~ Banana Frog Hop! ~

If you have reached here from the lovely Michelle (now how cool is that table!), a warm welcome to you! Hope you have been enjoying the hops so far! 

As the theme focus on 'summer', I decided to create something that would be suitable for the warm weather that we are enjoying at the moment. With the heat, I'm always reaching out for cold cans of coke and they do leave water residue on the table. Using leftover scraps, I quickly created a couple of coasters.

These were simple to create. I cut the base with my Nestibilities. I added some stamped images and then laminated it.


The laminated sheet was also cut using Nestibilities. What I like about doing them is it makes use of lefover scraps, and they are great for just playing with stamps and creating themeless projects! You can further personalise them by adding photos too.

This is the end of the hop! If you fancy winning a Banana Frog stamp set, just drop a comment. Thanks for hopping by! Have a great week ahead! TTFN!

Great idea for a summer garden! These would go so well with Michelle's table. I love the layers of stamped and cut-out images. The one with the birds is my favourite.
