This Christmas Tree Ornament is one of four projects for my upcoming "DARLING DOMINOES" Stamp Camp. I painted the domino with Gesso, an acrylic canvas preparing medium available at Wal-Mart or Michael's before decorating. The Gesso will accept any type of ink and allows for greater flexibility when decorating a domino. Remember to heat set after each layer of ink & seal when done.
This isn't quite finished. I still need to drill a hole at the top and add a piece of Silver Cord so that it can be hung on the tree. If I could just get the DH to tell me where he's hidden the drill bits . . .

Great job, so Gesso... would this work on the porcelin ornaments I got at Michael's and have had a hard time with? Would you think it would also work on glazed tiles?
Thanks for the great idea. Have fun with the stamp camp!
