Spring Organizing

'Tis the season to clean and organize, as I was tired of looking at my out-of-date file folder (which didn't hold 12x12 papers) and my messy packs of cardstock...

Luckily, I came across the 12x12 Reflections File Mate that I purchased from Creative Memories a while back.  This find sparked my motivation to organize my papers, as it is so much prettier than my old and boring black one!

Once I sorted through all my papers and sorted/discarded my scraps, I pulled out the P-touch labeling machine.  This is definitely a required tool when you're on an organizing mission.

I like to organize my papers by colors, so I began typing labels for "reds," "oranges," "yellows," and so forth.  I decided to forgo the white tabs that you insert into the file tab and just place the P-touch label on top.  So simple!  I felt so much better once all my cardstock packs and loose papers had a home. It was definitely a successful night of organizing.
