If you are using a white image and painting the plate a color, you will want to spray the back of the white image with white spray paint
*This will keep the color from bleeding through the sugar skull
Spray the front of the image with E-6000 Spray Adhesive and apply to the back of the plate
Add the skull first and then the flowers
When dry, spray paint the back of the plate in a color you like
Seal the Back
