Birthday card and trying out my copics

Hey everyone!!

I've been wanting copics forever but couldn't bring myself to actually buy them. They are just so expensive!! Luckily I have some pretty great friends who got me a wonderful gift card to amazon for my birthday and with that money I could begin my copic collection. I ended up getting the ciao set A colors. I've been nervous to try them out and this is my first tiny attempt.







I made the birthday card with a cool chevron die that I got from scrapbuck.com. I used the dotty for you paper pack from CTMH. I love how the colors and patterns coordinate together. All the stamps used are from Jaded Blossom



Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend!!

Cards

Hey in with a quick post of some cards I've been making. It's always a good idea to have a few on hand and I made a couple different kinds with the same papers to save on waste and use up scraps!



I just wanted some clean and simple cards. I really like the CAS look.




Thanks for stopping by, hope you all have a great week!!

Handmade Coasters

Hello everyone! It's been a while since I posted last, but it doesn't mean I haven't been crafting. I am in the process of moving my crafting space to a larger bedroom in my home and well its a work in progress. I feel like I haven't had a ton of time to craft or wanted to craft since my work station in a cluttered mess and I don't have enough space. Over the next couple weeks while I'm moving/organizing everything I'll be posting some projects I have made recently.

This was my first attempt at making my own coasters. I like how they turned out but will need to work on making sure they are completely smooth next time. I am not a fan of the ridges that mod podge left on them.


I do love the paper I used it is CTMH dotty for you. I bought some plain white tiles from Lowes for like 16 cents each I think. Mod Podged the paper on, added a clear coat of acrylic sealer and backed them with cork. 

I got the idea from Pinterest.
Have a great weekend!! bye =)
