I'm still in the Christmas rush of making gifts, so today's Inspiration Challenge worked wonderfully ~ I made this coaster set and got my Christmas cards done. Whoot!
SCS has a super tutorial for stamping tiles if you're unfamiliar with the process. For mine, I rinsed off the dust and let the tile dry overnight. I stamped the map in black StazOn, then sponged azure and saddle brown StazOns over the image. Lastly I directly swiped my black ink pad along the edges of the tile.
I didn't want to spray my tile with sealer because I want it to be absorbent, which won't be a problem with StazOns. Even though it doesn't really need it, I still baked my tile at 300 for 30 mins ~ just to be thorough, hedging my bets I guess Then as the last step I attached the felt circles to the bottoms of the coasters in the corners.
Thanks for looking.

When I saw that paper I couldn't think of anything to do with a map. Good for you.......this coaster is wonderful!
