Coasters made with Tiles
These are my new coasters for the craft room! So easy, fun and fast to make. Tile from Home Depot, printed image on light weight card stock and glossy mod podge. I added little feet to the bottom so they won't scratch.

Key holder and memo board
This was fun to make! I used ranger ink to dab the board with and really like the ink. Hadn't used it much prior to this but I will be using this ink a lot now!
The flower is one I made. Cut layers with cricut and the Mother's Day Bouquet cartridge. Sprayed them with Tattered Angel's Glitter Mist and assembled.
Copic Marker Storage
These are the storage towers I made to hold my copic markers, prisma pencils and gel pens. They are made out of foam board from the dollar store and not too hard to make.
For travel, I use a separate piece of foam board that is the same size as the back of the tower. I wrap wide elastic around it and secure with velcro.
Instructions:

Instructions:
Supplies Needed:
1 (20”x30”) foam board
Exacto knife, metal ruler and cutting mat
Aleene’s Glue (I used Fast Grab Tacky Glue)
Flat-headed pins (“Satin” pins work well and are easy to find)
Pieces to cut:
Back cut 1 4”x12”
Sides cut 2 5 ¼”x 12”
Top cut 1 4”x5”
Bottom cut 1 4”x5”
Shelves cut 3 4”x5” (these 3 are notched - see pic below)
Top Front cut 1 2 ½”x3”
Bottom Front cut 1 1”x4”
Divider cut 1 2 ¼”x 8 ½” (this piece has 3 down-slanted notches for the shelves, and the bottom is slanted also - see pic below)
Assembly:
Lay the back down on a flat surface and stand the long end of one side against the long end of the back. Glue in place and pin. Do the same for the other side.
Glue and slide the notched shelves into the notched divider. Let dry.
While the glue is drying, go back to the sides and back. Add the top front piece to the sides that are attached to the back. Now add the top piece. This goes under the top front piece. Glue and pin.
Position the divider with shelves, glue and pin.
Place the bottom piece under the divider, glue and pin.
Add the bottom front under the bottom piece you just attached, glue and pin.
That’s it! Decorate as you choose or leave it white. Enjoy!
Card Organizer
This is the cover of a card organizer that I am making. The image is a digital stamp from Mo Manning at Mo's Digital Pencil, colored with prismas and copics. I used miniature paper flowers, popped the frame and used clear plastic as a 'window'. Frame was cut with cricut. The clasp is from Zutter.
I am almost done with the inside and will post pictures later.
