Default organizing cards

I find that I want to keep one card for every card I want to remember. Do you do this? If so, how do you organize them?

take a picture, it lasts alot longer! I have an album on shutterfly. When people ask to see my creations, I just send that. Good luck. I know they are hard to give up, but you give them to people who appreciate them as much as you.

I photocopy mine in colour at 50%, cut them out, paste them on plain paper, and put them in a binder. I can fit 6 cards on the photocopy machine at a time. I can put 6-8 of these copies on one sheet of paper. I organize them by occasion or theme (ex: flowers, masculine, baby, etc...) This is a great ways to do it (for me) because I can just flip through my binder to find what I want.

I print out thumbnails and put them in a small journal with the list of supplies and any unusual measurements...

I second keeping track of unusual measurements! I photograph them instead of keeping that many cards!

Blessings.

I admit I do both. I have pictures of them on my computer PLUS I generally make two at a time so I can keep one for reference. Sometimes you need a card in a hurry, too, so it is nice to have a stash. Of course, since I stamp frequently with no objective in mind, I do have quite a stash! For those, I have them in a box with recipe card - like dividers that say birthday, thanks, note cards, Christmas, Halloween, Easter, sympathy, etc.

Pictures, for me. Each year I create a folder and dump all the previous year's cards into it. Doesn't make it so easy when I am looking for a particular card, but makes for more manageable slideshows when I want inspiration.
