Coaster Board Mixed Media Jewelry!

I ran across a video by Janet Wakeland showing how to make these neat pieces of mixed media jewelry!  What a great opportunity to use up my retired stash of buttons and other elements!  These are so fun to create!

I used the Big Shot from Stampin' Up! to cut butterflies, leaves and shapes from the apothecary framelets from Coaster Board.  To cover the coaster board with ink, I used the direct to pad method.

I used a hot glue gun to adhere buttons, beads, rhinestones and other elements to the coaster board.  After creating each piece of art, I coated it with Crystal Effects and sprinkled it with glitter or SU! Dazzling Diamonds.  As Janet suggested in her video, I'm using a magnet glued to the back of the piece and a washer to hold it in place on clothing.

To purchase crystal effects, coaster board, assorted buttons and other elements go to my SU! Website and click "shop". www.lindareaney.stampinup.net
