yesterday and today: mark them as productive

Wedding favor labels, before: (I had to make 100 of them)


Labels after:


What I did with the leftover label centers and the extra tags on the sheets: (because you can never have too many stickers.) (Can you?)


I used some more of those rub-ons from last post to make a wedding shower card:


I made this as a test tile but ended up using one of the ones I had made for testing. It was a success! Super-hot tea didn't pull any of the glue or the rub-ons off the tile, so no worries there. This one I added a hanger to and am sending it to a friend as a "happy new apartment!" gift.

his and hers

You know, I'm really having fun with the creating something every day thing. It's nice stress relief.

A friend gave me a set of rub-ons from Luxe Designs. I just used them on top of regular white tiles I'd picked up at Lowe's a long time ago turning them into coasters. I still need to put some sort of backing on (probably felt) but I like how they came out.


I coated them with Mod Podge and it just occurred to me I probably should make a test tile to see how it stands up with a teacup. Can't give a bad wedding gift.


If it doesn't work I can always turn them into wall hangings!
