find some are cramped inside, though. I have quite a few sets, so I use a CD holder to store them.

You're gonna love PTI...great quality and design!

OMG, I'm so stupid. I couldn't figure out why they were backwards when I stuck the labels on the INSIDE of the CD cases. Some of them, like for Guide Lines, it doesn't matter, but the ones with words really got me confused.

Will the edges of the labels get crinkly with use, if you stick them to the outside of the CD cases?

I got my sets all put away in the CD cases. The only thing I don't like is that when you close the box, the acrylics get stuck together. So, luckily I saved the sheets they came on and just used those on both sides so I can at least open the case! LOL. Then, I couldn't tell what the images were, so I cut out a piece of CS to sandwich in the center and now I can easily see what's inside.

I am a die-hard SU stamp fan ... but now I have a list of 5 other papertrey ink sets I want !! Does the madness ever end?? ROFL
