What should I apply to protect the paint?

I've revamped an old chest of drawers, "cartoon style" for my daughter's bedroom. Sanded it all back then applied paint. I mixed "mark out spray paint" and white poster paint together in a tray then sponge painted it on. 3 coats. Used acrylic paint for the black edges, and permanent marker and laundry marker for the cartoon details. What can I apply as a protective coat that won't make the paint run and will have a matte finish?
