Set of 4 Christmas Coasters

This is a set of tiles I have stamped to make coasters. I stamped them with stazon ink and let them dry over night. then I colored painted them and let them dry over night. I used a satin spry varnish to seal it and put felt on the bottom so they wouldn't scratch the table. I think they turned out real cute. I hope you like them as much as i do.
