Thanks in advance for any and all help!!!

I don't know where there are directions, but I can certainly tell you how I did mine.

I started out with some rolled marble tile that I bought at Home Depot. They are relatively inexpensive. I wiped them down really well with a damp cloth and gave them ample time to dry. Then I stamped my image on them with Stazon Ink and let it dry, the colored with pastels. After that, I baked the tiles for about 10 minutes on 400 degrees to set the ink. Finally, I sprayed them with an acrylic sealer to keep them all nice and nothing smudging or fading.

I have also done this with ceramic tiles (the ones I purchased looked aged) and made sure to seal them with the sealer.

One thing I did notice...my DBF used one of my coasters for a hot mug and the acrylic sealer started chipping off. So be wary of that.
