Has anyone stamped on a large glossy tile and used it as a dry erase board? IF so, how do you do this?

I have done this a couple of times. I got a large tile...I think it's either 12x12 or maybe a little bigger...haven't measured. I stamped a couple of different images on the bottom edge and one in the top right corner. I found a little easel at the dollar store (Joann's, Michael's and HL all have some pretty ones too) and put it on that. I bought some of the spray on coating stuff (I can look up the name later) but never used it. Ok, let me back up.
I took the tile and cleaned it with rubbing alcohol. After it dried I used my stamps with black stazon to stamp. At one point I messed up and just cleaned it off with the alcohol again. I thought about spraying over it with the acrylic sealer, but I haven't needed to as of yet. I sat it on a easel and use it ALL the time. As long as I only use dry erase markers and something soft to wipe them with, the stamped image has stayed on just fine. I made one for my MIL as well, and she loves it.
Somebody else has probably done more than me though. Hope that helped some! Let me knoe if you have any questions!
