INSTRUCTIONS
- Remove all backing from the frame, make sure to keep the clear laminate.
- Mix Sky Blue and a touch of Ballerina for a light blue. Use the mix to paint the entire frame.
- Prepare five cups of paint: Add a touch of Sky Blue to Night Sky to make a lighter blue. Add a touch of Ballerina to Pink Tropics to make a medium pink hue. The other three cups are Soft Jade, Ballerina, and Sky Blue as is. Mix each cup of paint with an equal amount of Pouring Medium.
- Set up a pouring station by placing cups or something similar under the frame and place the cups and frame into a foil pan. (The cups will keep the frame elevated while pouring.) Layer each color into a large cup and pour the cup over the entire frame.
- Paint the photo backing in Ballerina. Let dry and Insert the backing and the laminate back into the frame.
