I know…I’m so neat and tidy. Ha ha.
Then I just painted the chevron design over the whole thing with craft paint. I did have to be careful not to get the foam core too wet because it made the outer layer of paper start to bubble a little. Since I was going for a rustic look, it wasn’t a problem for me. I just smoothed it out and glued a few edges back down after the paint was dry.
Anyway, there you have it…the cheater’s way to make “pallet” art!

I love how clever this is and so pretty!
I want to do this as well, did you use tape to make the white chevron lines? I am worried peeling it off once done painting would peel the paper off the foam board.

@ColleenI was worried about the same thing, so I cut a zigzag line out of cardboard to use as a stencil and traced the lines on with pencil.
