Tumbled Tile Coasters




As a customer appreciation gift, I made a few sets of these coasters. There are lots of instructions for these floating around the web. Some suggest baking in the oven, some only using Staz-on ink, some using sealers and some don't. If you search on Tumbled Tile Coasters you'll find loads of instructions and ideas.
.
My process is to clean, stamp, bake, and seal. I seal any area not stamped with Staz-on ink. Actually I've found the colored Staz-on used in high concentration also needs sealing. Just have a couple of extra tiles for experimenting and breakage. These are fun to do and get rave reviews.
.
For these, I stamped the flourishes with a Rhonna Farrer set from Autumn Leaves in brown Staz-on ink. I stamped off first to get a lighter, more aged look.
.
For the monogram, I used Stampin' Up!'s Lovely Letters stamped in Staz-on Brown. I cut a mask using SCAL software and my Cricut. After adhering the mask with some removable adhesive, I sponged on craft ink.
.
After baking, I sealed the monogrammed area by applying another slightly larger mask before spraying with 3 coats sealer. These were finished with a layer of adhesive backed cork for the bottom.

  15. In the great pattern of things you'll

    secure a B- just for hard work. Where you confused us was in the particulars. As people say, the devil is in the details... And it couldn't be

    much more correct in this article. Having said that,

    permit me tell you just what

    did work. Your article (parts of it)

    can be rather

    engaging and that is possibly the reason why

    I am taking an effort to comment. I do not really make
    it a regular habit of

    doing that. Secondly, while I can

    certainly see a jumps in logic you make, I am not

    necessarily certain of how you appear to

    connect your details which inturn help to make

    the actual final result. For the moment I will, no doubt subscribe to your issue but hope in the
    near future you connect the facts better.
