5. If one area gets too opaque with color, simply dab off some of the paint with a paper towel. (TIP: this adds a cool texture as well if you want to leave it, if not- add some Fabric Medium to your brush and paint over area to blend.)

7. Paint one entire side allow to dry and paint the opposite side the same way.

8. Print and cut out provided template.
