You may have noticed, I'm simplifying my style. I'm trying it out for a while to see how it goes for me. Though, I can tell you, it takes me a lot less time to make things. But afterward, I just sit there thinking of all the embellishments I could have added.Anyhow, on to the Unity Lovin. Were you at Hip Hop yesterday? I missed it so much! All my friends were there, it was awesome! Unity was having some amazing sales, so I placed an order. FREE SHIPPING until midnight tonight and they had great deals. I couldn't help myself.
However, I am going to start the Stamp to Spend Challenge. I'm making it so that for every card I make I get $1 allowance money for crafts. I get $5 per layout and $5 per altered items. Though I just started yesterday, I put in my creations and my purchases from the beginning of the year. YIKES! I am in the negative people! I'm gonna have to make a WHOLE bunch of stuff before I can buy anything. But that's ok! I really need to use up all the goodies I have. Wish me luck!
Very cute card! I'm also leaning more towards the simple right now.
ReplyDeleteI should do what you're doing. I just seem to spend, spend and spend. Eek!!
Have a good day!
I spend, spend, spend too! I'm so far in the red right now....I haven't even added up the release party orders I did. Ugh!
ReplyDeleteReally cute card. Sometimes simple is all you need. Especially when someone needs something quick.
Try-Try, I have not been able to do a simple card for the life of me :). But you do a lovely job at it.
ReplyDeleteWOW! What a great idea! I'm definitely in the negative...FOR SURE! Love your card!
ReplyDeleteVery nice, love the colors.
ReplyDeleteLove the card! And what a SUPERB idea! But I will definitely be ridin in the negative for sure... but that's how I live anyway. SAD. :-) Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeletecute card. and what a great idea to put yourself on a budget that rewards you for *using* your supplies. I have myself on a budget to buy nothing but cardstock until June. I don't know if I will be able to hold out until then, but I hope so.
ReplyDeletegood for you to set a goal! good luck (I should do it, I know I spend way more than I should). love the simple look you are trying out. CAS is a good thing!
