Anything Goes

Need a last minute gift?  I made these coasters in no time at all!  Actually, my two year old son helped me make the coasters! I sold some things at a craft fair and the booth next to me the lady was selling these, only I think she used napkins instead of paper.




1.Anyways, you just take a 4X4 tile (16 cents at the Home Depot, Lowe's etc..),cork for the back, E6000 Mod Podge, and some cardstock.
2.Just take Mod Podge and apply it all over the tile using a foam brush (the part my son helped with)
3. Add your paper (make sure it's cut to the 4x4 square before you apply the glue) right on top and smooth it out...you don't want any bubbles
4.Apply Mod Podge to the top of the paper and all over the tile
5. Let them dry
6. Cut the cork to fit the back of the tile
7. Apply E6000 glue to the back of the tile
8. Place the cork on top of the glue
9. Let dry
10.Enjoy!


The card I made for our friend who just built a new A-MAZING  town home.  It's cut from the Cricut Wild Card Cartridge at 4 inches.
