I adore the Queen & Co. foundation dies. I use them regularly for all of my card-making. They make it so easy because the dies work so well with each other. The options are endless.

WHY ORGANIZE QUEEN & C0. FOUNDATION DIES?

If you love the foundation dies as much as I do then you know there are a LOT of dies. I believe they have around 27 sets now and are regularly adding to the collection.

I like to keep each die with its correct set. This is helpful because I use their card sketch layouts and it makes it easy to find the correct dies.

I currently have almost every set of foundation dies. Last year I knew I needed to get them organized so I could use them more effectively.

HOW TO ORGANIZE QUEEN & CO FOUNDATION DIES

Getting the dies out of the plastic package is a pain to me. I wanted a way to access them that didn’t include the plastic package.

I had so much success organizing my Mosaic Moments dies that I knew the same method would work for the foundation dies.

Anna Griffin sells the strongest magnetic sheets I have ever used. They are AMAZING. I can’t say enough good things about these sheets. The dies are on the sheet and stay on the sheet.

I bought some Anna Griffin Die Binders (which are lovely, with beautiful floral patterns) and extra magnetic sheets.

Each sheet is labeled with the set number using my label maker. The sheets are kept in the Anna Griffin hard plastic inserts.

I keep only my foundation dies in the binders, and they are labeled as Queen & Co Dies. Some sets have enough dies that not every die is lying completely flat. I am fine with that. Most sets fit these sheets perfectly.

If you are a true fan of Mosaic Moments, you will accumulate a lot of dies over the years. I am kind of OCD about keeping my dies organized so I can find what I am looking for.

WHAT TO CONSIDER WHEN ORGANIZING DIES

Everyone organizes their craft supplies in their own way. I will show you how I do it, but please realize that this method may not work best for you.

Some of the things that were important to me when coming up with an organization method were:

• Portable: I wanted the dies to be portable because I take them with me to crops outside of my home.
• Secure: I don’t like the dies moving around. I want them to be secure. This preference made my other methods fail.
• Ability to Grow: I am honest with myself and I know I will be buying more dies as they release new dies. My method to organize Mosaic Moments dies needed to be something I could add more dies to easily.

You will need to think about what is important to you when it comes to storing dies.

HOW TO ORGANIZE MOSAIC MOMENTS DIES

I love to save money. Getting a deal is a fun high for me. Unfortunately, I tried going the inexpensive route when I first started collecting Mosaic Moments dies.

I put them on magnetic sheets I ordered off Amazon and slipped them into page protectors. The magnetic sheets weren’t strong enough to hold the dies, so they slipped off and fell off the magnetic sheet. Overall, the system did not work for me. I found myself not using my dies as often because I hated that feeling of disorganization.

ANNA GRIFFIN DIE BINDERS

Then, I was introduced to Anna Griffin. Her products are gorgeous, but the price tag is high. I ordered one Die Binder to try it out and was HOOKED. The binder itself is beautiful, very well-made, and strong. Then you move on to the magnetic sheets. BLOWN AWAY. These sheets are SO STRONG—the strongest I have ever held in my hand. The hard plastic pages that the magnetic sheets go in are also awesome and sturdy.

I love the size of the binder. It is 11.5″x10″x2″, and the sheets can almost always fit all the dies from one Mosaic Moments set on one page.

My label maker creates a name label for the front of the magnetic sheet. I also store the original die package in the backside of each pocket so I can check the die dimensions if needed.

Right now I have 3 binders that hold my MM dies. But I need a 4th binder! I will tell you that these binders are HEAVY because of how good the magnetic sheets are.
