Wine coaster

For the wine enthusiast in your life....or just because they look nice :-)  For this coaster I've colored in parts and I 'chalked' the edge of the coaster with purple Stazon ink.

Snowman coasters

The pics didn't come out that good for these little fellas - they are much brighter in real life.  In any event, these are a popular sell at my craft fairs...but only during the winter months :-)  I make these guys in a few different color schemes, but I've only shown two here.  What I like about the snowmen is that you can use them all winter long - no matter what holidays you celebrate!  And you don't have to put them away when your decorations go back into storage.

Red Heart Coasters

Two versions of the heart coaster - one plain, one with French script behind it.  To do the layered one, I first stamped the heart onto a post-it note, then I cut it out.  This was to cover the heart on the coaster to then layer the French script over it.

Garden Whimsy coaster set

Similar to the Cheers to you set, this one has a different picture on each coaster.  The stamp set used was Garden Whimsy by Stampin' Up.

Coffee Ring coaster

Although my hubby doesn't find the humor in this one, I love it.  I found this while looking for drink stamps - it's from Inkadinkado - don't you just love saying that?! LOL  In any event... I thought this was a fun stamp to put on a coaster...no matter what you're drinking :-)

Cheers to You coaster set

Another of my favorite sets! Cheers to You by Stampin' Up.  I had fun coloring this one in with Sharpies.  What I like about this set (aside from the cute little beverages) is that they are different so you can remember which drink is yours :-)

flowers/dragonfly coaster

I made this coaster set for a friend who loves dragonflies.  It was more difficult than I imagined to find a dragonfly stamp, but alas I found one that worked.

Baroque Motifs coaster 2

Here are more coasters from the Baroque Motifs set.  I've done this in a bunch of colors, but only am showcasing a couple here....you can use your imagination for the other colors tee hee.  The second one has French script behind the Baroque Motif center.

Coasters

This week I'll be posting some of the coasters that I've made.  This is one of my favs! I love this stamp set!  It's Baroque Motifs by Stampin' Up.  I've given lots of my coaster sets away and they are my number one seller at my craft fairs.  Enjoy!

Hello!  Merry Christmas! Happy New Year!
Now that the holidays are behind us...and I'm almost done wading through all the stuff the kids got...it's time to get back into crafting!  Soon I'll be posting again on a regular basis.  I hope everyone had a great holiday season!
