Hello! Today I am bringing you the second tile in a set I am making with some fabulous Dilly Beans images. I am making a set of 4 coasters, using travertine tiles.
Just as I did with the first tile, I printed the image on tissue paper, and I colored it with markers. I used Copics, and this time, I gave some Sharpies a go. They worked out beautifully.
I applied a few layers of Matte Mod Podge and a few layers of Krylon Matte Acrylic Sealer. I backed the tile with cork so it’s really a usable tile.
Have I said it before? I love making these tiles. They are a blast. And totally a conversation piece when you have guests using them. You’ll see tile number 3 soon! Please be sure to visit the rest of the Smeared & Smudged Wicked Bloggers, they are all posted in my side bar. Thanks for stopping by. Have a fang-tastic day!
This is a great idea for coasters. I love your colour choices and the image.
Such a fabulous idea using the tissue. I will have to try that one since I have had nothing but problems stamping direct to tile. Thank you for sharing your art.
This is beautiful! Great job on coloring! You know at PPP, there is a DOTD challenge going on and DB is the sponsor. I love your card!
Peace,
Kristy

They say the third time's a charm so I'm going to try one more time to get this comment published. I love your brightly colored tiles, the lovely stamp and the fact that these are going to be useful items and show stoppers, at that!
