What is the best method for using cardstock for my resin coasters?

Let's see what we learn with using cardstock with our resin coasters.

I would laminate my cardstock to prep it. Gonna try that. thanks for the cardstock idea ☺

[@havingbereiterdays2441]

Oh lamination! And that didn’t curl? If you do it with mod podge, definitely wait til the glue is completely dry. I’m pretty sure that’s why I got those few bubbles.

Really nice. 👏 I do resin coasters and i have cardstock, back when i was stamping, so im gonna give it a try!

I spay a light coat of polyurethane on mine first. I made my kids wedding dates on a board with their favorite cardstock backgraound and it looked stained. So since then I always seal my paper first.

[@havingbereiterdays2441]

Yes! Definitely need to seal the paper! I was experiencing weird curls if I didn't. Still playing around with this idea of cardstock in resin has been an adventure. 😂

Going to have to try this. Definitely will now seal cardstock first tho. Thanks for the inspiration. Happy New Year ✌️

Do you have a circle cutter the exact size you need? If so, please link.

[@havingbereiterdays2441]

I use my Cricut to cut the exact measurements if I am going to use cardstock for my coasters. I also have videos of using napkins in my coasters and I would use a scrap piece of cardstock to cut the napkins I will be using for that type of project. Hope this helps. Happy Crafting!

Where do you get your card stock.

[@havingbereiterdays2441]

I believe this was a bundle I found on Amazon or Temu. 😊 Happy Crafting!
