I dabbed Paper Artsy Fresco Snowflake all over then added a made up colour of (I think) of Sky and Toad Hall. Then Crackle glazed them. When that was dry I rubbed in copper acrylic. Stamped with a script stamp and then with some leaves from a set I bought in France two years ago
My lovely friend Anne has given more then a makeover to her coasters - take a look here
I would like to enter in the following challenges
Art with Heart - 'Go Green'
Country View Challenges - 'Anything Goes'
Anything but a card - 'Green with Envy'
Thanks for looking, Chris

Gorgeous Chris!!! LOVE the amazing textured backgrounds and the black stamping is so effective here! Amazing! hugs :)
I like the way you went green, and I like the way you recycled your coasters. They turned out lovely. New life and stayed out of the landfill, too.
So pretty, Chris!
A really useful up cycling project.
