coaster art!

A couple of years ago, a friend and SU demo made me a beautiful stamped coaster on tile.  I just love it and use it on my desk.  Then I won another made by her that I use on my bedroom nightstand.   I just had to make some myself, which I did.  Fast forward to current date, a friend sent out a coaster SOS! ;)  (I made her one of these months ago for that facebook pay it forward craft thingie)....  Anyway... She got a new job and needed a coaster for her desk at work........ 

 

I stamped this tile for her.  I'm really pleased with how how it turned out.  That sunflower stamp is a much loved and favorite of mine that I've had for YEARS, made by The Angel Company.  The bee stamp is Inkadinkadoo.  I colored it all in with colored pencils and chalk and sealed it  I filled in a lot of the holes with dimensional glaze and lightly sprinkled with glitter.  Then I lightly tapped the whole thing (after the glaze was dry) with a glue stamp pad and added a light dusting of glitter over the whole tile and sealed it again. 

 

Hopefully it will hold up to the job it's supposed to and not smear, and that Betsie isn't walking around with glitter all over herself at work. ;) 

TFL!
