The books are basically the same... They are both 6"x5.5" made with plain white cardstock and chipboard covers, attached together with a binder ring.
For my stamp book, at the front, I have a list of my inks (note, I'm expecting an order of new ink and once I get it, I want to redo this list, in the order of the rainbow.)
The following pages contain all of my stamps, stamped into it with black ink. I have my sentiments stamps sets...
And my images...
I find that this book really helps me when I'm looking for a certain stamp, or just basically reminds me of what I have.
For my dies book, I have my alphabet dies...
...my shaped dies & punches...
... my embossing folders...
... and my impression plates.
Again, this helps me to keep track of what I have. On each page of the book, I've labeled what everything is.
Another cool thing that I can do with these books is use them together, to see what stamps fit with which dies...
For instance, I was thinking of using the top image of my SU! Bliss set...
And wondered if it would fit on my Mat Stack #5 die.
So I took the page with my die and layered it over my stamped image, like this.
And could see how well it would fit.
Thanks for looking!

Great idea Leigh! I had dreams of doing something like that, but I have never just put my mind to it and done it.
Leigh this is awesome! Thanks so much for sharing! I have something similar to this but have let it slide and now have SO MUCH catching up to do that it just seems too daunting. Must get motivated!!
