Alternative tile choices

Okay ladies...
Many of you have asked for alternative or additional choices for our upcoming tile coaster class. I have a few more selections to choose from, and hope that with these new choices, everyone will find something to suit them. Unfortunately within a class setting, it is just not practical to offer every available stamp set as an alternative. If there is still something else that you had in mind, please feel free to make arrangements to work with me on another occasion. Also, I am happy to help you to purchase supplies to make these on your own! Once you have played with these and see how very simple they are to make, and how few supplies are required to create them, you may want to have supplies on hand to make whatever you like!

Keep in mind when viewing these choices, I put these together VERY quickly, while tired and medicated...so don't look at the artistic quality, but at the image choices!! I decided not to complete coloring on these, as I had not allowed overnight drying, and the images I tried coloring were smearing as a result - so I did not want to ruin more tiles - for those I did not color, you just have to use your imagination!

You may make your choices from these as well as from the ones in the previous post - just please PLEASE choose today so that I can get these done in time for the class.


This first choice is "ON GOSSAMER WINGS".
I did not make a full set of these, but the set includes 3 beautiful butterflies in addition to the dragonfly. The set of coasters would include a variety with the 4 different 'creatures'. For those of you dragonfly lovers, let me know if you want all dragonflies!










Next is this Tuscan Fruit option - I really liked the fruit and thought they worked well paired with the Provencal set image that was Italian rustic looking.














This is a variety of different "collage style" options . TO color these, I would probably just add a minimal amount of color for accent and an aged look. If you want collage style, please specify if you want a variety, or if you prefer one of these done 4 times.










This is a blossom variety - a bit more fun and whimsical. - Ignore the smearing on the orange flower- I was going for "ethereal" but it just turned out messy!


















This one is called Natures Sketchbook















This is a new leaf set that I just purchased. I think the leaves are a bit more realistic looking than the one in the previous autumn leaf choice - if you are choosing leaves, specify which one you prefer - and if you don't specify, I will stamp this one!
