Hello my crafty friends! Last week I made these four coasters to match my new dinning room furniture. And I’m loving they way they came out. I’ll list products down below.
Art Resin Coasters made by Annalicia Spannaus
On the left is the front of the coasters and the right is the back. I love making art resin coasters because you get two beautiful different looks of the coasters. So you can used either side. I also love the way you can see the veins threw the coasters.
I started first mixing my Art Resin I used 3 ounces of harder and 3 ounces resin so total of 6 ounces. Mixed for 3 minutes, set your timer and sometimes I mix another few minutes more. The most important thing is to mix it for 3 minutes. I took resin and pour some in a cup, add Martha Stewart sterling glitter flakes. Pour this first on to my Leobro puzzle silicone mold, 4 quarter circle patterns with irregular edge. Second mix is Black Damond pigment powder liquid metal pearl, pour next around the outside mold. Third pour was black Diamond pigment powder white Diamond effect. Pour next to the metal pearl. Fourth pour was jus the art resin clear and around the white. Took a heat-gun and move it around for a few minutes to get the look I wanted and to get rid of any bubbles.
I had a little left over so I made a smaller coaster. I cover and let set for 24 hours.
Here’s pictures of products I used. I purchased from Amazon and Black Diamond. Thank you for checking out my blog. If you like please let me know or leave a comment. Have a wonderful day. Simplycraftydesigns.com by Annalicia Spannaus

Hello my crafty friends! Yesterday I decided to do a resin pour using Art Resin and Arteza mica powders. I got a set of 60 different colors of mica powder. So of course I couldn’t wait to play. And here is how it came out.
I made five coasters and they came out perfect. Each one has there own look and shines so pretty.
Arteza Mica powders I used are Silver G4, sapphire blue 859 and bright blue 857. I also used Nuevo gilding flakes silver.
Before I get started I always make sure everything is in front of me. Because you know when working with resin your time is important. Working with Art Resin you have a window of 45 minutes to work with before it starts to get hard.
This is a beautiful set of mica powders, I can’t wait to do other creative things with theses colors.
I did do a video and I’ll post it on YouTube and thank you for checking out my blog. Please leave me a like or comment. Would love to hear what you think. Have a wonderful day.

Hello my crafty friends! Hoping everyone is having a wonderful day. For the passed three days I have been working on Halloween cards. The stamp I chooses is called A Spooky Day made by Picket Fence Studios. I fell in love with it, because I saw another card made by this stamp, I’m pretty sure it was on their blog. So thank you Picket Fence for making and sharing a cute card and to the creator. I love when I get inspired by others. I did change a couple of thing and add some to the cards. I will list all products I used down bellow.

Hello my crafty friends! Yesterday I made this cute Halloween card with Tim Holtz products. Last year Tim Holtz came out with the Jolly St. Nick thinlits. And I fell in love with it. So last year I made a Halloween card with it. It posted of Oct. 2019 if you want to check it out. I told myself that each year I was going to make another one using Jolly St. Nick. So I did yesterday and it came out cute. I’ll list everything for you guys down below. Hope you like and if you do please let me know.
Jolly St. NickLoving the spiders coming out of his beard and jacket. Loving the spiders in the tree, ghost flying away and Jolly St. Nick carrying his pumpkin.
Keep it simple, lay out your Tim Holtz Halloween Kraft-stock and Jolly St. Nick Thinlits first. Then start cutting them out and also it important to keep each piece together.
Next I used Tim Holtz watercolor paper and TH alterations big die call (branch tree). Then took distress stain ( vintage photo, walnut stain and wild honey) painted the trees. Let dry before using TH 3-D texture fade (lumber) #662718. Plus as you can see I cut out two tress because I wanted the tree to have dimensions to it.
Next working on my background I took Tim Holtz watercolor paper and distress oxides ( hickory smoke, black soot, carved pumpkin, mustard seed and squeezed lemonade). Blended the colors together. Also die cut a circle to use for the moon. Took a water brush and splatters water over the water color paper and took a paper towel and tap dry. Cut out my spiders, ghost, cat and pumpkin using Tim Holtz Frightful Things Thinlits #664209. Used ranger glossy accents over the spiders, pumpkin and jolly St. nick eye glass piece and belt buckle. Took Tim Holtz small talk stickers occasions and distress oxide black soot to give it a little shade. The web came from an old set of Tim hotlz stamp and die I had. Sorry don’t know the name or number. But you can used his new out there.
Everything I used is here…..If you have any questions please let me know. Have a wonderful day.
Hello my crafty friends! Hope everyone is waking up to a beautiful morning. I woke up this morning thinking how can I organize my Tim Holtz Halloween thinlits. I remember I had this old wooden box that my father made me when he was working for a lumber company. So I went into my craft room and got busy.
I used Tim Holtz Distress Stains: walnut stain and vintage photo. Very simple and very easy. I cover the box 4 times with the stains. Until I got the look I wanted. I let dry in between applications. I used my P-touch to make my labels and then I was all done. Simple and sweet. I’m working on another one for my Tim Holtz Christmas Thinlits.
Thank you for checking out my blog. Have a wonderful day.
