INSTRUCTIONS

1. Lightly sand the surface of the tray with 220-grit sandpaper. Wipe away sanding residue with a damp rag; let dry.

2. Basecoat the sides of the tray using Periwinkle.

3. Using Dried Clay, paint a horizontal line in the center of the tray. Periwinkle, Blush Pink, Wild Berry, Dried Clay, Summer Squash, and Magenta create a sunset. (Keep warmer colors in the middle and cooler colors toward the edges.)

4. Over the original horizon line created with Dried Clay, paint over another horizon line in Soft Black. Paint the silhouettes of palm trees and umbrellas across the skyline using Soft Black. Let dry completely.

5. Center the Good Vibes Only stencil over the bottom half of the tray and dab White Wash onto the surface with a cosmetic sponge.
