Coaster frames

Homemade gifts are fun to give and to get!

This is a cute way to display your favorite photos and would be a nice gift also. They are very easy to make. Just take 2 coasters and cover them with your favorite cardstock. I used TAC's "Uptown Girl" and "Hip-Hop" collections to make mine. Gently sand the edges with a sanding block to make the cardstock nice and flush with the coaster. Punch holes in the coasters with a Crop-a-dile, add hinges with eyelets or brads and embellish as desired!










The Crop-a-dile is one of my favorite papercrafting toys. I use it to punch through just about anything, even metal! It silently sets any size eyelet or snap with ease. Host a FunShop and you can get one for half price!

Christmas Explosion Box Album


Here is a photo of my Christmas themed box. I used TAC's gorgeous
"Amelia Collection" cardstock. To decorate I used these TAC stamp sets: Punctuation, Simply Christmas, Whimsical Greetings and Christmas Season. Now, I just need to add my photos! I just love these!

Now you try one and let me know how it turns out!
