Tilda & Co ~Challenge 37~ On A Budget

The theme this week on the Tilda & Co blog is ~On A Budget~. Great challenge this one for getting the old grey matter working and actually thinking about how much our hobby costs, and that you don't have to throw loads of money at a project to get a fantastic end piece...don't believe me??? Check out the awesome creations from the DT this week!

Here's the break down of what I used and how much it totalled.
Cardstock - Papermania - 1/2 a sheet = 15p
Papers- K&Co - 2 sheets = 14p
Buttons - local needlecraft shop = 16p
Glitter Glue - Craft Tonic = 2p
Recycled Ribbon = 1p
Foam waste from sticky dots = 1p
Total cost = 49p

Gorgeous card Lorraine! Can't believe it only cost 49p to make! By those calculations, I have enough stash to make thousands of cards! lol
PS - I've tagged you (sorry!), pop by my blog to check out the rules.
