I am working on a Christmas gift and wanted to know if I can use pastels to color in my stamps on tiles. I do plan on sealing them. I am going to try put I just wondered if anyone had an experience with this. Thanks
Hey, thanks for the information. I just finished using the pastels this morning. Now I can't wait to spray them and see how they look. I used knobbly knomes for a friend and they came out cute. Thanks again.
I just use stazon to stamp an image with, colour them in with pastels and seal them with a clear acrylic spray. I put on two coats. I don't bake them.
Oh - to get white pastel to really pop on tiles... run a versamarker over the area you want the white to be, then put on the white pastel. It will show up much better.

I have a question about stamping on the tiles - do you HAVE to use StazOn or can you use any ink? I used just the regular stampin up classic ink and sprayed a sealer on, but when I looked at it this morning, they were all smeared...Or should I have baked them first?
When I've done tiles in the past I've always stamped by outline image with Black Stazon and then colored in the image with chalks and my blender pen. Works great. I then seal the tiles with a light spritz of cheapo aerosol hairspray.

You will want to use a permanent ink or it will smear/bleed. I don't think that baking would help.
We did lots of these for our Fall Festival at church. We used Staz On, with pastels, and sealed them. We did have problems with very "holey" tiles when we stamped them with intricate images. We almost all of them!
