Samples shown are for inspiration. You can use this technique to cover your canvas and then use your canvas as a background for “Scrapbooking on the Wall” or grouping pieces together and adding embellishments of AccuCut shapes, ribbons, buttons-anything you wish to use!

1. Place canvas on table on top of sheet of newspaper to protect your table surface.
2. Pour a pool of Mod Podge or Gesso medium in center of canvas. Take a fork and start to spread the medium over surface of canvas. Stop within 1” of edges.
3. Take color choice(s) of acrylic paint and randomly drip down paint on top of medium. Take your fork and swirl it through the paint to create a marble- like pattern. Also continue to spread mixture to canvas edges at this point. Be careful not to over mix the colors while swirling them across canvas.
4. Last step is to add more paint drops randomly around and lightly swirl these to give you a contrast design with darker color touches.
5. Leave to dry for 24 hours on a level surface. When dry, you can paint edges of canvas with acrylic paint color of choice, if desired.
