I wish I had kept the barcode when I organized my stamps years ago.

Interesting...This looks promising. Currently, all my supplies are on Evernote - which is free and will go across platforms for you. Phone, iPad, computer, etc. I am not anxious to change because it took a lot to get everything on there and it works great! So, I’m probably not going to switch unless the company comes up with a way to import the data directly into their app.

OMG please hurry with the Android edition!!!! This is exactly what I've been looking for!

Handy app, waiting for android users.

I saw this video a bit ago and immediately downloaded the app. I really like it. Iagree with you that it is a wonderful app. I wish they had more companies like crafters companion and older companies that have gone out of business. But it doesn’t take that long to download it. I’d forgotten the technique about going to the company’s website for the photos and I agree with you that they’re much better that way. Thank you for all of your videos. Even though I’ve been crafting for about 20 years, your videos help me stay motivated and I learn something new on a regular basis.

To be honest, I might not have watched this video. But because I watched your previous video, your enthusiasm reminded me to watch it. I'm so excited to get started using this app

Love it! Need it for android and more of my companies, but I'm sold! Looking forward to using it when I can!

OMG...I think I've died and gone to heaven. I've spent HOURS entering my supplies on Evernote and I'm no where near being done. I love how I can add so much info, but the amount of time it takes to set up each item is crazy. I can't believe how FAST it is to just scan the barcode and have everything brought up about the item. It's great. I guess I'm starting over. Oh well, if it'll help me keep from buying the SAME stamp & die set THREE times in less than 4 months, the time will be worth it. TFS!!!

I would love a desk top version that syncs with phones as well. Easier to add items via desktop if you have available which is what I do with Evernote right now.

I am off to give it a try! I started with Evernote about a month ago. That Evernote is too tedious, BUT I hope this app developer will reconsider computer access down the road. Thank you for the introduction.

would sure love this to integrate with my laptop too because I don't type well on my iphone or ipad….still, this looks SUPER!!!

Love it! I’ve bought the same stamp and die set twice, this would help me at stores to remember what I already have so I don’t do that again. Thanks for sharing!

Just saw this today, and it is a shame I have to go to work......…..I could do this ALL day...…………...LOVE LOVE LOVE that someone came up with this!!! It's so new, it can only get better with time!!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!! Thanks Justine

Thank you so much for promoting this resource. I downloaded and started using it yesterday and was soooo impressed and relieved to learn of such a useful resource. I promoted it on my blog Talkin' Craft and recommended this KZfaq as I found it enormously helpful.

My OCD brain is doing a happy dance!!! Your absolutely right Evernote was so useful in the beginning, now it’s horrible for the way a crafter would use it. I can’t tell you how many times I go in to use it and there’s pictures missing, It’s even lost quite a few of the the notes I entered. This app is right up my alley, super excited. It’s going to take me a long time to enter all my supplies because I always throw out the original wrapping. I love organizing just as much as crafting so I’ll enjoy it. Thanks for sharing and always inspiring.

Oh my gosh I am soooooo excited! I ❤️❤️❤️ to organize. This is amazing! Thank you so much. School is out in a week, and now I have a summer organizing project 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Last year it was the garage😂 Have a wonderful day 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️🖍🖌🎨🕊

Justine, I'm a previous user of Evernote, but with the app updates and my new PC, it just is NOT working anymore. I even bought a new scanner JUST to be able to scan images of various products and catalog (electronically) my inventory! I was searching for another craft room inventory app and came across this/your video. Even though I'm 4 years late in seeing this, I just have to say THANK YOU! I downloaded CML and will try it out on my phone and PC. Just wanted to say thank you (again)! And, since it's December 2023 now...Merry Christmas!

This is so much better than Evernote, which I currently use. I love that this is specifically for crafters! TFS with us. I think $1.50 a month is not bad at all.

Thanks. I had just downloaded the Evernote app and was going to start organizing my supplies. I am so glad to have a craft specific app. The barcode scanner is going to be very helpful. Yeah.

This is great for those who have a variety of company products. 90% of my products are Stampin' Up! so this would not help me much. I use These Are My Stamps, which is only for SU products, but I love it. Thanks for the info. It looks like it will be very useful for a lot of crafters.

Thank you! I sometimes buy stuff I already own. 😥

Thank you so much. I was sure there must be something around that would do this and I found your video. So chuffed and excited to get started and hopefully spend my time crafting and now hunting through my stamps and dies trying to find what I’m looking for. Really love the project idea too that looks super fun and really useful as I’m always finding ideas and then forgetting them lol. Thanks again 🥰 xx

Hi Justine. Thanks for sharing this fabulous app for any of us crafter's that want to have an organized inventory. I see it as a tool. This tool is a preference that I want to use and excited to start with. I saw other organization apps but not for me. Great find!

Oh! I can not wait for the Android Version! I'm presently using an app. And I've discovered that I've purchased some stamp sets 3 times! Ugh. This app looks so simple and so dedicated to crafters which makes it easy to use and personalize to a crafters need without really having to add the details that are needed like the app that I'm using. I just can't wait!

Thank you for demonstrating this. I just looked and I can download now for android on the google app. This is awesome. I am hoping that Stampin' Up! is on here

Ive used MyMarkers for years

So happy to see this after hearing from multiple sources that Evernote might be on the way out. Hopefully they can get that import feature up and running!!!

I love this app. I think I learned about it from you. As I was wondering about a Where Purchased category when you talked about the ability to add your own category.

Will have to wait until the Android version comes out. I can't afford an I-phone. I really like the concept though. I'm am a crazy person who tries to keep the original packaging, so I have packaging from some very old products. They may not be scannable, but--once there's an Android version--I'll still be able take pics of the packages.

Thanks for sharing! As a retired teacher, I appreciate your comment about grading!

Fabulous! Thanks so much for sharing. 🌺🌺🌺

Thank you so much! I have dreamed of getting started in paper crafting for YEARS. I have made a handful of cards over the years. This is a great tool to start with!

Have a few questions already, primarily because I REALLY like the concept here. If I am adding camera images, how big are the image files? Are they saved at full size, as highly detailed images? Are they stored directly to the phone, or on a cloud server? I just don’t want this to become a seriously fat app that takes up all my phone storage. I also don’t want to end up with a huge file storage on the cloud with an app that ends up charging more and more $$ for the amount of storage space I’m using. Have stamp and die companies partnered with this site? If so, which ones? I know can create the same categories on Evernote, and build my database. Can others who have used Evernote to organize migrate their data to the new app? This may sound critical, but it’s not at all! Good products are the ones that engage these questions. The bad products are the ones you don’t even bother with. 😉

Wao this app seems awesome! Definitively much user friendly than Evernote (at least I never got a grip on it). Thanks so much for sharing this info, it is something I will use.

This is great!! I’ve been looking for an organization system for my crafts.

This app is intriguing to me and I really like the barcode idea. I’m in the process of re-organizing my craft room and categorizing my supplies, so I’ll probably wait until I’m further along in that project before getting the app. In my reorganizing, I’m putting items into different “bins” and don’t want to have to re-classify them in the app later on. But, I very much appreciate the demo and will keep this in mind. It would be great to find all of my “thank you” or “happy birthday” stamps and dies in one place while working on a project.

OMG. This is amazing! Thanks for sharing. It's exactly what I need. Most of my huge collection is Stampin up so that's a bummer but hopefully they won't want to be left out and wiil jump on board too. bummed that I have to wait as I need an Android app but will definitely get it when it becomes available. Thanks again

This is fantastic. I have loads of stamps, dies, and paper pads. Sadly I'm an Android user so I'll have to wait.

I love to organize and have been holding off with Evernote or AirTable. I just downloaded this one and subscribed - can’t wait to get started! Thanks for sharing! Hugs!

Great idea for home content insurance purposes.

I love the Apple app “Craft Cabinet “ to organize my crafts ❣️

This is brilliant, just signed up for it and I love it. Thank you so much for sharing it. X

I have been trying to find a way to inventory my room...have tried a few of the other options out there, and just not working the way I needed them to. This is what I need, so glad I stumbled upon this suggestion while watching crafty youtube video on stamp organization!

Thank you for sharing, I was just sitting in my messy craft room wondering how I can truly organize my stamps and stamp pads. I have saved my order lists, I’m wonder if this would help me with all the names of all my stamps 😆

This will help avoid accidental duplicates. Love it!

Love this idea! Ill be waiting for the android version!

I wish this was available 3 or 4 years ago when I was looking for a way to record my supplies.

Thank you for the introduction to this app. It is exactly what I have been looking for! Is there a list of the companies that are participating so far? I have entered lots of items, but hardly any bar codes have worked yet. Perhaps I could prioritize those companies.

I have this one & really like it!

This looks to be a great app. I’m presently using Evernote but, as you mentioned, there are limitations. And since I never got around to adding tags to my notes, this won’t be horrible to convert. A couple of first impression comments: I couldn’t find any reference to the subscription fee until I downloaded the app; presently $1.99/month. Also this is a very young app and is designed for iPhones only. I’m going to test the app a bit but won’t fully commit until I can use it on my MacAir or iPad in landscape - according to the website blurb, this is in the works.

Love this idea!

Looks wonderful. Can’t wait to use this app. Tank you for the review.

I’ve been playing with it for a couple hours now. Started putting in my copics ( that will take awhile). Tried my Nuvo drops. The only ones it recognizes at this point were the Glitter drops. No Dream drops, Jewel drops or regular Nuvo crystal drops. I also couldn’t get it to read the barcodes on my Lawn Fawn paper pads. But I’ll keep trying. I also want to message MFT and ask them to consider joining because I have more of their stamps then any other. Unfortunately no original packaging so I’ll have to use screenshots if it isn’t a retired product

I think this is a great idea for us crafters!

Oh my goodness. I am in love with this app. Thank you so much for the recommendation.

Thank you so much Justine for this video! I’d seen a post about it in Stamp Junkies and had downloaded it but since watching your video this morning I’ve been putting my stamps and dies into the app. I’m loving it! Thanks for sharing your tips.

I use Airtable to track my supplies. It works well for me.

Great Video! I was going to try Evernote, but based on your review I will give Color My Life a try. I love to organize and I am doing a huge organization overhaul of my craftroom. This app will be very useful. Thanks for sharing.

Great, I’m halfway through entering all my stuff into Evernote.

I with more company’s were listed but I did start

It has potential; need to be able to input Stampin’ Up! products too.

Thank you so much for sharing.

Oh man, I just spent several hours today in another inventory app on just my Distress products, Dylusions sprays, and a handful of other Ranger products. I lost steam and stopped adding photos, and I am totally dreading trying to inventory my stamps, dies, stencils, or anything else. Even without the barcode this looks so much easier to use. Rushing off to find out when it comes out for Android right now!

I had heard about this app, I didn't know the name of it. I LOVE THIS APP!!! Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful information with us, HUGS!!!

This looks great. I use an app to catalog books and when I use it I kept thinking I wished that I could use it on my craft supplies. I’m off to check it out.

I would love this but I'm a Android user... bummer for now. I'll have to wait... Thanks for the info though. 🙂 Since I can not see all the info is there a monthly fee or a one time fee? TIA

Thank you for sharing this program! I love being able to view pictures of stamp sets and do electronic searches. It gives you a comprehensive inventory of your crafting stuff for insurance purposes too. Haven't tried it yet, but I think setting up some projects will be really cool. I agree data entry is a bit of an effort when (like me) you didn't save the bar codes from the original packaging. However, very few of the bar codes I did scan resulted in information being populated into the database. I do like the fact that you only have to type most info in once, since the program provides predictions that you can choose from when making manual entries. I do wish the "quantity on hand" defaulted to 1. But all in all, what can be better than a crafting inventory program created by fellow crafters who know what we use and need?

Wow this looks amazing!! I have to get it up and running for Android soon.

I just discovered this video and this app🤯. Omg I was looking for this for ages 😧 it was like looking for the holy grale 🙈 I started a while ago putting all my data in another inventory system, but it is so limited 😢 now I’m using the trial version of this app. For me it is still getting used to the different system, but I guess it all makes sense 😉 I do hope they keep upgrading the app (eg other languages, possibility for a price total of all your items (I don’t see that) , putting links to your projects or to eg. inspiration boards) I don’t understand why I never found it earlier searching in the App Store. Now it will be quite a work to move everything in this app 😅😂

Evernote is constantly adding updates, but the application isn't focused on the crafter niche market. The application is intended for business team sharing. So, yes, the updates they do aren't crafter centric. This new app sounds like it would be decent if you only have products they support. Evernote is far more freeform which is daunting to a lot of people, but it allows entering everything your own way. I keep track of a lot more than it appears this app would allow. But, it looks like it would be a great app for a beginner, intimidated by computers, or someone who is daunted by the extreme flexibility of Evernote where you really do need to design your own organization. I work with computer software as my day job.

I am liking the app. However when I started crafting I didn’t keep any original packaging.

i have been "playing" with this app for about a week now....the sync issue is fixed (for me) and I could not be happier. This will eventually replace Evernote for me. love, love love

Thank you so much for sharing this!!! I have been wanting an app like this and was even talking with the hubby about creating and app like this!! Now I don't have too LOL!! Hugs!!

I won't live long enough to inventory 20 years of collecting paper craft supplies. Nice if you are just starting crafting, esp. to use the bar code. But I keep no packaging.

OMG this will be fabulous. Thanks for your video. Love your channel.

Thank you for sharing this app! I've already downloaded it and started putting in my inventory. Unfortunately, I don't have the packaging for my stamps anymore so it'll take longer but I'm excited to have a good app to keep track of my inventory. I've purchased many duplicates over the years!

This is ingenious... Are there limit how much articles I can add? I wanted to start a hand stamps catalogue in the next view weeks...but...I think this is even better because I can search and match things. I love the color picker... And often I save pictures with beautiful cards as an inspiration. With this app I can put everything together. Great. I hope the android version is coming up very soon...I neeeeeed this soooo much...noooow.

What is the thumbs up button for? How do I get rid of some, I accidentally tapped it several times when I thought I was tapping the camera button! Love this app

I am excited to see an app like this. Did I miss something or do you have a KZfaq channel? It would be great to see even more extensive 'how-to' videos on how it all works.

Wowsa!!!I I love it!!! Hopefully very soon it will be available for android, it does you need , and you can be as specific or general as you would want!! I'm a tech savvy fan so Win, Win for me! Tfs!!💜

OMG. This is amazing! Thanks for sharing. It's exactly what I need. Most of my huge collection is Stampin up so that's a bummer but hopefully they won't want to be left out and wiil jump on board too. bummed that I have to wait as I need an Android app but will definitely get it when it becomes available.

Looks great! Too bad I have to wait til the android version comes out. Will it allow you to import from Evernote, as I have spent many weeks creating my inventory on there. As well as can you sync with your pc or laptop?

I wish Stampin' Up was in here and I need it on Android too. TFS!

I'm curious if Justine still uses this app and has been able to maintain it for her supplies. I'm considering using it! Also, would love to know if the syncing issue has been resolved. I would love to be able to use it on both my cell and tablet.

Hi Justine 👋 that sounds so super cool a Fab way to keep track of all your crafty goodies thanks for sharing have a good weekend 👍💞🦋 Lin in South Wales uk

I buy from local stores mostly and nothing is in the database so I guess it is manual entry. It would be great if we could populate the databases for them.

I just installed the free 30 day trial version and am quite impressed how easy it is to add items.It`s so much quicker than using evernote or similar programs. Although the scanning function quite often doesn't`t work it is easy enough to search for product photos online and load them into the app. Thumbs up for intuitive usage ! I`d prefer putting in the product numbers that are printed on packages instead of the barcode. It would be great if there was a field where I could fill in how much I paid for each item.That would be convenient for the insurance company in case of a fire.Also I`d like to know if there is a list of companies that you can use the scanning function with.Here`s a few brands I`d like to include in the manufacturer list: stampin up, Elizabeth Craft designs, Tonic Studios, We r memory keepers, Marianne designs, Joy crafts, Penny Black, Memorybox, Poppystamps, Concord and 9th, Waffle flower crafts, Papertrey Ink, Simply made crafts, cats on appletrees, Lawn Fawn, paper smooches, Nellie Snellen, Cottage Cuts, Quickutz, Darice, Alexandra Renke, Charlie & Paulchen, Steckenpferdchen, Kulricke, Textures...

Brilliant!!!!!!!!!! I love this! Thanks so much for sharing!

This looks amazing - thanks so much for sharing

Thsnks for sharing! I am excited to try this!

Downloaded, gonna give it a try during my distaste. Thank you. I love your organizing. Did you make your blue/white storage? Tutorials?

This is fabulous!! Thanks so much for sharing!

Is there a way to manually add since I typically don’t save original packaging. For new stuff coming in this would be fine but so much inventory with no bar code. .....NM lol you just answered this

I hope it gets to Android soon! I love that this one has specific spots for manufacturer and storage location. It looks really promising. The barcode-based inventory app that I loved and used for years has lost the barcode look-up function. Evidently Amazon changed the partnership agreement the developer had, so the lookups don't work anymore. I have over 3300 items stored in that app. It's been great to check when I'm out shopping.

So which would you choose, CMW or Evernote?

Sounds like a great idea but with my enormous collection and no saved barcodes and all the tags I would need to enter it would take me forever 😩 then I wouldn’t have time to actually use my stuff . Wish I had something like this years ago😲 I definitely will investigate it. Thanks for sharing ❣️

Just an FYI for everyone. Two things... #1 for those of u wanting Android it says on the website Sept 2019... #2 ... I was reading about the new IOS 13 coming out in the fall that might enable us app users to be able to use apps on our Macs. This would make this app the total bomb to be able to use it on a MacBook Air or on a iMac. Just sayin

Yes, this definitely looks like a tool we could all use in our craft rooms. I purchase S&Ds from many different stamp companies and as well, I'm currently re-organizing my out-of-control supplies. I too have purchased duplicates before, which is why I began an Inventory Chart. This app sounds like it would be very helpful, especially considering if one has a ton of supplies because it will save a ton of time when 'searching' for specific theme, color, type (ie sentiment or image), etc. I will have to wait for the Android version but I too am another one who would love to have it on my laptop as I have problems typing on cell phones and it tends to drive me nuts LOL. I can't imagine the work involved in updating the App all the time...can you image, especially since soooo many companies have monthly releases! Anyway, this App has definitely peaked my interest when the Android app is available. Thanks, Justine....you're a real 'doll'! Hugs from London, Ontario.

I downloaded the app last night and have tried it with products from several companies. It worked with Jane Davenport, Tim Holtz/Sizzix, and some Altenew It did not work with Hero Arts, Lawn Fawn Or Spellbinders. Perhaps the failures were due to using new new release items. I was disappointed but will keep trying.

Evernote does not suck and it IS routinely updated. I use it for crafting (both inventory and inspiration tagged by product type and techniques used for), work, and general household like recipes, party planning, etc. Evernote has worked on iphone, Android, Windows, and Macs from the very beginning, effortlessly syncing between devices so all your devices have accurate and updated info. Other apps like this have existed for awhile. My friend uses MyMarkers which helps you track anything colored, markers, pens, pencils, ink pads, etc. And folks on Splitcoast Stampers also like Airtable for they way they can create their own database designed around they way they think. I think this app has potential but I don't think its the BEST... especially when you are promoting it and its not even on all platforms yet. Approx half of cell users in the US are on Android, and Android is more prevalent in countries outside the US. If you are starting from scratch with any inventory program, you'll be entering all your products anyway regardless of program. While Evernote doesn't have a barcode datebase or color matching, it has benefits that apply to aspects of life other than crafting, so I find it more versatile. My BFF and I both use Evernote and love the file sharing features. I can first check my stash and if I don't have what I need, I check her inventory stash, then I can text her with exactly what I want to borrow. Also, the entry system in Evernote is equally fast, if not faster with their Web Clipper feature, with tagging and categorizing. And Evernote can read text in pictures and in your notes, so if you are looking for a Thank You sentiment, your query will show all stamp sets with that sentiment stamp. I would have felt much better about you promoting this if you didn't dog another app first, then declare this the best, when in fact some will prefer one vs the other for different reasons. Would have been better to just show it as an option and let folks decide for themselves.
