Boho Coaster Box

What do you get with 5 restaurant coasters, a bit of ribbon, Designer Paper and some punches?  Well - a cute coaster gift box (or pencil holder).  You could put goodies in a cello bag, tie with a matching ribbon & tag!  I saw some of these coasters at the Dollarama in the kitchen stuff (5 for $1).

These are made of 4x4 medium weight coasters. 

STEPS:

1-Add Berry Bliss Designer Paper with Stampin' Up!'s Glue Sticks pack of 2 (my favorite adhesive for chipboard).

2-Sand the edges with a Sanding Block. 

3-Use the Crop-A-Dile to punch holes in the chipboard. 

4-Then thread with Pretty in Pink Grosgrain Ribbon.

5-To glue the bottom coaster to the rest of them, you could use crazy glue or Crystal Effects

Here's a close up of the focal point on the box.  It uses the 5 Petal & Boho Blossom Punches.  Add a brad from the Soft Subtles Collection and it makes a cute flower.  The corners are punched with the Ticket Corner Punch and paper piercing is added using a plain needle & the Paper-piercing template that comes in our Mat Pack.  Don't forget, all the prices shown in the catalogue are before the 7% discount.

If you're wondering how the Red flower is made, well it's a punch technique with the 5-Petal Punch:

You punch it out once, take it & adhere with a small amount of adhesive on a plane white paper & then Align the 5-Petal Flower punch in the center of each of the petals & voilà! 

See next picture below.

If you'd like to come over one night to make one of these, get in touch with me to book a date & feel free to bring a friend!  The cost would be $10 for the box, Tag, bag & card!
