Hefty 2.5 Gallon Jumbo Slider Bags.....they're a good thing!

No time to scrap these days due to a heavy workload in the studio but when I do get snippets of time - my latest thing has been to plan my pages for future scrappy days.

Whenever we are in the US - we always visit a Walmart Supercentre. I mean it's just no fun unless we go at least once a trip to see what the Americans get and we don't! Invariably though we end up going 2-3 times a trip! (Americans gets the best potato chip flavours!)

On a recent trip to the US I picked up 1 box of these bags and once I started using them I immediately smacked myself in the forehead for not buying 3 more boxes!

The 2.5 gallon bags measure approximately 14x14 - which is perfect to hold your 12x12 cardstock/patterned paper, embellishments, photos etc. The slider closure is the best for tired hands like mine. I've even taken the time to sketch out an idea for the layout and have thrown that in as well.

NOW, all I have to do when I'm going to a friends to crop is grab my tool bag and my preplanned page bags and off I go... When the layout is done, I can even put that BACK into the bag for save travel home until I get it into my album.

So -- in the words of Martha - it's a good thing!
