Taxes Thank You


I have been trying to come up with a card to thank my father for doing my taxes this year (Yes, that's right, I am 30 years old, with a family of my own, and my wonderful father still does my taxes).
I came up with this card, and I am pretty happy with it. I printed a 1040 tax form, that I made smaller off the computer, onto Ivory card stock and then sponged the edges. I thought about the Boston Tea Party and the beginning of taxes so I made tea boxes and then faux wood-grained them with markers and then stamped TEA on them.


I used the Heartfelt Thanks stamp set for the Thanks on the front and then shaded the letters with a marker to make them stand out more.


I made a little pocket with tea bags to go on the inside too!

Scrapbooking with Bright Colors


I decided to go to of my comfort zone and use some bright colors for this page. I think it ended up pretty good, especially in person it looks a lot better then the photos.
I used the 2-1/2" Circle Punch for some of the photos which is the perfect size for scrapbooking!
I also used the large die alphabet for the Big Shot from Stampin' Up which was well worth the purchase. I use these big letters so much, way more then I thought I would.
