With summer almost here I decided to go with a mixed media art decor in a beach theme.

I first applied some Prima Art Basics Heavy Gesso in White onto the plaque and let it dry for about 5 minutes and stamped into the Gesso with the Prima Fence - Vintage Vanity Clear Stamp.

Once the Gesso was completely dry, I then sprayed it with some Dylusions Ink Spray, I used the Campso Teal color.
I adhered some rope or cording around the outside of the plaque with a hot glue gun. Then I added some burlap pieces, stickers, letters, and some Petaloo Flowers also with a hot glue gun. Then to finish up my mixed media art decor piece I used some glitter. To get the glitter to stay, I randomly applied some Prima Art Basics Matte Gel in Transparent and then sprinkled the glitter over the gel.
Super easy, and now I have a gorgeous mixed media art decor piece to hang on my wall to remind me how badly I need a vacation to the beach. :)
