Mosaic on Chipboard

Hello, this is Beatriz from Amazing Grace. I apologize for being late today but had internet problems for over 24 hours. This is what I want to share with you today: how to make a mosaic on chipboard.

Step 1:
I chose  butterflies made out of chipboard.



Step 2:
Cut scraps of patterned papers into small pieces.



Step 3:
Brush chipboard with decoupage or something similar. I used glue & seal, it worked beautifully.


Step 4:
Arrange paper on chipboard until you are happy with it. Apply decoupage as a a glue and also as a sealer.
Brush a coat of decoupage over the entire mosaic and allow it to dry.


Step 5:
Then add a coat of crackled Accents or Glossy Accents and allow to dry.


Step 6:
Ink the edges. Voila! You have a beautiful mosaic butterfly.


Hope you enjoyed this project! Have a blessed and wonderful day!
