Hi, everyone! Ann Butler here!
When I found these Coaster Sets on clearance for under two dollars, I bought several to upcycle. They are the perfect surface to stencil on and with Christmas right around the corner, they will make great gifts!

Uppercase by Ann Butler

Ann Butler Stencil Tac from Earth Safe

Purple Tape from Thermoweb

Baby Wipes
Step 1:
Apply Stencil Tac to the back of the stencil
(optional). Let dry.
Step 2:
Tape off the container and paint the open
area white.
Step 3:
Apply a few drops of green colorant onto the
wet paint and blend until you’re pleased with the result. Remove the tape. Clean edges if needed with baby wipe. Let dry or heat set.
Step 4:
Repeat
Steps 2 and 3 for the coasters, except the taping off as you will paint the
entire top of the coasters. Do two with
green colorant and two with red colorant.
Step 5:
Place the Random Circles Stencil onto one of
the green coasters. Apply red ink with a
dauber.
Step 6:
Remove the Stencil. Repeat with the other green coaster. Then repeat with the two red coasters, using
green ink. Let dry or heat set.
Step 7:
Place the Flourish Alphabet stencil onto the
top of the container and stencil the work “JOY” in red ink. Let dry or heat set.
