Back in the days when I was a Stampin' Up demonstrator, actively trying to please my customers and get more customers, I used to buy stuff that I didn't really need or want, just so that I could show my customers and possibly make a sale. Was this a recipe for financial failure? Oh yeah!
I recently found this little tin of stickers called "Little Reminders" in my stamp stash. Well, I might as well use the flowers of my folly! I pulled them out today and crafted a very simple card for the Clean and Simple challenge.

On the Splitcoast Stampers forums, we've been discussing ways to be frugal and save money. One suggestion? Stay out of stores! Oh, yeah! I know this one! There are a few silly things that I need from Archivers (a new cutting blade, glue dots, etc) but I'm trying hard to stay out of the store so that I won't be tempted! Let's face it...I could open a store here in my home with all of the silly purchases I've made in the past! I've been doing a great job lately of using what I have, and you know what? It feels good!
I need a lot of Little Reminders like this tin of stickers to shop smarter!
