Rambling on Saturday night! Rectangle altered coaster!
*****
Among the many things I love to do, I love to learn new things. I belong to a technique junkies sight and recently have joined Stamp TV with Gina K. It is a fabulous web sight with amazing video tutorials and easy to follow instructions.

There are groups so you can find other local stampers/scrap Booker’s and just have a really nice time. This week Gina K. shows us how to emboss plain simple aluminum foil. I am pleased with my first tries using this material. Even though it is thin, I found it to emboss easily in my Big Shot Express machine. It only took seconds to emboss the metal and maybe five minutes to complete the card. I a debating the ribbon, I think a sheer black ribbon would compliment the card more.

The other project (the one of the top of the blog) is a rectangle coaster that I altered. As you can see it holds a note pad, which I will stamp small flowers on some of the pages and I took the time to find a matching glaze pen which is attached to the notebook with ribbon. Of course, I had to add my signature butterfly!

Don’t forget blog candy. If you have questions let me know. I am enjoying the wonderful comments and emails from everyone!

I hope you all have a super evening! Stamp Happy!
