    NOTES:

    Some steps may require several coats; allow to dry in between steps.

    1. Paint both cactus vases in Green Tree.
    2. Instruction #1
    3. Blend Vintage Brass and Sapphire to make a dark green and 24K Gold and Aquamarine to make a lighter green. Blend the dark green from the bottom of the vase up and the lighter green from the top down, creating an ombre effect.

    5. Add Pearl to the light green mix and blend it down into center. Blend the original light green mix all the way down to the bottom.
    6. Instruction #3
    7. Remove the artificial flowers from their stems and stuff them in the openings on the vase, pinching them tight if needed.
