Perking up a Chipboard Coaster








This is an easy way to make an already-pretty-cute chipboard coaster even cuter! First you take a chipboard coaster. Then you add dimensional glue to where you want it to be "raised". You could stop here and it would look great, but in this case I sprinkled on some pink glitter. Give it a couple of hours to dry while on a flat surface. Voila! Now I have an awesome looking chipboard coaster!
***tip*** Dimensional glue will hold its shape if left alone on a flat surface. Start from the outside and work in - filling in the space with glue. Be careful of tiny bubbles that will form if you swirl the glue around too much. Since it dries raised, it needs a while to dry. Try to leave it for a few hours or overnight just to make sure you don't mess up your work!
