I use an ink called ZimInk that gives a crisp perm image. I would think Staz On would be fine for the tile as many people use that for stamping on dominos and it's a semi slick surface. One thing she might try....stamp the image on beige tissue paper (can do many at a time) and tear out the image. Then use Mod Podge or Royal Coat or PPA and adhere the tissue to the tile...when dry it appears that the tissue is IN the tile surface especially if the tile is beige to begin with. There is a product made by Krylon called Workable Fixatif (spelled funny huh?).....Walmart carries it. It give a surface that separates many different applications. It would coat the surface so bleeding wouldn't happen. Several light coats would work.

I love these stamping poems. Someone must have sent them to my ex-stamping teaching since she recently sent them to me too. thanks for the post.

Maryliz, You are going to love this. Have you heard of Linda Franz? You must go to her site and see her product "Inklingo." She is really into precision marking and hand stitching, so this new product of hers is exactly what you need. I have used it and can vouch for it. Essentially, you iron the right side of your fabric onto freezer paper as suggested above, then print the hexagons onto the fabric with almost any inkjet printer. Amazingly, most injet printer inks will wash right out of your fabric. Inklingo includes pages for various sizes of hexagons and prints a very thin cutting line and dashed stitching line including registration marks at centers and corners for exact matching. You choose the page you want to print on your fabric in the color that works best for your fabric and can choose whether to rotary cut or cut with scissors (that layout usually saves fabric). Her CDs also include diamonds, half square triangles, half hexes, etc. The various disk collections include various compatible sizes of the shapes. I am not affiliated, trust me, I've spent my money with her and am anxious to get the latest book and CD. I recently participated in a swap of hexagons using Inklingo so I have used it and absolutely love the results. Her site includes a video demo of the product and lots of pictures and good explanations. I hope this helps! Here is a link that might be useful: Link to Inklingo information

Sorry it's a little long, but-- You can draw directly onto your stamp to get specific colors where you want them, just be sure to use pens that are safe for scrapbooking and aren't permanent, you'll stain your stamp - start by drawing in the light colors first and working with the darkest color last. If your stamp dries out before you get to use it, breathe onto the rubber part of the stamp - the humidity in your breath will reinvigorate the ink. If you're going to be doing a lot of stamping at a time, get a clean sponge and wet it down with window cleaner, set it in a rubber container so you don't wet your work surface, then just stamp on your sponge when you're done making the image. If your sponge gets really saturated with color, run it through the dishwasher with your dishes the next time you run it. I have a spiral notebook with stamped images of every stamp that I own so that I can see if I have something that will work before I dig through my drawer of stamps since they aren't organized very well. Stamp in black or another solid color and you can fill it in later with colored pencil.
