My first coaster!

Photo Details

Poster: Addicted2photos

This ended up being so easy! I just printed my picture in sephia on copy paper, tore the edges for a distress look mod podged the top of the tile (1 thin coat), put the pic on, stamped my saying & then mod podged the top a few times. I sealed it with Glossy Clear Enamel Spray from Menards, but I've also heard Acrylic Sealer will work too! Everybody in my stamp club loved it! Thanks to everyone who helped!

I found my tiles at Home Depot. The regular non-glazed tiles work great. Ant they are cheap.

Awww, Mel it's so pretty! I thought you had to use the heat tool to transfer the image, that's where I was getting mixed up. TFS!!

This is great. The picture is great and the Bible verse adds the right touch of elegance to the tile too. Interesting that you used copy paper instead of tissue paper and it worked great. Thanks for sharing. Sue Nelson
