  4. Using the Script Liner with SC-2 Melon-Choly, apply 3 coats to the flowers. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  5. Squeeze out around 1 tsp of SC-89 Cutie Pie Coral onto the palette. Take the pencil eraser and dip it into the glaze. Stamp the center of one flower. Repeat for each flower.
  6. Using the Script Liner with SC-33 Fruit of the Vine, apply 3 coats to the flat edges of the bird. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
