My First Subscription Box

Sometimes I feel like I'm in a rut in my cardmaking. Am I the only one? It's not really that I've lost my mojo; rather, it feels like all of my cards are the same. 

I recently went through one of these spells and decided to try something I'd not tried before - I ordered a subscription box. A bit extreme? Perhaps. But I figured the surprise element plus being nudged to use items I did not select might just change up my creativity a bit. The plus is the items would be coordinated so I wouldn't have to think too hard about it; I could simply create.

I didn't want a subscription box that had instructions of exact cards to replicate. I wanted to think of my own designs. I also didn't want a subscription that I would be bound to for very long.

I ended up choosing the Pink & Main subscription box.

Perhaps I chose it because I knew it would arrive in a pretty bright pink box, which happens to be the accent color in my Play Room. ;)

Surely I could get creative with all these goodies, right?

I decided before I started that I would make three cards. Here they are (in the order I made them)...

The inside of each card is decorated, too. And the good news - the only thing I used to make these cards other than what came in the kits was some black cardstock, adhesive, and Copic Markers and Amazapen Gel Pen for coloring.
