So I came up with idea for some nursery decor for babies and newborns using my acrylic poured canvases. I wanted to still see the whole acrylic pour but wanted the letters to stand out and the rest be subdued so I thought about one of the pours I did where when I used Modge Podge and sand it subdued the acrylic pour and allowed some to show through but not at full strength.

I used my Cricut Explore Air 2 for this project but you can also draw on your acrylic pour and just paint the Modge Podge around the letters. I just found it easier to have the Cricut cut the letters out of vinyl and then paste them onto the acrylic pour and put the Modge Podge and sand over the whole thing. Then I just peeled off the vinyl letters and voila!

Though the letters didn’t stand out as much as I’d like so I used some watered down gold paint to accentuate the letters even more and I LOVE the result! It’s a super cute personalized nursery painting with baby’s name on it!
