Coaster Book for a swap I joined...

I had so much fun making this coaster book today...decided once I had started it, to just stick with it...so this is how it turned out...I used a PSX background paper from a few years ago...I loved the colors and thought it would make a nice background to work on...I used one of my swirl die cuts http://thestudioinpreston.blogspot.com coated with a thin layer of blue stickles behind the daisies...I stamped the message from Victorine Originals on vellum...sponged the edges with berry purple ink...
I used some of my new Cuttlebug embossing folders on the frame...added some stickles to the flower centers and layered that onto a gold panel...the frame is only attached on one side...so she can add a photo, etc...the verse from Victorine Originals was stamped with berry purple and layered onto a gold panel...I add a flourish behind and a ladybug to the flower...
This page still has some foo foo coming...but other stuff had to get dry before I can finish it...but this is how it looks so far...
This is the back cover...I stamped the image from Victorine Originals onto vellum, tore it out, sponged the edges with ink and added a flower...I sure hope she likes it...

That is really nice! Where did you get the coasters? Was that all your pages (the ones on your blog)?
