Heart coaster

Hello and welcome to my blog.

As a follow up to my last challenge post, I thought you may like to see some other variations of the mug coasters that I have made with the Artcuts 15cm. hearts. They are great to stamp onto.

So below are some variations I have made for family members, who, having seen mine, requested that I make them one too.

The first one uses the huge butterfly in the same set I used for the challenge (Patchwork Butterfly).
You can personalize them too. (Hobby Art alphabet stamps)

 

I did various owl versions with a Stampendous stamp called Pen Pattern Owl,  as seen below.

 

The final one was for my daughter's birthday. I like this image, it is an Indigo Blu stamp and is great  for teenagers and young women.

The words are from a Tim Holtz  Idea-ology book called Small talk. The words just pop out of the book and are great for sticking onto different projects.

 

 

The Impression Obsession cover a card stamps are great to use too, as you can stamp over the entire heart in one go.

This is such an easy project and makes a lovely gift. The recipient may even decide to hang it up as a decoration , if they can't bear to put their cup on it!

Hope you have a go at this simple project.

Bye for now and thanks for your visit, it's much appreciated.

More Artcuts hearts

Stamping onto wooden hearts by Artcuts

 I thought you might like to see a few more hearts stamped with some of my favourite stamps.

I generally like to use fairly bold designs, as you can see. They are stamps from various companies.
 Chocolate Baroque, Indigo Blu, Woodware, being the main stamps I like to use.

This is one of my particular favourites by indigo Blu. I have done several things with this stamp and am in the process of making a necklace pendant at the moment.

 

He just needs some crowns to go either side of him, to complete the banner.

It's so sweet.

 

 

 

 

I have stamped straight onto the wood with Versafine and then coloured. with watercolour pencils. The background colour is done with a variety of mediums, Versamagic and Brilliance inkpads are my favourite way of colouring the backgrounds but slightly watered down acrylic paint gives a lovely light  wash effect, and can look good too.

 

 

This is a close up of one of my favourite cards. it is stamped with a gorgeous fushia stamp by Chocolate Baroque. The background paper is one of the lovely handmade screen printed papers that Artcuts sells.

 

 

 

 

I have overlaid a smaller heart over the big heart, although it is difficult to see this in the photo.

 

Thank you for visiting.
