Organizational {Friday}

Well, with my new sketch site Triple the Sketch starting up, I thought it would only be appropriate to talk about how I organize sketches from magazines, etc. For the sketches I draw myself, I have a notebook that I use; however, for sketches from other places I use my Quickutz 2x2 storage sleeves. I don't store my Quickutz in them anymore, and I hated to see them go to waste so this was the perfect solution. Here is what a page looks like:
This works perfectly for me. I print them or cut them out of magazines, write the designers name and magazine name on the back so I can give them credit, and put them in the Quickutz page holder. I do have divider tabs in my binder so the sketches are sorted as follows:

Tab 1: 1-2 photos
Tab 2: 3-4 photos
Tab 3: 5 or more photos
Tab 4: Cards

I thought the 2x2 size would be too small but they have been perfect. You could even use the slide page protectors and keep them in a regular 3-ring binder instead. I hope this helps some of you organize those sketches. And be sure to use our new sketches from Triple the Sketch once they begin posting on April 4th. Have a wonderful day!
