Stamping on Sea Glass by Susan Chong

You can get Sea Glass at craft stores and many “big box” stores such as Wal*Mart and Target.

Choose the piece that you would like to work with.  (The creative possibilities are almost endless!)  Ink up your stamp with StazOn.  (You may use other inks compatible with non-porous surfaces)

Find the smooth side of the glass and press the glass firmly onto the stamp.  Lift straight up from the stamp.

Allow to dry.  Choose 1-2 colors of acrylic paint you would like to apply to the back of the glass to highlight the stamped image.  Mix in a disposable bowl and then apply to the BACK of the stamped glass. (the non inked side)  Allow to dry completely!!

You may finish the pieces by edging with Gold Krylon Leafing Pens or other Glass Paint.
Once completely dry, you may use to embellish cards, ATCs, collages, shrines, and other projects.  You can also make the pieces into jewelry or magnets.  Use your imagination and see what YOU can come up with.

(for this particular piece, the paint was applied around the stamped image ON THE STAMPED SIDE!  This leaves the area clear through the remaining stamped image so colors and papers will show through)
