Tutorial by Janette Garcia Supplies ● Untreated Wood ● Gel Medium ● Laser Printed Photo ● Sponge ● Small bowl ● Foam brush ● Acrylic Paint ● Mod Podge of Choice I have made this project after being inspired by Pinterest; I visited a bunch of different websites and did a bit of combination of everything that I read. First you will need to gather your materials. Your photo needs to be printed (flipped) mirror view with Laser on regular copy paper. I have printed mine black and white but you can definitely use color.
1 Step 1: I have started by painting the edges with Sea Glass Acrylic Paint by Martha Stewart. I am a bit obsessed with this color at the moment. I have seen people paint the edges black which also looks really nice.

2 Step 2: Next you will need to cover your wood with the gel medium this one (Artist’s Loft) purchased at Michael’s craft store. There are variouss brands; I am not sure it would matter much which brand you use. I came to realize that I used much more than what is shown in the picture.
