Shopping Our Stash #147 - Tax Man (Numbers)


It's Tuesday!!1That means it's time for another SHOPPING OUR STASH challenge! Hope you are ready to play along!! This week we're featuring the Tax Man...so we wanna see lots of numbers on your project for this challenge.

My brother, mum and dad all have birthdays within the next week or so. I made this card for my brother who will be 42 on April 17th. I think on the inside I will write "ya ya ya I know, you will never be as old as me." We are only 14 months apart in age!


LOTS of stash items in this card including the Old Olive, Pacific Point and Real Red cardstock (SU), the white cardstock is from a supply given to me by my crafty friend Georgina. I tried to match the bakers twine (The Twinery) to the cardstock, it's close enough, but not exact. The design paper is also SU as is the Pacific Point Ink.

So with all those stash items I also felt pretty good about using a never before inked Just Sayin' stamp set and Word Bubble framelits dies (also SU).

SUPER use of that SU paper! I always liked it for birthday cards. And your twine looks good from here! :)

I absolutely love your card, Donna! Love the colors, that paper, the twine (which totally looks like perfect matches, BTW), and of course, the snarky sentiment!
