INSTRUCTIONS

NOTES:

Let dry completely between painting steps.

1. Trace and transfer the provided pattern on the plaque with tracing & transfer paper and a pencil or stylus. (Omit the detail lines.)

2. Use a 3/4" flat brush to paint alternating sections with Santa Red and Snow White. Let dry completely.

3. Use the pencil to draw the detail lines as shown on the Snow White sections.

4. Use a #2 round brush and Festive Green to paint in the detail stripes.

5. Use a flat brush to apply a ring of water about 1" from the plaque edge. While wet, pick up a small amount of Snow White on the corner of the brush. Apply Snow White by sweeping around the wet area to create a highlight.

6. To keep the letters straight, use a ruler and chalk pencil to lightly draw the lines where the lettering will go.

7. Draw the lettering on with a chalk pencil or use your favorite stencil. Use a brush and Lamp Black for the lettering. (Or use a cosmetic sponge to apply Lamp Black if using a stencil.)

8. Fold strips of tulle like a fan. Staple or tape one end to hold together.

9. Position and secure the tulle on the plaque with hot glue.
