Default silver lining to retagging everything...

I get to re-visit and fall in love with all my AMAZING DD product all over again!

Sometimes it's easy to slide over kits you've seen in your stash again & again, but this has forced me to really see and appreciate what each kit has to offer

I found that to be true, too, Elena. When my catalog would not move over from PSE-5 to PSE-8, I spent weeks retagging everything. As painful as it was, it was a joy to dig into the stash....not that I want to do it again! LOL

That's something that I have been wanting to do, but it seems to overwhelming. I have so much stuff that I haven't used and it is getting hard to find it all. Your post inspires me to start working on it. Maybe there will be a silver lining to the time spent!

I know what you mean! I just started changing my little blank blue folders on my mac to the preview images and I saw so many things that I kept skipping over!

In the logn, dreary saga of getting my stash restored after a computer failure that stripped my tags from everything in Bridge, I am nearing the end, but I still have to check all the retagging. My new plan is to do it the 15-minute way. Set a timer, devote 15 minutes to it once or twice a day until FINALLY it will be done! And I agree that anytime I browse my stash for whatever reason, I can get some great fuel for my mojo.

Currently I just have my paper tagged... but I am finding I could really use some help finding embellishments because there are so many in kits that I skip over because I forgot. It really isn't very hard to tag and once you get into a rhythm it goes pretty quick!

Thanks for the inspiration!!!
