  2. Use the pencil to sketch curtains in the windows.
  3. Using the Script Liner with SC-16 Cotton Tail, apply 3 coats to the trim on the campers and the inside of the mug. Allow glaze to dry between coats. Be careful not to get glaze on the trim during the subsequent steps.
  4. Using the Script Liner with SC-37 Ivory Tower, apply 3 coats to the bottom half of the campers. Allow graze to dry between coats.
  5. Using MC-002 12mm Low Track Masking Tape, tape off the bottom and top stripes on the top half of the campers.
