MB838-T "Rose fan, Lg." was stamped with Ranger 213 ink on 12 small dominoes after the dominoes were prepared by drilling two holes in each domino, painting with gesso and sponging copper and beige Brilliance.  After the dominoes were stamped, a varnish coat was applied and "Stretch Magic" was strung through the holes and tied with a square knot.  Bracelet by Margaret Wiggin.

MB21-G "Horse Portrait" was stamped on a prepared domino with a black 'Staz-on' stamp pad. A fine tip brown Sharpie was used to add highlights to the stamped image. Preparing the domino was done by bleaching it and letting it dry. Next, it was stippled with a mix of White Pearl Lumiere mixed with some Copper Pearl Ex. It was edged with a Sharpie bold-tip gold pen. Domino by Chris Coslet.

Domino preparation:
Start with a white domino, lightly sand until the sheen is gone.  Add Gesso (white) to the top and sides.  When dry, paint with a stipple brush using Lumiere paints ( Pearl Magenta 573 and Sunset Gold 554).  MC998-I  "Teapots on table" is stamped on the domino using black Brilliance ink.  Heat set the image.  Stamp the alphabet letters and numbers,  "TEA 4 2" on white tissue paper with black Brilliance ink and heat set and cut the letters out as one unit.  Using a soft brush, apply PPA to domino, place
"TEA 4 2" on the domino.  Apply another coat of PPA on top of the tissue.  At this point, the letter should almost be disappearing, but some of the tissue will show.  When dry, stamp on the sides of the domino with names of different types of tea.  Pink Crystal Lacquer was then applied to the top and all sides which takes a couple of hours to dry.  Tiny beads can be sprinkled into the Lacquer to give it more glitter.  Tiny green beads were used in this sample.  Domino sample by Lee Ann Atencio.

This is the finished card using the "Tea 4 2" domino explained above.  A frame was cut out of decorative paper to frame the domino and a charm was attached above it to complete this card.  Card by Lee Ann Atencio.
