I made a collage for a project at work. On one side was a photo, and the other was non-flat mixed media: gold flakes, gears, pressed flowers, glitter, etc. I used the Satin Modge Podge recommended by Lyte because I really liked how it came out on Lyte's project. It did look good on the flat photo but was "meh" on the non-flat mixed media side of my collage. Probably that side of my collage I should have used a spray. I needed to seal the objects and glitter on top but the Satin tamped them down and took away their shine and 3-day effect. It was still nice but could have been better- the side that was mixed media - nonflat. What do you all think of my idea to use a spray for next time, unless it's a simple flat paper clipping or photo? I felt like the Satin not only impeded the 3-day-ness of it but also took away the shine of the glitter and gold flakes and such.
