Key to my heart valentine burlap door mat

I found my inspiration here http://honeywerehome.blogspot.com/2013/01/valentine-ideas-diy-door-mat.html
She had purchased her door mat at target.  Then she wrote the words and heart on.

 I had these awesome rooster rugs lying around.  I purchased them from the dollar store a while back
 I cut some white fabric and mod podged it over the rooster ( to act as a primer)
 I cut and mod podged burlap over top of the fabric layer.  I used the iron on low to smooth out wrinkles.  I forgot to take pictures of the next step.  I cut a freezer paper stencil on the silhouette machine.  I ironed it on.  Then sponge painted.
Here is my finished rug.  Sorry it's sideways. I couldn't get the picture to turn:(
