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
