My husband has had strep throat and an ear infection for the past two weeks and I'm exhausted. I haven't got to craft at all, so I'm just going to post the coasters that I made for the
Gingersnap Creations yahoo group Coaster swap. The theme was hearts.
This one took me the most time - the entire thing is hand punched hearts and then each heart was individually curled with a awl and then glued down.
This beast was a pain - I had the coolest gold paper incorporated but I decided at the last minute to add some gold embossing powder to cover up any glue overlap. When I used my heat gun, all the gold bits melted and I had to go back in with a glue pen and more embossing powder. Note to self: don't apply heat to things that melt!
Years ago, I purchased a shoebox full of stamps at a garage sale. The stamps are still attached to envelopes, so I sat in front of the tv and peeled stamps off bit of paper and sorted them by color during a horror movie marathon. Go
Friday the 13th!
Last, but not least, is this cute little clown girl. The background was embossed with a Tim Holtz folder and then randomly heat embossed. I was in the throes of a short-lived ruffle fascination for this one and the one above. I have odd interests. LOL!
Enjoy and thank you for looking!!
