INSTRUCTIONS
NOTES:
Let dry completely between painting, stenciling and gluing steps.
- With a chip brush, paint two coats of Americana Decor Chalky Finish in Romance onto the wooden square.
- Mix Delicate and Romance to make a bright pink color. Dry brush the mixture over the Romance shade, purposefully allowing the Romance color to show through.
- Using a stencil brush or cosmetic sponge, lightly dry brush a border all around the square using Romance, with emphasis on each corner.
- Using a chip brush, paint each heart with two coats of Rouge.
- Place the Distressed Harlequin Stencil on top of a heart. Using a stencil brush, dab on Dazzling Metallics in Mink Pearl. (If desired use painter's tape to hold stencil in place.) Repeat on other heart.
- Paint the edges of the square and both hearts with 2 coats of Mink Pearl.
- Position the hearts, as pictured below, and attach each one to the wood square using E6000 Glue.
- Paint wooden letters with 2 coats of Dazzling Metallics Festive Red using a 1/4" flat brush.
- Using a small brush, apply Craft Twinkles in Christmas Red onto the front of each letter. Load a large amount of Craft Twinkles onto the brush, apply onto surface, and move around with brush until glitter is evenly dispersed.
- Using a small brush, apply Craft Twinkles in Sparkling Pink onto each letter, on top of the Christmas Red.
- Referencing the final image, position and adhere elements onto wood surface.
