I saw this idea from The House of Smiths last year and couldn't wait to try it!
I started with a wood plaque from Hobby Lobby ($3).
I then placed a push pin in each corner of the plaque to keep the paint from sticking to the newspaper.
I covered the entire plaque using "Santa Red" Americana Acrylic Paint (3-4 coats).
You can apply this paint with a foam brush but an actual paint brush (1 to 2 inch width) allows you
to get the sides a little easier. Lastly, I cut my design out on white vinyl and
placed it on the painted plaque after it dried.
