Step 1: Start with a white
glazed ceramic tile and 3D
Crystal Lacquers. |
Step 2: Apply the pearl blue
and dark blue colored 3D
Crystal Lacquer across the
tile alternating colors. |
Step 3: Apply a layer of clear
3D Crystal Lacquer over the
colored lacquer and blend
and smooth with your finger. |
Step 4: Apply the pearl
green 3D Crystal Lacquer
starting 3/4ths the way
down the tile to create
an ocean floor depth. |
Step 5: Next while the lacquer
is still wet sprinkle micro beads
and extra fine glitter dust
along the bottom of the tile.
Allow to completely dry. |
Step 6: Add accents to your
photo copied image using
the 3D colored and pearl
lacquer to create depth on
your image and set aside
to dry.
(**A color photocopy is
recommended instead of
printed so your ink
doesn't run) |
Step 7: Once your tile is dry
apply a thin layer of clear 3D
Crystal lacquer and add your
photo copied and cut out
quote to your tile.
(**Color photocopy is
recommended instead
of printed so your ink
doesn't run) |
Step 8: Next add your image
to the wet tile and apply a
liberal layer of 3D
Crystal Lacquer over your
entire tile.At this point you
can also add your mini
starfish and seashells to the
wet tile as well (**If there
are any air bubbles you can
use a straight pen to pop them).
Set aside to dry in a draft free
level area. Once dry repeat
process as desired. |
Step 9: Once the tile is
dry completely color all four
edges with the gold metallic
pen to finish your piece. |
You can use a mini easel to
display your tile or you can
glue a hanger to the back |
That is really a neat tile. I didn't know that the cystal lacquer could be used like paint. It really looks like paint on this tile only better. cool!
