Are others loving chipboard as much as me?! :love: I ordered a supply of chipboard coasters to make various projects and I am addicted to them!

I just made some 3-D items for a swap I joined. Here are pictures of them. Magnet calendar and Magnet post-it note holder.




I also made a 2007 calendar with the chipboard coasters for the front & back with cardstock monthly pages to flip through for my office. I forgot to take a picture of it when I finished, but I will.

I am so glad that you posted these. I saw your response on the other thread and was gonna ask you what they looked like.

These are so cute!

Those are very cute! Okay, I'll be the dummy and ask...Chipboard? Explain please. Thanks.

It is like a cardboard, like the back of a notebook - the brown backing. KWIM? Sometimes you get it with other items you purchase and just throw away. It is one of hot scrapbook/card items these days.

I purchased them off a SU Demo friend who bought a bunch. She gave me the number to call to order some myself, but the number has been disconnected. I am trying to find another number for the company. With this particular company, you had to order a minimum of 1,000 coasters. She bought them and then sold them to others who wanted a smaller amount. I bought 200, but am now thinking I should have bought more! I will let you know when I get more info.

Do you cover them with paper or fabric?

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to use fabric to cover them, but I covered mine with paper and embelishments. The loop that is holding the pen is even cardstock. I stamped all the images on the items. I got a great deal on the mini gel pens at Staples right after School started. A pkg of 12 for $1.50! I bought a TON of them for my projects!

Yep, I love chipboard too! it's what I used to make my mom and MIL's calendars with. I'm addicted
