I wanted to share a project that was featured in January at the Creativation Show in Pheonix, Arizona. This project was made with Leisure Arts Diamond Art product to show as a sample for the show. When using Diamond Art it is very important to seal the project when you are done to keep all the diamonds in place. As a Brand Ambassador for Beacon, my go-to product is Beacons Fast Finish Decoupage. It is not like any other product of its kind, it's a liquid instead of a pasty/thicker texture allowing you to get in small areas, no brush marks, and even distribution. For Diamond Art, this is perfect as it runs down into the crevices and seals the diamonds wonderfully.
This was a 24" x 12" canvas that I applied the finished Diamond Art Elephant and adhered to the painted canvas. I added some faux greenery to make it look like the elephant was coming out of the jungle. Finishing touches included Prima Marketing, Inc. flowers, and an interesting piece of wood.
Pour the decoupage all over the Diamond Art piece and spread around with a brush, let dry.
Thank you for stopping by!
