New Year - New Stash Diet!

**cw18** · 09-01-2007, 01:10 AM

Whilst on the topic of mini-books......

Is a Bazzill Mini Mono (3x3) classed as a mini book? Only asking 'cos at £5 a pop for making one of these up I think I'm onto a winner! Have 6 of them I can make up as birthday/Christmas pressies, so that's a potential earning of £30 straight off

I think so Cheryl!!!!! (am i being bad???)
Hmmmm.... sounds like a plan (cept my diet is getting a big gaping hole in it now!!!) But at least it means im using my stash.

i think these ideas are fab and definatly helping as it means we have to use stash to earn more!

but dont you think it should be 50p for normal card and £1 for posh card

Dont!!!! This stash diet is beginning to unravel allready!

**beckymischief** · 09-01-2007, 01:58 AM

i have decided will keep my earnings separate from budget and then use these on a big treat at end of month with this month hopefully being my crop a dile

(see i can be good!!

)

Ive just posted this and it came up thread locked...so i started a new one and now this thread has come back up....scary...think i need to go to bed!!!!

Im sorry...i couldnt resist.....i bought some stash...they were a bargian though...

2 x crate paper Kate collection (single sheets bogof)
2 x crate paper Twirl collection (single sheets bogof)
I sheet of I Kan dee Brad frame stickers (in the sale)
and one extra sheet of blush paper to go with the class kit

total cost......£2.20

I have just completed the Paperdolls class kit which was a Lippy Chick Flip book so managed to use lots of hydrangeas, some more paper type flowers and a huge blossom. I also managed to use up some scraps of cs which were left over from an exploding box...

I don't tend to do what I would call 'posh' cards more than about once a year, though I do decoupage quite a bit which is time consuming. However, should I do a Bookatrix card I might well reward myself with a bit extra for something like that

Mine are for a treat at the end of the year (or sooner if I save enough), as my personal target is an A3 printer

So my payments aren't for stash that would simply replace what I'm using up either

viv, on the personal shopping list for your trip i would personally recommend any books by memory makers (and there's a good few!), i like loads of different styles of scrapbooking and they always seem to have something for every type of layout, just a suggestion!

**beckymischief** · 09-01-2007, 11:08 AM

ok had to buy some utee flex so budget has now gone!

lets see how good i can be only 22 days to go till next stash budget.........BUT there is still a qvc day which doesnt count in stash budget and if i actually do some more scrapping then i can earn some goodies!!!!!!!

that stuff is quite a price isn't it

I got hold of some utee last year that isn't supposed to need it, but :blush: haven't tried it out yet

**Helen M** · 09-01-2007, 11:54 AM

okay just blown it! just bought some stamps and fabric papers in the qvc craft outlet hour, mind you qvc was allowed on my diet!

however i did refrain from buying a kit on qvc the other day because of the diet so i am being good really!

I was busy bunny last night sorting out stuff for the stamping forum I'm on ... and finished 2 birthday cards (have 4 for a swap in progress and 2 ATCs in progess ... hmm what is a ATC worth on the cash for stash rewards front?).

I also did 1 DLO and 1 SLO for the 8x8 I'm doing for the Disneyland Paris trip I went on with my Brownies.

So far since the diet started I've done 2 DLO/ 1SLO/ 2 cards = £6
