Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Using the Soft Fan with FN-001 White, apply 2 coats to the entire truck. Allow glaze to dry between coats.

  5. Use the pencil to sketch flowers with 5 petals, ivy leaves and single, small leaves in groups of 2 or 3. They do not need to be perfect, just try to evenly space them out. Add berries in the bare spots (groups of 3 dots).
  6. Using the Script Liner with CN 507 Neon Red apply 1 coat to the flowers. Apply a second coat and shade the edges with SC-74 Hot Tamale.
  7. Using the Detail Liner with SC-26 Green Thumb, apply 2 coats to the ivy leaves. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
