Adventures in Mod Podge- That's My King!

Chris has become kind of obsessed with a sermon done by Dr. S. M. Lockridge entitled "That's My King". They showed this video at our church http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzqTFNfeDnE and it's pretty amazing and inspiring. Well, it turns out the video is a shortened version of the actual sermon, which Chris downloaded on his phone.

Rewind to a month ago when I was walking around TJ maxx and found these on sale for a dollar each.....

I decided to try to mod podge after being inspired by blogs like this one http://www.modpodgerocksblog.com/.

From what I was told, mod podging on canvas was pretty easy. I just needed something to put on them to cover up the horrible flippy floppies.

Fast Forward to "That's my King". I knew I wanted to use alot of different fonts and put as much of the sermon as I could. So I edited the fonts (took forever but Oh so fun) and printed the pages (8 of them, 2 on each canvas).

I made sure to paint A LOT of M.P. on the canvas and then position my paper. Lesson: Mod Podge dries quick so you gotta work fast. I also had a tiny rubber roller to smooth out the bubbles. Then I dipped my foam brush in the M.P. and painted the beejezus out of the top of the paper, smoothing as I went.

I put a thin strip of black paper between the two different parts and continued to paint over the entire project.

This is the finished project. When the glue dried, the paper felt as though it was part of the canvas. I need to take a close up picture and a picture of them on our wall but they're pretty UH-mazing! Love Love Love.
