Thank you! I always seal mine with a sealer. I've heard that you don't have to if you bake them, but I haven't tried that yet and I like the way the sealer makes the colors more vibrant.

I was at a SU party Sunday and the demonstrator stamped a tile and said with Stazon it didn't have to be sealed but when you add chalks, markers, etc. it should be sealed but then the tile loses it's absorbability (ok I'm sure that's not a word but couldn't think of another! ha!) so I was just curious what if you use markers and don't seal it? Will the colors run when wet?

Supposedly if you use Fabrico markers it doesn't have to be sealed, but I haven't tried that. I did see one that was done with Fabrico and not sealed and the colors had all faded so I just seal mine so they keep the color.

My friend and I are doing a bunch of these this weekend. We are using sharpies and baking the tiles so that we don't have to seal them. This one is adorable!! TFS!
