Has anyone tried storing cardstock in sheets of 12x12....Would it fit? It says 12.2 inches..just wondering if they would fit, or if it would be tight.

I just tried to put a small stack in there and it was pretty tight. The paper would end up getting bent. I would not recommend it.

yes. My covers were card stock. Actually, my entire book was card stock (I made yearbooks for my students). I just put in 3-4 pages a a time. No problem.

I was able to fit 8 cards in a sleeve, though they were a bit tight. Mine were all greeting cards though - so that would be 16 pieces of cardstock all together. I think you could probably fit 10 in there if they were very flat.

I got the sheets for 4x6 cards. But MUCH cheaper idea is to get plain old sheet protectors ($7.99 for a box of 100) and tape your recipe cards to a sheet of paper and insert. You can get oversize binders and oversize indexes so the tabs will stick out past the pages (at any office supply store.)

I don't use card stock for the card itself. I use pre folded blank cards (with the envelopes) then cut a piece of cardstock slightly smaller in size than the front of the card - pass it thru the design of your choice thru the cuttlebug THEN glue it to the card stock front of your choice. You may even have two plain colors of card stock (one smaller than the other) and for the third and top piece (cut smaller than the second sheet) run that one thru the cuttlebug for your designs.

I am not at the same location as my daughter's pocket chart, but we use them to house her 2x2 inch symbols. So, with that said, I would guess they are about 2 inches tall and if I recall correctly the length is maybe 6 inches or so. Tall cards would flop in the 2 inch well, but could maybe be placed sideways. I hope this helps. I can measure when I get home and get back with you if you like?

I've printed on cardstock, not sure if that's 100 LB or not- I make my own greeting cards from paintings I've done. It worked as well as on the regular weight paper. I do bump up the black a little when printing scans.

Yes, certain brans fit very tight, circo from Target fits , but is tight!!! Other brands I've tried didn't and ripped. I made many of my own sheets too. That was my best bet.

Just a thought (unless you have more than 48) -I understand they are posters, but with Exact-O precision, if you took off 1/8" from each side they would fit. If this is unthinkable, or the posters are indeed very valuable, perhaps you should frame them, or, as 'Carrie B' says get the next size portfolio up at 18" x 24". Of course if you want it to look nice, then you'd have to center mount them on 18x24 rice paper, or 'key' them back-to-back into a single leaf of combined poster weight paper (such as a 18x24 [70 lb stock sheet?] with a 13.25x19.25 rectangle cut-out in the center).

The die cuts at 5 x 6 3/4 so I'd suggest using a piece at least 5 1/2 by 7. That will leave you a bit of that cuts off and doesn't have to be placed so accurately. I also like cardstock that has color on both sides and is heavy enough to give the card some body.

There is some leeway in the sleeves. I have my cards sleeved and they fit fine. I use all different types of sleeves, and even in the sleeves I use there is plenty of room. In sleeves I put 2 cards in a pocket sometime, and can clearly see 2 cards if I don't stack them well.I'd guess there is close to .25 inches at least extra to move with.I also could get off my butt, get the binder and a ruler, and tell you that from the bottom seam of the pocket to the top is a little more than 3.75 inches. Probably more useful than previous description.

You will have to bend them open more to make them fit. I have mine on a 5/8" shelf and they're tight. I like that because it holds stuff in place really well even when I pack sheets on either side of it. They are durable so you can bend them open more for a larger shelf, however it wouldn't fit without doing that.

I find the immediate edges don't seal. I usually run mine through twice but flipped upside down on the second pass. I use it for insurance cards, business card, nothing really important. It doesn't really bother me. Did you use the sheets that came with it? Maybe try a different brand of sheets.

it will not hold the 2.5. the max might be 2 1/8 and that might be too tight. mine are 3.5 x 2.00 and they are just about right. because of the thickness of my cards, i can only carry 8 of them so keep that in mind.

For 4x6 I had to use sheets that only hold two photos. I've been working with all sorts of sizes, many of them more than 100 years old, and it has been maddening. Sorry I can't give you a positive answer.

Sure, I use card stock and don't change any settings, but I usually only put in one or two sheets at a time. You should be able to use the "labels" that are the right size and have the perforated edges. Just remember to put the sheets in face side down if there is a difference on how the sheets look front and back.

I find that I can cut about 5 sheets of card stock cleanly before the edges start fraying instead of cleaving. I haven't attempted dividing up a sheet with the kind of accuracy you're describing. Sorry.
