Yet another find at the home improvement center! I picked up some tiles at Lowe's for only 37 cents each!! I couldn't believe how inexpensive they were!!
This is my first shot at stamping on tiles. I learned this technique at Splitcoast, and it's so easy to do! The results are phenomenal for how easy it is. All I did was stamp the flower (from SU's Long Stemmed set, which is one of my favorite retirees) and colored it with fine point Sharpies. To dry it a little faster, I used my heat gun. My only tip here is that you have to be careful because the top of the tile stays relatively cool but the rest of the tile heats up. I learned this by trying to pick it up too quick!! Ouch!! After I set the color, I chose this sentiment from SU's set "Friendship Flowers" which reads "The secret to having it all is believing that you already do." I love the simplicity of this one, and i have another one up there waiting for me to play tonight...
Thanks for reading. I'm kind of liking this whole blog thing. It's definitely inspiring me to do more!!

This is just stunning! I really love what you did, and such a great price on the tiles. Now I have to go to the store too! :) Have a joyous day!
This looks amazing! I guess I should give it a try one of these days. And, by the way, welcome to the blogging world!
This is absolutely beautiful! It would look so pretty hanging on my family room wall! :)
