Instructions

1. Remove glass from thrift store frame and clean carefully with soap and water and allow to dry.
2. Moisten a paper towel with rubbing alcohol and wipe glass to remove any remaining dirt, grease, or soap residue.
3. Position Single Rose stencil where desired and stencil rose using both Yellow Ochre and Sunflower FolkArt Enamels paints. NOTE: Stencil a random overall pattern on the pane of glass allowing some roses to fall off the edges of the glass. Allow to dry.
4. Using scissors cut the photocopy of your photo to fit the dimensional accent pieces such as my base.
5. Apply the photocopy directly to the surface using Matte Mod Podge. Smooth in place and allow to dry 10 – 15 minutes before applying a top coat of Mod Podge over the entire decoupaged photo. Allow to dry.
6. Embellish the happy couple photo with a string of pearls and ribbon bow hot glued in place.
7. Cut the Mod Podge papers – Black & White words to the size of the frame backing. Place on backing and layer the stenciled glass on top when assembling the frame.
8. Hot glue the dimensional base where desired on the stenciled glass.
