Today is my sweet friend, Kayce’s birthday!!
I wanted to make a fun gift for her that she would enjoy, and would also be inexpensive. We’re about to close on our new house!! YAY! But that means there’s not any a whole lot of extra money floating around for birthday gifts….
Anyway… Miss Kayce is a Poker playing fool!
I know the idea of tile coasters isn’t new…
Remember these Tile Coasters that I made for some friends using my Silhouette??
Well…
I put a new spin on them for my poker playing friend!!!
I put a new spin on them for my poker playing friend!!!
Luckily, I already had everything in my craft stash…
So really it didn’t cost my anything… 
But if I had gone out and bought the supplies just for this project…
They would’ve cost LESS than $5 to make!!
The materials needed for this project are:
1 Sheet of black scrapbook paper
Deck of playing cards ($0.99 new)
Four tiles (I got mine at Home Depot, ($0.14 apiece)
Mod Podge
Foam Brush
Mod Podge Spray Sealant
1 Sheet of Felt
Glue Gun
Scissors
Scissors
I cut four black squares out of the scrapbook paper and Mod Podged them to the tops of the four tiles. Then I chose a few cards from the deck of playing cards and Mod Podged those on top of the black paper.
Then I sprayed a couple layers of the sealant on top!
Finally I cut four squares out of the piece of felt and hot glued them to the back of each of the four tiles to create a soft surface so that they won’t scratch my friend’s table!!
There you have it!
An inexpensive, but SUPER fun gift for a Poker playing lady!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MISS KAYCE!!!

These would make a GREAT addition to your guy’s poker night table too!
No more glass stains on your table…
But the guys don’t have to use girlie coasters either! Win win!

I love them! My father-in-law would love them! I'm going to have to try them for a Christmas present! Thanks so much for the idea. Have a great weekend! ♥ BJ
Those are awesome! What a thoughtful gift! Seriously, they look so professional.
How fun! My sister lives in vegas, and I think she would get a hoot out of these! Thanks for sharing!
