Yesterday I was trying to explain how I stored my UM SU! stamps, of course a picture is a much better explanation.
I used clear envelopes I bought from clearevelopes.com. I had them left over from previous years of participating in craft shows. I cut card stock down to fit inside the envie, took the clear image off the wood block of the stamp and put it on the cardstock and just slipped it inside. I then folded down the sticky flap in half, kinda creating a tab like on a file folder, there I put the stamp set label. I took the stamps off of the blocks and stuck them to the outside of the envie on the back and filed them alphabetically in a quad drawer I bought from Michael's.

Your system is awesome!!!! Do you have any cross reference by image? I forget the titles sometimes, and will be looking for a certain sentiment or image. I just have to paw through every thing I own. One day maybe i will be able to have something as great as this. TFS

I have a 3 ring binder I use. I put a photocopy of the card with the name of the set, the number of stamps and what catalog I bought it from. To be completely honest that is a slow process. I should have been doing that from the get-go but 5 years ago I wouldn't have thought I'd have 200+ sets to unmount. :-)
