ALTERED COASTERS

HERE ARE THE FIRST ALTERED COASTERS I MADE FOR A SWAP. A WONDERFUL LADY, EVELYN, SENT ME THESE COASTERS FOR HER SWAP AND I HOPE I DID THEM OKAY! FIRST I CHOOSE THE PAPER, THEN I USED AN OLD SU BACKGROUND STAMP, STAMPED IT WITH VERSAMARK AND EMBOSSED IT WITH GOLD EMBOSSING POWDER. I THEN GLUED THE PAPER WITH MOD PODGE MATT FINISH, ADDED SOME EPHEMERA PHOTOS, ADDED SOME GOLD GLITTER STARS, AND COVERED WITH ANOTHER 2 LAYERS OF MOD PODGE. I WOULD EMBELLISH THEM FURTHER, BUT THEY ARE TO BE USED AS REAL COASTER AND NOT PAGE EMBELLISHMENTS, SO I COULDN'T DANGLE ANYTHING OFF THEM.

THANKS TO EVELYN FOR THE CHANCE TO MAKE MY FIRST COASTERS! IT WAS FUN!

ENJOY,
CHERI
