Avery Elle5001 Stamp & Die Storage Pockets 50/Pkg Large 5 ½” x 7 3/8" , white/clear , Single Pack

Short version: if you want just 1 pkg of Avery Elle stamp and die storage envelopes in XL, this is it. Listing mistakenly says embossing tool but it's not. They arrived quick and pristine as did all other items in the review. It's long so I pasted it for all 3 to save time and crafters everywhere. Now the review in detail...Perfect for my new flip die, stamp, stencil storage system. I've watched others devise/test their flip die/craft storage over the years, beginning w/ Bible Scraps (Felicia?) + later JenniferMcG et al on YT. I waited to find/tweak a version for myself which I could see slowly being added/catalogued & placed into the bins I picked up by chance for a steal years ago (+ love them for pantry, closet, bath+ now craft storage). I watched Bible scraps (?Felicia) continue to update her system over the last year in old videos and btwn her and JenniferM, I was convinced to buy magnetic sheets and envelopes, and move to a flip bin storage system which would get me actually crafting again. My leftover and repurposed bins (the original Linus I-design fridge bins in a variety of sizes) are so far working out perfectly for this and these magnets and pouches help me achieve a flip system simple enough to want to use AND keep up with.I get 30 8x10 JW Crafts adhesive backed sheets for $29.99 + tax. You could use vent covers but 1) I could not find vent covers anywhere near me in stock at a price that competes with these magnetic sheets; 2) I need so many that these sheets work best. I can easily cut these to size and use leftover pieces to create additional pieces by adhering to a high quality heavyweight cardstock (or you could use chipboard if you have the desire) so dies won't buckle. I use a 216+ card for most backing sheets with lower gsms for full sheets and to back larger pieces in holder envelopes using partial magnetic sheet pieces. This even works for border dies. You don't need entire sheets to store smaller or even 12" border dies unless you have a whole set to store together so I have cut down a number of these and I have yet to need chipboard. I use 2 envelope styles (Samsill I love, and Avery Elle also very nice!) close in size in fridge bins I have had for apps 10 years. It has a uniform look and is eye pleasing to me. It is still a work in progress.These adhesive backed magnetic sheets by JWCrafts hold dies well. They're sized for simplicity/cut to size easily. When used with a cardstock backing, these sheets hold my dies without the sheet or pieces of it buckling, bending, etc and so dies remain on the magnets. It helps that sheets adhere well and have enough magnetism to keep things in place. If dies fell off somehow, they'd be protected and remain with their partner pieces as I store them in a pocket system so it's harder to lose them.I store dies on these sheets mainly in 2 types of pockets: Avery Elle XL stamp and die storage envelopes XL and Samsill holed version premium heavy duty sheet protectors (they're strong like welded vinyl job ticket holders). The Samsill are available with and without holes and truly are a nice heavyweight. These are not sheet protectors used in high school but a nice durable heavyweight version which is acid free and archival safe and fits magnetic sheets so well. ***AveryElle die storage envelopes XL are a workhorse and also work well for slimline singles, stencils, and stamps with or without accompanying die sets. They are a nice weight and have a tab at top to secure your items just like Samsill holed version premium heavyweight sheet protectors I use for my 8.5x10" mag sheets for large die sets only Avery tab is bigger and easier to maneuver. ***These I LOVE. The Samsill I use come with holes (helpful for ppl who may wish to switch to a binder system one day) and have the added tab at the top to tuck in to prevent anything from falling out (though I can't imagine needing it, but yes it swayed me to select the holed version). You could carefully cut those off to fit into a slightly smaller bin or just buy the no-holed sleeve version. The holed one's I use have a tab at the top to prev die loss while the no holed versions are basically sleeves. Samsill and competitors have these type of pockets/sleeves/holders available on Amazon in other sizes too. The JW Crafts magnetic sheets and these sturdy storage envelopes or sheet protectors by Samsill and Avery Elle are the key to this type of system working.***NOTE: These JW Crafts 8x10" adhesive backed magnet sheets fit PERFECTLY in these heavyweight Samsill holders so you don't need to use chipboard.*** They fit into the Avery-Elle XL pockets as well, cut to size of course, and I have yet to need higher than a 240gsm cardstock to support even oddly shaped "frankenpieces" of magnet sheets I pieced together from scraps.*** I use inexpensive 200-240gsm cardstock to prevent sheets in pockets from buckling but it has not been an issue with my materials, just my preference for using this. Chipboard has not once been required. The magnet sheets and Samsill pockets are sturdy enough that you could probably use copy paper. In the Avery Elle I prefer a heavy cardstock 200-240gsm cuz they're a bit more flexible but chipboard isn't needed with these sheets either and the tab at top provides extra security. Even when dealing with small strips or a small strip of magnet on a piece of paper, similar to magnet tape, I still find cardstock works for me. If it doesn't for you, are you trying to adhere your husband to the sheet? Set him free, place only your DIES in the bag on to the sheet, and if you are truly worried, you can use your chipboard or just adhere an additional piece of card to the first. If you require this, plz do tell me who or what you're trying to put in this bag so I can have a good laugh at your expense or alert authorities haha. As I said above, I haven't found this necessary with these magnetic sheets and pocket/page protector options, even when placing many tiny dies in groups or adding dies to magnet backing I pieced together using leftover pieces cut from these 8x10s (frankenmagnets). If anything changes, like the quality of future shipments, dies failing to remain magnetized, or I try other sizes of storage pockets by these companies (and I'd love to), or maybe I feel like popping my husband in the bag on a whim if he doesn't categorize me first, I'll edit/update this. So far, so good.These sheet protectors/magnetic sheets have been a relatively cost effective way to get easier access to what I have collected over the years. I get 30 8x10s for appx $30. The Samsill options are both under $20 and you get a ton (which is 50 or so as I recall). Avery Elle are also under 20 (well under) and I'd recommend buying 2 of all items so look for volume discounts. They work well for me. Using this combo of envelopes, I can store any size die or stamp die combo. Pouches work for stamp and stencil storage as well. For those on a budget, you don't require magnets for stencils or stamps unless the stamps have associated dies to cut them out! ***The Samsill had a bigger package of 2 boxes I wish I had gotten first since I had many more large die sets than I thought and they're slim yet sturdy. The Avery Elle, which also should have been ordered in 2-packs, are available in many sizes to fit bins that suit your storage options: narrow vs wide, deep fridge bins you tubers fawn over, multiple 11" bins, bins fitting popular cube storage, etc. I WILL CONTINUE TO RE-ORDER all 3 products I use and update if quality drops on any option.Each day I grow more organized, which is preferable to hosting "Project Hoarders: In the Craftroom with Stacy." I am finding more space and much joy as I rediscover lost items and sadly a few doubles while implementing this system. These magnetic sheets are truly perfect for my new flip die, stamp, stencil storage system. I've watched others devise/test their flip die/craft storage over the years, beginning w/ BibleScraps (Felicia?) on YT. I waited to find one that had longevity with crafters and which was simple and affordable enough to use and want to keep up with. My magnetic storage is easy to put in place in my craft armoire, cough cough, craft room or ok, yeah, rooms (im a work in progress but not for long Satan) and each day feels less like hoarders the crafters home game. Can't wait to finish, create, and find my peeps again under all of this stuff. Mama's coming, kids!Crafters, BUY THESE MAGNETIC SHEETS! BUY THESE AVERY-ELLE POCKETS in any size that works for you) AND DEFINITELY GRAB YOURSELF A COUPLE BOXES OF THE SAMSILL HEAVYWEIGHT SHEET PROTECTORS.

Organization is a major issue for paper crafters. We tend to wind up with a ton of supplies and finding what we are looking for can get to be daunting. These storage sleeves make that a much easier task!

Hey a great for dies.

These are my very favorite. My craft collection of dies and stamps is very large so these very economical, strong, and a very efficient way in which to protect my crafting supplies.

Good bargain for the price.

Love these thin yet sturdy pockets that help me minimize storage space need for my die and stamp collection and I have bought these in the past and they work great. I am using these to keep those small loose dies inside of a much larger stiffer pocket from swimming around and these keep them from getting damaged or lost. Small scraps look less of a mess with these. I give them a four star rating only because you must secure the closure flap with tape. Regular scotch tape does the trick and re-sticks. I can even use tape to latch multiples together. Less searching and less bulk. Without magnetic sheets for those pointy dies edges I'm not certain how well they'd hold up or contain them. Large enough to fit up to 5x7 inch cards/inserts as well, so I am very happy with them.I had a huge potential problem not with the item itself, but with another separate packages' delivery photo being posted in error for this item as well, when this package had not been delivered yet. I complained as soon as I noticed this, and requested it be fixed to Amazon customer service because it caused confusion and anxiety, but the system would not let me submit a message regarding this issue did not help. This has happened before where false identical delivery photos being falsely posted for every other package scheduled to be delivered on the same day. Even ones I was still waiting on to be delivered like this one. The second driver did not post a new photo for this particular package as customer service stated would happen. That is fraudulent and they need to fix that glitch. A glitch that is being ignored or is purposefully done I suspect. Different separately packaged items delivered at different times and or not delivered yet that are from the same order should not all share the same exact proof of delivery photo. Please fix asap. It is hard to trust Amazon delivery confirmations, when this type of thing is happening and not corrected.

Perfect! I cut off the top flap of each, and they fit perfectly in a photo box.

Perfect for very large stamp set organization (and I use the smaller ones for standard sized sets). But Amazon is calling them an “embossing tool” in the title, and of course they’re not — they’re flat storage pockets. I and others have reported that to Amazon starting several years ago but Amazon won’t make that correction that should take about five seconds.
