Any tips on spongepanting the colored photos or should I just skip that part?<br />Thanks in advance for your help!!Gladysnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757268945896823956.post-9128789154528705232012-01-27T11:37:33.930-08:002012-01-27T11:37:33.930-08:00@Christina and Niki: I am so sorry that happened!...@Christina and Niki: I am so sorry that happened! There are only two reasons I can think of. The printed picture wasn't a laser print or some of the paint from the canvas (If painted black prior) had a blue base and it came into the mod podge a little. With the puckering, I would try applying a tiny but of mod podge (Under the pucker if you can) and place the canvas face down onto wax paper. Cover with heavy images, directly onto the canvas and the wood, then leave the picture over night. Some if not all of the bubbles or puckering should go away. I hope this helps!Pepperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16106158469065385570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757268945896823956.post-23771066143292568462012-01-27T10:36:20.696-08:002012-01-27T10:36:20.696-08:00Christina, I experienced the same thing!

I went to Kinkos to print them off my USB drive and discovered that I didn't know how to go about doing so. Did u use regular printer paper to do this or a special type of paper? Is printing with laser ok? Do I need to make the picture black and white first (they're currently in color) before printing it? I'm sorry for all the questions but in very grateful for your help.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757268945896823956.post-25302780889649168262012-01-06T10:21:57.880-08:002012-01-06T10:21:57.880-08:00@Amy: I am so sorry that your photos ended up wit...@Amy: I am so sorry that your photos ended up with lines! If the lines are from the Mod Podge, trying to use less next time might help. You can water down the Mod Podge to make it thinner, which in turn makes it easier to apply a nice even coat. You can use a damp (not wet) sponge brush and run it across the dried Mod Podge lines to thin then out. Or, my favorite...apply Modpodge in the opposite direction and you will end up with a grid-like texture similar to a canvas! I hope this helps! <br />~PepperPepperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16106158469065385570noreply@blogger.com
