350 Cards & Gifts–My Fave Project!

Hello Again!

350 Cards & Gifts Cover

So, I don’t do this very often, and I’m not sure exactly why.  But I wanted to share a project that I created for the newest Paper Crafts Magazine special issue, 350 Cards & Gifts, Vol. 2., because it’s very near and dear to my heart.

350 Cards & Gifts Coasters

I had several projects picked up for this special issue (which is beyond thrilling to me in and of itself), but this project especially made my heart smile because it’s a project that features my daughter and her amazingly cute family.  Of course the stars of the show are my two grandsons, Brecken and Brenner.  These are ceramic tile coasters created to look like Polaroid photos.  They were super easy and beyond fun to create!  For this project, and a boatload of other amazing projects, you so need to pick this issue up.  I guarantee it will be your go-to resource when you’re struggling to find ideas for hand crafted gifts, cards, gift card holders, and food/treat wraps!  I believe you can pick it up at any Barnes & Noble bookstore or JoAnn Fabrics!

Thank you for indulging me today.  I’m off to take my bestie to lunch for her birthday.  I hope you all have a great day – thanks so much for stopping in.  Please come back tomorrow as I’ll be sharing a few more fun projects for the Reverse Confetti launch!

Congrats on your pub...not surprising that you had multiple projects picked up!

You really knocked this one out of the park...I love how this turned out! Of course it doesn't hurt that you have two super cute grandsons to work with! Amazing, my friend!
