  • Brush a medium layer of Mod Podge on the washer - coat the entire thing.
    Paint the washer with a coat of Mod Podge
  • Place the paper down onto the washer with the design side up and smooth thoroughly. Wipe away any Mod Podge that squeezes out the side with the brush and let dry for 15 - 20 minutes.

  • Add a top coat with Mod Podge. Let dry for several hours before applying the Dimensional Magic, so that it doesn't crack or bubble.

Notes

Add the Dimensional Magic carefully, pricking any bubbles with a pin (sometimes I remove them with my finger too). Let the Dimensional Magic dry in a warm area. If it's too cold, it will crack!
