Maybe add a similar bar to the one used on Piggybanks, it stays orange until you go over your budget which it then goes red. This would be a clear visual when going over budget.
I'm not sure how easy it would be but including it on the Budget page, but also when adding a transaction. So you select the budget on the transactions and it then loads the bar showing current spent + this transaction.
I've knocked together a quick example on how the bar could look on a Transaction Screen
Bar Example:
Trxn:
And if already over budget:
And if the transaction will take you over budget, then the blue element of the original bar could be red.
