First, is a coaster, I actually made a coaster set, all the same as this one, and followed Gina's technique shown on Stamp TV. I used Melanie's set 'A Charmed Life' from Gina K Designs
I really love how this coaster set turned out! I think my brother and SIL in Houston will like a set like this, they drink wine alot, haha! I used the stayz on ink on this, and to get the red inside of the wine glass I used a q-tip to apply it. To highlight in the middle, I just lightly sanded that area. I think this whole set, all 4 coasters took me maybe 30 minutes to make! That is like QUICK for me, lol!!
And then I played in the 3D challenge for this month at StampTV hosted by Donna, and it was to make a bookmark. I read ALOT...and I mean alot...I feel lost if I do not have anything to read! So when I saw the challenge, I decided I was going to make myself a bookmark, and here it is:
Donna had hers laminated and I really liked that idea so I did that to mine too. Besides protecting it, it gives it more strength too. I really like my new bookmark! *big grin*
Ok, thats all for now. I do have a card made, but will save that for tomorrow to post. Did ya'll notice too that blogger has a scheduled outage for 2am (PDT) Wed? I have no clue what time this is for me (CST), so hoping this goes through, lol!! Thanks for stopping by!!

I love your coaster & bookmark (wasn't it nice to make yourself something?!) I LOVE the laminating of it, for sturdiness! It's Pacific Daylight Time (Westcoast) during Summer - PST when it's Winter. We are always 2 hours ahead of that.
Cat, did you say you needed my address in order to send me the coaster set and bookmark? LOL You have such talent, both projects are beautiful. Thanks for the ideas!

You are such a talented stamper! I love the coaster. I just learned how to do this last weekend and I can't wait to make more. I have the decorative tiles on my blog that I made for Mothers Day.
