Friday Idea!


I hope ya'll are having a great week. A couple of things today, I am planning another workshop for this coming month and I have the Friday Idea for you.

The next workshop will be May 17th (saturday) 10-noon. We will be making a small photo album using chipboard coasters. I am making mine to give to Madeline's pre-school teacher as her end of the year gift, so I will include pictures that I have taken through-out the school year and I am planning a visit to the playground to get some more pics. These are very cute gifts for teachers, grandparents or even yourself. The cost is $10. You will get 10 chipboard coasters, 3 sheets of 12x12 DP paper, 1 Whisper white, 2 solid card stocks that coordinate with your DP paper, ribbon and grommets. All you need to bring is adhesive. I will provide the liquid adhesive we will use to cover the chip board coasters but for all other embellishments that you choose you will want to have your standard photo splits or tape runner. I need to order the coasters from an online store that I have not ordered at before so to insure that I get the coasters in plenty of time I would like to order by this coming Wednesday, so please let me know before then if you plan on attending.

Here is a sample that I found on splitcoast of the project that we will be working on.
