I've been using Tim Holtz leather-like album for stamp storage. I still love it, but it is full (at about 18 pages) - so I needed to get another storage binder. About the same time I decided this, I found the new pink Teresa Collins leather-like storage album online. After checking it out for a bit, I finally bought one.
It comes with 10 pre-bound sheet protectors, and, unlike the Tim Holtz version, you cannot add more. This is OK, since the TC album is not as thick as the Holtz album and does not appear it would hold more than 10 pages, anyway.
In fact, I was a little skeptical at first, because I thought I would not be able to get many stamps in the album. Happily, however, I have found that the TC album has bigger sheets than the Holtz album, and the TC album pages will each hold one entire sheet of Fiskars stamps. I like this a lot, since I had to cut these sheets into parts in order to fit them into the Holtz album. So, stamp sets that took up 8 pages in the Holtz album only needed 4 pages in the Teresa Collins stamp storage album.

In the end, I think both the Tim Holtz stamp storage album and the Teresa Collins Stamp Storage Album are very useful and each has good features the other album does not. Both will continue to have a place in my craft room.
Happy Crafting!
