I think! I have a stash of female birthday cards and that was my goal. But also trying to use stuff up, and in that vein, I looked again and my tub of washi on the side desk. I pulled these out
I mentioned that Heidi Swapp tape, the not-washi stuff that is more like cardstock in texture. Not so much used UP but reduced, at least, what I have left.
Then I went to my stash of sentiments and that didn’t go well either! I have a ton of stuff cut and ready but birthday ones, on white and not cream, are pretty thin on the ground!
Not crazy about either but I am determined, so I die cut that plain one with the stitched edge die again, and popped it up, then grabbed the bit of plastic with those few gems – dark pink this time – and figured I might as well use them all.
I rather like the finished card – it’s a simple design and yeah, the darker pink is not a perfect match for the tape colours but I think that is fine for a stash card!
So what is on the horizon? I have a few things that need doing, like making my June daily journal, and maybe a few more ATCs, not sure. 12 seems a lot, but I know what happens once the trading begins. Might be best to have a handful more, just in case. I also am thinking getting back to the art journals, now my card stash is bit healthier, might be good. Not an every day thing, but a few a week might be good. Also exploring a few ideas seen in random YouTube videos, maybe not exactly like the vids, but certainly inspired by. Then of course the crop is coming, and we have to travel quite a distance to get Darling Daughter fitted for new ice skates (at a place that specializes in fitting disabled skaters) and so much more on the horizon.
Shouldn’t life be slowing down by now? Sure not happening for us! How about you?
